And I agree with the comment, only SC may be able to dance for a couple of hours.

Those cheerleaders are pretty good!

Oh, I think I'd be down to wiggling my toes and one finger on each hand by now.

The kids managed to find many 'humorous' ways to use the country Jabouti in a sentance.

Sorry, I didn't see an Olympic thread started.

:)

The Opening Ceremony was lovely. My favorite part is always the parade of nations because you know for some of the athletes from these smaller countries, this is their moment.

But Matt Lauer won't shut up.

The Statesiders look nice.

The torch lighting is amazing.

This entire production raises the standards for "spectacular."

I had fully intended to check in for FNGD last night. I am usually not so enthused with opening ceremonies, being impatient for the competition to begin. But I could not tear myself away from the set.

Incredible production.
