it gona be 1 big cluster$%%&.

ya hear about the bombings there already, there was a bus and a police camp.

ya probably seen it on news where there were police killed, they wont tell ya why, the police threw these people on the street and bulldozed their houses, id killed some of them too if they threw me out on street.


but half the conutry over there is wanting to stop the olympics and there are a few thatll blow themselves and any1 else up to stop it, i like the olympics but ya wouldnt catch me there.

Heres a site that has an interesting take on the medal count, instead of the number of Gold Medals, they update it to reflect the GDP of the nation, or Medals per head of population. So far Slovenia and Armenia are beating us all.

This thread is about the olympics, not US-Sino relations or terrorism

Out of interest was anyone else hoping for a more spectacular lighting of the cauldron? IMO noones beaten Barcelona when the dude shot an arrow to light it...
