Posted by Julie in : Daily Grind , trackbackThoughts on the Olympics opening ceremonies, in no particular order, taken from my IM conversation with Kim L.:
“Ooooh, Centaur.”
“Ooooh, gods and goddesses.”
“Awww, look at the kid in the boat. Wait, he’s heading for the sinkhole in the middle! Watch out, kid!”
“Wouldn’t it be cool if the drummers fell in the water?”
“Blue hair. More blue hair. Purple hair.”
“Yay, the Afghani women aren’t wearing birkas!”
“Yay, America! Hey, they’re cheering for us! They like us even though Dubya is our President!”
“What letter are we on in the Greek alphabet? Aren’t we done yet?”
“Yay, Canada, our neighbor to the north!”
“Where’s Barbuda? Is that like Barbados?”
“Jump, Cube Man! Jump, jump!”
“Damn, they drained that water fast. I wonder if it made a sucking noise?”
“Wait, it’s sunset there. Are we on a time delay? Damn time delay!”
“Yay, Mexico! I’m so moving there if Bush gets re-elected and Canada won’t let me in!”
“YAO!”
“Hot (Mozambique, Irish, Norwegian, British) guy!”
“Why do the Koreans get to have a joint team? Why can’t we have a joint team with Canada? The Northern North America team!”
“Are we at the end of the alphabet yet? No? Damn.”
“Stop! Stop with the marching! Light the torch!”
“I thought the Greek alphabet ended with Omega. Didn’t they already do the O’s?”
“Why are there all these old people? Is there some sedentary sport of which I’m unaware? Shuffleboard?”
“They’ve got to be almost done! The middle’s almost full. Fuck! Twenty more nations!”
“Nice hat.”
“Way to wear a sarong, buddy.”
I would write more, but it’s still going. And all comments are going to be about how long the parade is lasting. Get to the torch lighting, already!
