Is anyone watching the Closing Ceremonies? So far, I've seen a quite eclectic selection.
I think so far, the highlight has been when Eric Idle, one of the Pythons, came out and sang "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life".
Just found this link:

I say this all the time and people seem puzzled by it. It's pretty straightforward AFAIC.
7PM, NBC.
Nope....don’t get NBC on the TeeVee.
Not to worry about the Red Sox, they stomped on what was left of the Indians today. As for me, I will try to catch the ceremony at 8pm, hopefully NBC won’t screw that up too.
4pm Pacific...the Flame is out....see you in Sochi!
Oh look...it’s the Who....
Yep, watching in Tokyo!
I wonder how Bob Costas and Al Michaels feel about sharing space with Ryan Seacrest?
Watching The Who!
Hell, yes!!!!!
Yeah, that’s from a famous British comedy series called Only Fools and Horses.......it is actually very funny.
On the whole, this closing ceremony has been utter crap.

Yeah. Snicker, now the Stank Sox are higher up in last place
A little hint. Bobby Valentine is a double agent. Nuff said
Worse then the opening? I thought that was a PC piece of garbage. Reminds me of South Parks version of a non-offensive Christmas play
Yeah, probably not.
I am watching Rory Mcilroy win today. He made just about every putt.
Overall, it wasn’t too bad, it got better towards the end, IMHO.
Though I dread why they always have to include that Ode to Communism, “Imagine” into the ceremonies.
The IOC had time for this tho.. but not for the victims of Munich 1972..
Is London's 2012 Games just so much Munich 1936's with the manufactured hype and shocking behavior, from twittering to doping..
Does history repeat itself? Will Rio happen? We still got Sochi in 2014.
Party On!
