  WannaBe: Re: Olympics Opening Ceremony:

What a bunch of crap... Crap, crap, crap!!

End of story.

  WannaBe: Edwards admits affair, Russia bombs ex-conquered republic, biggest propaganda put on by China for the Olympics...

2008 is turning out to be another great year!

Aug-09-08  achieve: <WannaBe> Thanks for the uncensored, unabridged, personal account of events! (really)

Everyone "here" is raving about the Opening Ceremony, at the same time asking opinions from people (like Bettine Vriesekoop, Dutch table tennis goddess from 10-20 years ago) who have lived in China for many years, admitting that they TOO are unable to properly assess the true meaning of the Chinese soul; it's traditions and culture...

NObody *knows* anymore, except of course those involved in secret trade missions--- they can just calculate the # of dollars that will flow their way, and that's that.

End of my story.

  WannaBe: This is absolutely hilarious/disgrace, depending on your point of view, that little boy, marching in next to Yao Ming, (The earthquake survivor, and rescuer of fellow school mate).

His (little Chinese) flag, that he is waving, is upside down!!! (Subtle hint? Maybe...)

My favourite uniform, are the Swedish Women's... Nice National Colour, but in the Chinese style...

My favourite women so far, are the Irish, they look so beautiful!!

  WannaBe: 1. I'm surprised that the People's Liberation Army haven't dragged that little boy outside and executed him for embarassing the great country of 'Middle Kingdom' and its flag, for waving it around upside-down.

2. I wish I lived in a country where women without their faced covered can't be shown. It would have cut down the 4 hours of NBC's coverage down to 45 seconds...

3. D@ng, those Irish women looks good.

4. D@ng, those Swedish women in their uniforms looks good, too! (The design is in traditional Chinese, but the colour is the Swedish national colour! Very nice touch).

5. NBC just keeps on showing that little boy on TV, maybe trying to keep him alive for another 5 minutes...

6. Did I mention how them Irish women looks??

7. Putin is laughing his a$$ off, he is in China, while a war is going on, and he can claim he had nothing to do with it!!

  WannaBe: So nice to see the IOC flag passed to a bunch of goose-stepping army boys... Reminds me so much of Berlin.

  WannaBe: They've got a guy, carrying a torch, 'walking' on air, to light the Olympic flame, while the scenes of the relay over the last year are shown behind him.

Unfortunately, none of the protest scenes across the World are shown... And Chow Young Fat would have done a better job 'walking' on air than that dweeb.

  WannaBe: Thanks to all the fireworks that was set-off, all the out doors track & field events will be held in 2036, when the smog and all the pollutants are cleared.

(And the runners are well into their middle-ages...)

  WannaBe: Oh, thank goodness, NBC just interviewed Yao Ming, and he is holding that little boy...

(The flag is still upside-down...)

But that boy is still alive, but with the 16+ hour tape delay, I can't really tell what has happened... Maybe with luck and mercy from the Chinese government, he is making the next Nike Air Jordan version MCMXXIV...

  chancho: <WannaBe> Did you see yesterday's epi of Monk? It was hilarious.
Aug-09-08  arifattar: What an absolutely stunning opening ceremony. I have been watching ceremonies since 1984 but this was something else. I couldn't believe what I was watching when the final torch bearer started that lap in the air. Incredible. Finally, the BBC seems to have stopped its 'smog' coverage but SKY TV seems to be carrying on.
Aug-11-08  ravel5184: Why the postponement?
