I've been watching and following the Olympic Games opening ceremonies since I attended the 1976 Montreal Olympics and this years opening ceremony, in my opinion, is a hot mess. I mean what was all that about?
Okay we can celebrate the industrial revolution and all but come on, at the Olympic games?, just because it's being held in Great Britain?
None of it seems to fit in the general idea of sportsmanship and games, and as much as I hate to say it China put on a better opening ceremony, I guess the fear of being beheaded has it's effects.
I'm sure by tomorrow after we start winning all the gold metals I'll feel better but right now this Olympic games has a up hill climb as far as entertainment is concerned.
It seemed so unorganized and in disarray. The only part I liked was the celebration of the national health care system they have over there, other then that,... They can keep the rest of that foolishness.
This is the dumbest opening ever, I guess I just don't get it, all that British culture stuff and all, Mary Poppins, Harry Potter, Chariots Of Fire, Mr. Bean, who gives a dam.
I guess the musical history lesson was alright, but you'd have to be in the right mood for it.

Okay I'm going to stop bashing these U.K. games and try and appreciate the fact that the opening ceremony is almost over. At least Sir. Tim Berners-Lee is there, without his efforts I wouldn't be ranting about this opening ceremony on the Web, I read his book, "Spinning the Semantic Web" not bad but he's a bit off.
I can't close this post without mentioning Mitt Romney and his first trip abroad as a Presidential hopeful, to sum it up in as few words as possible,..... Twit.
