Daily Olympics Update : Opening Ceremony Now Over (Olympics Has Begun)

As of 7:30AM or so this morning Hawaii time the 2008 Beijing Olympics began when the Opening Ceremony ended. Which means by tonight when network TV actually gets around to showing the Olympics the actual Olympics will be underway with the first day of events. That should mean that they should be starting 24 hour coverage right off the bat after the opening ceremony since the Olympics would already be in progress once it's done... you think they're going to do that or make you wait until Saturday morning? Hmm... I wonder...

Anyway anyone think the Chinese got about to adding me to their restricted list of sites they don't want anyone to see... nah, I'm the least of their worries. As it turns out the rest of the world is China's greatest PR nightmare as somebody forgot to tell the people over in Georgia (as in Russian Georgia and not USA Georgia) that they're supposed to stop fighting and be all peaceful like during the Olympics (they're still going at it even now with much innocent blood spilled because of the conflict). Hopefully some attempt at resolution brings about a end to violence soon.

Well it's going to be about 10 or so hours before TV shows what is already done with so I'll be back about them to post the pic of the day (for Saturday) and check the news for the day on the Olympics. See you then.
