Olympics 2012, in Londontown

They've got Pet Shop Boys on now.

 

Mr Bean on Chariots of Fire with the London Orchestra was awesome, just perfect. I liked his snack bar and dunkin donuts cup in the background

 

Dunno about the blue wellies but there were some hotties in the Czech lineup.

 

Apparently the Olympians are pounding beet juice.
I am going to try this as a training aid.

I liked the tolling of the big bell to start.

The female doing the commentary on the Parade of Nations on BBC just said that Mexico is "the only country from Central America to host the games" and that their soccer team has a player named "Hulk" (he's Brazilian).

 

Brian Williams on TSN just gave his two cents worth on the whole IOC/Munich massacre argy bargy as if anyone gives a shit what he thinks.

 

That Turkish female volleyballer flag bearer is stunning.

 

Is Grant Hill sitting next to Michelle Obama?

 

Great Thurston Howell III-type unis on the Yanks.
