Is it just me or did the Olympics get BORING?
Remember when all you would hear about was hoe polluted the air was in China? The marathon runners were going to die if they needed to breathe during the race.
And then the Chinese were going to shoot some crazy experimental science gun into the atmosphere to stave off rain.
And then there was that fake Chinese girl that was prettier than the real chinese girl.
And then that dude killed somebody and jumped off a building.
And swimming was still going on.
Action packed, right?
Now, I love sand volleyball as much as the next guy, but I have hit my quota. Somebody needs to accidentally throw a shotput into a car window or I am clocking out of this whole Olympic thing.

Hey Jeff,
Sounds like you survived your journey to LA. Congratulations!
Over the past couple of weeks Craig Ferguson has commented quite a bit on the Olympics on the LATE LATE SHOW. Since you probably weren't able to tune in while driving, here's a little bit of what he had to say on the topic, from Monday, August 11's episode:
"Do you know another reason why I hate the Olympics? Because . . . when the Olympics come on people get up to all sorts of crap, and they think no one will notice because the news cycle is all about the Olympics. Like John Edwards announced that he cheated on his wife, you know, that night. Russia invades Georgia! You think they didn't think about that? They thought about that. The Jonas Brothers released an album. You know they thought about that! I'm watching you Jonas Brothers, with your suspiciously bushy eyebrows!"
Hope you're off to a great start on the left coast!
Regards,
Old ned
