The Olympics (1/?)

As far as opening ceremonies go, I didn't thing that one was ALL THAT; who knows, though, since NBC usually cuts all the moderately interesting bits for fear of offending someone in Dubuque with nipples. Cooper and I got pretty ripped and made Communism jokes all night.

The weird part is that I don't remember us doing Yakov Smirnoff.

I friggin' love Badminton.

The Olympics (2/?)

Some hilarious comments from my brother:

Robert: (frowns) "Oh, I wish this was play-by-play instead of color commentary."
Me: "Yeah, Bob Costas sucking ass is one of the universal experiences of the Olympics, Robert."

About five minutes later.
Bob Costas, on a British swimmer: "Her name is Hannah Miley! Ha ha, my kids are going nuts."
My brother: "NOOOOOOO, GOD. BOB COSTAS."

It was time, what can we say?

On an even more cynical note, sarcoidosis? OH, is that what's we're calling it now? Who catches pneumonia in Chicago in AUGUST?
