I don't know if the whole china hypocrisy over the topness kind of ruined it for us - the whole opening ceremony cute kids/sappy songs thing - maybe I am just becoming a grumpy old dude.

But I chose watching the Red Sox get hammered to continuing to watch!

I wish I knew when it is over. My menu doesn't specify but if it is ceremony whole time I'm calling it a night.

On edit-It actually does specify it. I didn't notice it when I initially turned to NBC. Good night.
