Turns out, she was just mimicing because the one singing wasn't cute enough for chinese television.<BR/>Then you have the athlete who threw his bronze medal onto the floor because he thought the match was biazed.<BR/>Then you have the Chinese gymnastics who have suddenly and mysteriously become a few years older than they were a few years ago (they registered at younger ages in competitions last year.)<BR/><BR/>I don't know, but it seems to me that the focus is not the regular whining (weird food, too crowded, too cold/too warm...).Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08091095507746436222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-47277708646021961652008-08-15T15:44:00.000-04:002008-08-15T15:44:00.000-04:00Its been a while.

I'd have more to say about the Olympics if I had TV, but I do not, so I don't.<BR/><BR/>But I did manage to catch some of women's swimming yesterday after scurrying back inside my friends house while his BBQ got washed away by the weather. What's up with them? When guys swim it seems like they burn all the fat off their bodies and they're these walking masses of muscle. But these women look weird, manly not because they're ripped (like the Volleyball players) but just because they're big and hulking and (facially) unattractive. Is it like a requirement that you have to be scary-looking to be a female swimmer? How unfortunate.Ruvymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18207933326556984972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-75865964112872010242008-08-15T07:23:00.000-04:002008-08-15T07:23:00.000-04:00thanks for coming by, Sally!Yeah, it seems like NY...thanks for coming by, Sally!<BR/>Yeah, it seems like NY is immediately identified with street ball. <BR/><BR/>Hi Olivier<BR/>these men, women, girls and boys take their hoops quite seriously, lol. And good point about the US team. Funny they haven't won anything with all their mega stars<BR/><BR/>Hi Lily<BR/>I'm not sure when the Olympics is over. I don't think there is too much left? <BR/>You live in a cool part of town. So lucky. I'd love to live there but would be afraid I'd be distracted all the time by so much going on. It's so charming.<BR/><BR/>Hi Eva<BR/>welcome home! I cannot imagine being away for four weeks. <BR/><BR/>Americans tend to elevate everyone to the level of celebrity. I was hoping to see what other countries do. I'm curious to know what negative stories you mean.<BR/><BR/>Hi Tammy<BR/>I feel bad for you not watching tv, but then, you'll come out with more brain cells than the rest of us, lolKittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13260829805068114560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-76609175746320525972008-08-14T18:35:00.000-04:002008-08-14T18:35:00.000-04:00It's on constantly on the Canadian channels.

It's good to be back on your site.)<BR/><BR/>I haven't watched the Olympics so I have no idea what the coverage is like over here. I have noticed that there is a lot of negative stories coming out, not the interviews with gold medal winners we usually see. I think it's sad for those who compete.<BR/><BR/>I love your picture. It's like I remember the baseball courts from NYC.<BR/><BR/>Hugs from Eva :-)Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08091095507746436222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-13546282059482612008-08-14T10:05:00.000-04:002008-08-14T10:05:00.000-04:00I was just over there yesterday telling my nieces ...I was just over there yesterday telling my nieces that in the five years I lived in the village, I've never once walked by this court when it was empty! There is always some action going on there.<BR/>I think I am the only person not watching the Olympics, I better start before it's over.<BR/>When is it over?dianasfaria.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10488357854017358868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-80623612818797037562008-08-14T08:25:00.000-04:002008-08-14T08:25:00.000-04:00quand je viens à NYC, j'aime bien aller voir les m...quand je viens à NYC, j'aime bien aller voir les matchs de playground, c'est assez prenant, impressionnant.
