People here have line up to save 4c a litre .. which is like 1.00 to 2.00 depending on your tank size - they crazy people!!

It can't really be that much different than many high school football programs who practice for 2 + hours before school and 3+ hours after school and all throughout the summer and are encouraged to use steroids for the false hope of playing college ball which equals (for most of them) 4 years of hi...

AND they said that the Olympics would be exciting . . . rowing and badmitton are not exciting. neither is swimmy or diving. I mean seriously . . . it is painful to watch some of these people f' up as bad as they are . . . like those girls in doing gymnastics . . . why do people in the audience appl...

Now they are admitting the little girl didn't sing either---the real little girl that sang, wasn't CUTE enough :( http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/news?slug=ap-china-lip-synchedsong&prov=ap&type=lgns A 7-year-old Chinese girl was not good-looking enough for the Olympics opening ceremony, so...

Depends on the country playing ....

We get Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport and Down Under playing when the Aussies are on the sand!

I believe the teams pick their music.

Six medals in the last 20 minutes!!! and three world records? incredible! great olympics for American swimmers, for sure! And congrats Creeky to your fellow country-woman Leisel for a gold! :D Thanks !! We were pretty nervous - we really wanted her to win after her disappointment in Athens! We are ...

We unanimously decided that while Phelps might have a good physique .. his mouth is too big for his face :lol: :P We were totally unimpressed with our television broadcast - three medal ceremonies while we were at lunch - all for USA .... we were just waiting for Leisel Jones ceremony - to all sing ...

China 1 USA 1

(you apparently faked landing on the moon)

If you just keep doing it long enough (not crossing Ts or dotting Is), people just ignore you and pretend you are not a disturbance. :lol: that happens??? :o :lol: fa real. get the fa outta here!!!! You two are just tooooo funny!!! I would love to hang out or be a fly on the wall with you two toget...

There are definitely crazy people everywhere, I don't think anyone will argue that. Whether this was a random attack on tourists or one targeting Americans may never be known. But a bombing in Beijing on the heels of this attack doesn't bode well for a peaceful Olympics. :-? :( Not sure if the olym...

Popcorn gets stuck in my teeth ... got anything else ? Pineapple pizza? I had that for dinner last night :lol: (with ham, onion and cabanossi - a cured meat product) mmmmmm cabanossi .....we get some great cabonossi at a little shop on the waterfront hmm ... cabanossi on pizza followed by some pav!...

I'm sooooo glad China got these Olympics. :roll: This was to be Beijing's "coming out" party. Let's hope they can keep the killing down to a minimum... both tourists and dissidents. I guess that there has never been anything bad like this ever happen in any other Olympic host city :roll: ...

Sorry BEG - didn't mean to spoil anything for you .... :-? I will try to be cryptic or hold my posts until later. Creeky - sounds like you guys have allot more coverage (or I don't know all the US sports channel options.) Interesting that you categorized your country anthem as "solemn" - ...

we just saw about 20 seconds of that award ceremony Creeky - very nice!!!! I am impressed that your country women KNOW their national anthem and can sing along....that is cool. Well you do have to admit - it is a easy song - even I can nearly carry it in tune :lol: . It was a little too solemn - it...
