I always love to watch the Olympic sport on TV and it will be no different this time. But it might as well be in Mongolia for all I care, I ain't going anywhere near it.
And I ain't watching that waste of money they call the opening and closing ceremonies. Not even on TV.Comment

Incidentally, 2012 is the third London Olympics.
At the first one in 1908, British police teams won all three medals in the Tug 'o War. I wonder if whoever presented the medals greeted them with "Hello, hello, hello"?Comment

The olympics are going to be at least 10x as big and will pretty much paralyse a transport system which is already bursting at the seams. It will be a lot easier to enjoy them if you don't have to put up with that for 2 hours a day just to get to and from work.one day at a timeComment
