I guess this means we’ll be going to war with Brazil in a few hours...

If I had to attend in person Rio would certainly be my first choice!

Guess I'll have to add Blame it on Rio to the top of my Netflix queue. Haven't seen it in years, but it was a very funny film!

I would have been very disappointed had Chicago taken the prize. And it would have nothing to so with Obama’s actions whatsoever. A billion dollars is a huge bet, and that's in today's money. Imagine what it could be by the time the 2016 Games actually get underway.

We have had the Super Bowl a few times and I dread that week to ten days.

I hope they clean up the crime. When I was there in 1985 as a youngster, I was half asleep in the backseat of the car at a red light and this woman beside me was getting excited about something, I lifted my sunburned head to turn to see the car behind getting held up.

I guess the cops in Rio will be making a lot money between now and 2016.
