Inactive I don't think that China deserves to have the Olympics. The country doesn't provide properly for its own people but of course there's money to build all of this olympic stuff...ticks me off...and you know the extra money that China gets from the added tourism that is caused by the olympics won't even go to the Chinese people.

You know, I've never watched the Olympics before and I will say that I never will.

Smile

Oh and FUCK apparently we're having the "winter olympics" here in vancouver? Like in a year and a half or two years ? (I have no idea when they run during the year)

Shit man, I'm gonna need to bunk with one of you all. Let me know who's willing. Fuh-ck.

Dude part of being selected by the Olympic committee means they gotta improve the city. As a result of potentially being up for 2016 Chicago's being strongarmed into finally fixing its public transportation shit.

Yeah we're getting some cool new toys.

And lots of debt. Should be great...


We're getting lots of ... sky trains? What do you call them in America? We call them sky trains? Is that a common name? Oh, monorails?

Yeah, we're getting more lines.

And you wanna know what's fantastic? Okay, so the sea-to-sky high way that runs from Vancouver to Whistler is being repaired. Fantastic.

But, we need a new bridge INTO Vancouver from the suburbs.

Guess what. A TOLL FUCKING BRIDGE IS GOING UP!

(toll bridges are pretty rare around here! I know they're common in major cities in the states and probably around the world but not here)

That's fucking dumb. But what do you expect?

The highway to the richs' playground gets fixed at tax payer expense and the poor working folk have to pay a toll to go to work!

FUCK!

I can't wait to have all these new fabulous buildings ... Sorry. THE BILL for them.

What a selfish business grab the Olympics are.

Whoa. I should really control my random rage. The end.

the opening ceremony was definitely the biggest in in ceremony history(which isn't really that long, since it doesn't really get "WOW!"ish until Atlanta in 96), but if you were to take out the artistic quality of it(as in, the caligraphy, the beeeeeeeautiful costumes, etc) you don't really have much except for some lights and lasers. Considering it was the opening for, you know, a sporting event, i would think that more sports-based acts would be involved, for instance acrobatics, dancing, yadda yadda yadda. But, hopefully, London will be able to fill the void of human, not technological, achievement.

Also, does anyone else think it's funny that the events that the Chinese have put the most stock into(including the 7 or so years of Project 119) are remarkably individualistic for a nation still championing communist ideals?
