Are you going to the olympics?

im going to be in europe but i dont think ill go, not becaue of terrorists but i dont think the games will run very smoothly and accomodation is going to be hyper expensive

and then there are these bombs which keep going off there (although im not too worried about that), has anyone heard of the "Revolutionary Struggle" group thats planting them? what do they want?

remember the sydney 2000 games? best 2 weeks of my life

I can't afford to go, and even if I could I wouldn't- I hate crowds.

Besides, I can see it on TV for free...

My company is doing the IT for the Olympics..

I've put my name down on the "volunteer" list, to be considered for a placement over there during the games.

Here's hoping. :D

Well, there would have to be a lot of it to drown out the number of times the Star Spangled Banner* gets played at medal ceremonies.**








*that is the name of the American national anthem isn't it????







**I'm not American, I'm just stating a fact.

I am more concerned about the crowd's reaction during the opening ceremonies, you know when the Americans march out.

I will not be going to the Olympics :!:


I find it much easier to observe them on television 8)

I'm not too interested to become targets for terrorists. Such events are more enjoyable and less gory on the television - at night too!
