lanovami hours ahead of you Registered: 05/02/05 Posts: 6836 Loc: 東京都	So Tokyo is officially the host for the 2020 Olympics. Great. Now we can sweep mounting problems at Fukushima Daiichi under the rug, forget about all that claptrap about becoming a leader in renewable energy, among a host of other problems. We just go the Olympics, nothing else matters... _________________________ We are what we repeatedly do - Aristotle

The image of Godzilla showing up in the end and breathing fire on all the smiling athletes just makes me smile. Now, the same thing at the Paralympics, that would just be bad taste of course. Not funny. _________________________ We are what we repeatedly do - Aristotle

Agreed. Also there are those things of which we peons have little or no control so I make jokes of them. Dave _________________________ There are 10 kinds of people.

In 1996 when they had it in Hotlanta and we lived there - our family took a 2 week vacation so we'd be "outta Dodge" and the congestion !! IF I'm interested in a sport or athlete, I'll watch it on TV for FREE !! :-P
