There we are. Nice jackets, bad hats.
I wish they gave them cowboy hats, it fits us better.

Nice to see the US chose the “Judge Smells” costumes, to honor Ted Knight in Caddyshack.

Is this Mexican music for the USA team or do I just have a hearing problem?

Team U.S.A. (wearing sharp outfits with nifty white caps) getting great cheers from the Chinese. President Bush joins the hosts in China in giving hearty applause to our team.

ROTFLMAO!! That supports my position that we need to dress as revolutionary war soldiers or cowboy/girls next time.
I’m really glad you popped in. You always crack me up!

“Power of the Dream”, wasn’t that Salt Lake?
To: Girlene
Did Matt Laurer just say Russia crossed Georgias border today to defend the area?
Didn't catch that - he did say Putin was dealing with a 'Russian military crisis in a breakaway republic in Georgia'. Made it sound like the poor Putin was forced to deal with some kind of terrible unfairness...
