[jakerobins]

Watching the start of the Olympics in London......Anyone else?

[jimbo123]

It sucks so far.

[Repeal 16-17]

Already saw it over the Internet (BBC broadcast).

[aberaussie]

Yep, I was looking for the live thread. Loved the children’s choirs.

[jakerobins]

Worth sticking around for? or so boring that I should grab the flipper and find something else on?

[Principled]

If there is already a thread, I don’t see it so thanks for posting. Some unhumble FReeper will let you know if it’s a dupe. Don’t worry.

The commentary is horrible. They need to just STFU.

My family is watching a movie, so I’m recording it for later viewing.

They sang "Jerusalem", my thought was 'Did somebody say 'mattress' to Mr. Lambert?'

[Nowhere Man]

I started one but I’ll move here. Smokestacks! Call the EPA!!!!!

[yarddog]

I only watched a small part of it then got bored.

I noticed the children’s choir which sang Jerusalem was at least half Black.

I will have to say they did a great job. It was one of the best renditions of the song I have heard.

So did the US dip the Flag or not today?

That was to be the big No-No this year.

[Repeal 16-17]

Nothing great. I like seeing all the countries, but China did a better job.

They don't even have a real cauldron!

[sauropod]

Certainly looks pretentious to me. /hurl

Watching it onm y 1982 Zenith, It's weird that I'm using the same set I watched Torvill and Dean along with Mary Lou Retton on. B-)

There was a post earlier about the torch carrier kissing his boyfriend.

Is that true?
