Wow, I'm the guy who usually bugs other bloggers to put stuff on their blogs, I better stop being hypocritical. Hmm, let's see... Have you all got Olympics fever yet? I don't think I do. I developed immunity somewhere between 1998 and 2000. Up until the Sydney Olympics I loved them, barely missed a night. Then for some reason, I became strangely Olympics apathetic in 2000. I couldn't really explain it. None of my friends or students at the time seemed that interested either. I do still love the opening ceremonies and Parade of Nations, though. I don't know that the Winter Parades of Nations are as impressive, but we'll see. Also, maybe they will have some kind of kooky way of lighting the torch? It is in Italy, so maybe they will have Alberto Tomba la Bomba fly a helicopter into it, or maybe old women dressed in black will hit the torch with their purses until it ignites. Let me know what happens, I'll be watching "Arrested Development" on Fox.
