i'm sure we'll struggle through with the warm knowledge that the french would
kill to have that problem.

what happened to the announcers? did their mics break in the
middle? then after
that it sounds like we are hearing the radio chatter of the camera crew or
something.
yeah they had audio problems in the middle. there's a morning show here in
australia on channel 7 called "yum cha" and they mentioned they had audio
issues on the night.

oh yeah??? no mention of the ozzies then.come on,you cant complain about
the
word chinks with out complaining about the word ozzies.
plus,any nation that beats the fook out of its own people just for trying to
speak out for themselves deserves a lot more than me calling them chinks.
i'm an australian and it's aussie fyi, not ozzies. and it's not racist it's our
national chant and it's what we call ourselves.

i'm sure the english opening ceremony will be fine. i thought the chinese one
was great, it was really important to me...i'm a naturalized us citizen, but i
was surprised at how the opening ceremony evoked strong emotions in me. anyway,
it was great, but they spent like $300 million dollars on the opening ceremony.
it'd better be worth that much. at first i thought having that many performers
was too much overkill, then i remembered (stupidly) that there are so many
talented people that would do anything for a chance to perform there, so i'm
happy that a lot of performers were given that opportunity. also, when the guys
are running in circles against each other, towards the end, there was one guy
that almost stepped into the wrong spot but corrected himself. i thought that
was funny, i was hoping that someone would make a mistake because they were so
unbelievably in sync.
by the way, 93percent, using these derogatory terms is so stupid and there's no
use in trying to justify one by using another.
edit: edited the screenname, got it wrong at first, sorry!

our government is way to bureaucratically and with all the stupid
health and safety rules we have i doubt even the facilities will be ready for
the opening!
yes, do away with the safety rules and sacrifice some workers to build olympic
monuments that will be only used the one time and then left to rot! china\'s got
the edge cause they don\'t bother with such trivialities as workers\' safety. we
should all take the example, and while we\'re at it produce more dangerous
products too, i mean, so what if you get electrocuted from your toaster if that
sucker only cost a couple bucks? worth it!

i'm from china and i'm glad ppl enjoyed this as much as we sure did.
i know how some ppl from other countries would like to see or call china and i
don't think there's much use in debating whether this is right or wrong.one
thing for sure is that chinese ppl are trying, and hopefully the olympics is a
good start.

you are pathetic!
if you want to know china,just come to see what china really is with your own
eyes.
i'm always wonder why so many guys are so naive to believe everthing the
infamous medias told.
you are adults , not some naive children.
