Indeed. Go Australia.

Or should that be "gone Australia" now? Never mind. We were shite. But slightly less shite than we usually are. And at least we've found our niche. We can row! Yes. Only another 9 million events to crack now and we'll be unstopable.

Now we have to wait 16 months for the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City, Utah. After that, it's 2004 in Athens, Greece, then 2006 in Italy, and 2008 is undecided yet, but will most likely be Beijing.

Bartender: Beer, it is.

I can't wait for our team to arrive home.

They'll disembark the plane to cheers and shouts, get the red carpet over to their government-supplied limos, which will then blow up.

That's how we do things here.

No, the 2008 games will go to TORONTO!!!!!

That is, if City Hall could get its damned act together.

You know, It would be nice tosee the events live. I love the womens volley ball, gymnastics, Baseball and softball and wrestling, but I wouldn't want to put up with all of the people and traffic the games would bring with them.

I have to ask, did anyone here manage to see 'The Dream' it was a show on during the olympics hosted by two Australian comedians 'Roy and HG' they're Mascot was FATSO the FATARSED Wombat!

I'm wondering if anyone saw it overseas... I've seen a few foreign media talking about them... It was the highlight of the Olympics... they completely took the piss out of everything and everyone... (i.e. payed out or made fun of if you don't know what 'take the piss' means ;o) )

The did some comentary for the Male Gymnastics, the Judo and the funniest, of them all, them doing their own commentary for the Greco-Roman wrestling! LOL! They called when one has to get on the mat on all fours... 'The Dog' and they had their own names for all those gymnastic moves, like 'the battered sav' (when they drop to the mat with the whole body) and 'hello boys' well when they did a move where you basically get a face full of their 'boys' (see Kramer from Seinfeld's definition of 'boys' ;o) or the 'dutch wink' (when they did a leg split)

You really had to see it I guess

Andrew
