WOW I am Nitpicky
I am behind, way behind, I apologize, but I have been spending my evenings watching the Olympics. I think I like the Olympics because of this damn video game I used to play as a kid. I believe it was on the Commodore 64 and was called Summer Olympics, or Summer Games, something like that. I loved that game! It had the Olympic theme song, I thought that was the official, official Olympic theme, but it turns out that there is a different theme song for every Olympics.... WHAT!??!? I did not know this! Well this game had what is by far the best theme song ever for the Olympics and I don't think that any of you can argue this point. It is the one that goes, "dun dun dun dun da da dadle aut. dun dun dun dun dun dun. " Yes, it's the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic theme song composed by John Williams, the guy that wrote the Star Wars and Jaws theme songs. That guy is a genius, seriously, would Star Wars have been nearly as good without the theme song??? Or would Jaws have scared you without his ominous music? I think they should just stop the tradition of making a new theme song for each Olympics and go with the John Williams theme. Again, I don't think anyone can argue that point and I am not biased. This post has absolutely nothing to do with what I intended to write about and that is why the post title makes no sense. It's the Olympics I tell you! Those games have a profound effect on my psyche........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K90GoFrLvVI

That theme could have made a stronger impact on the olympic committee if instead of the flag girls, the whole "star wars universe" of characters came out with flags. Plus a big thing of ETs and maybe a few guys in upright shark costumes. I mean, this was L.A. after all.
Those tricky Communists with their “Birds nest” and “Water Cube” how can we not watch!? I mean, “Water cube?” Is it water or is it a cube? It can’t be both! It is either water or it is an Ice cube. It can’t be a water cube. Isn’t anyone else seeing their trickery? This is textbook communist mind games. They lure us in with the promise of fun and games and some food (that will leave us unsatisfied.) Then we get there and they expect us to swim in a cube of water. Throw in some underage gymnasts, more smog daily than America has had over the last 100 years combined and maybe salt the whole mixture by throwing some Christians in jail just for fun and call it the Beijing Olympics. Like I said, who could NOT watch that? And don’t even get me started on the Olympic Caligula, I mean Village. I just hope the underage gymnasts didn’t stay there.
