*** The French put on a lame show.***
That’s the same adjective my husband tossed tonight. Totally agree. When did the French become lame?

Off the olympic topic, but I saw a video today which said the Butler, PA building's roof slope was less than that allowed for wheelchair ramps by the ADA.
Safe enough for cripples, but not the elite Secret Service.

Switching to movies. Last night was “To Kill A Mockingbird”. I’m Scout.
Tonight we’re watching Men In Black (I). Love Tommy Lee Jones.

I was actually excited to see this.
It really is a cool concept.
But, I think the execution could have been handled much better. Not over 3 miles, for starters.
This underlines the fact that too much emphasis has been placed more and more on catering to TV audiences. I’m starting to think if you get a ticket to opening ceremonies, you are being ripped off. You’re sitting in one area and will hardly see anything, except those damn JumboTrons they think are substitutes for direct viewing. If I wanted to see it on TV I’d stay home.
This could’ve had so much potential.
Comments on other aspects would take too much time. I can write a whole column about this.
BTW, nothing is as bad as England celebrating its socialized medicine in its stadium.

That was my first thought as well. Think of how small the carbon footprint would be if all events were held virtually, with the athletes sitting at home in front of a computer. For example, this could be the ski-jump competition:
Do it, Olympic committee. Do it to save the Erf!
