President Jack, "I want to thank all the developers and business people who will make a boat load of cash based on these games" and "I also want to thank all the volunteers who will do most of the work to make these games successful and will work for nothing except some Olympic clothing". Let the games begin.

I don't feel good about these Olympics. I think something devastating may happen. Also, what's up with the title of this article?

A lot of people actually are predicting a nuclear attack. I really really hope nothing of the sort happens.

Hey, there's only room for one cynical jerk in this thread, and at least I'm not as unfunny as you.

So, what did we learn today?

* Britain = LOTR + Steel (I mean, a LOT of steel!!)
* British pop is one limitless supply of insider jokes
* Mary Poppins owns Voldemort
* Yi is the Chinese GOAT
* That Fiji flag bearer is the greatest hunk who ever lived
* The lighting of the Olympic flame was great in several ways
