Anybody catch the opening ceremonies? That thing with the blocks replicating waves rippling in a pond was amazing.

Tried to watch Judo last night but fell asleep.

I saw like 10 mins of the opening ceremony. That's all.

Does honesty earn respect or inspire revenge? Is it smarter to attack the strong or annihilate the weak?

I saw the block waves, China coming in, and the lighting of the flame. That guy running on that wall like fifty million feet high thing rocked so hard!

Never thought I'd say it, but this volleyball is pretty intense.

Apparantly USA hasn't won a gold medal in volleyball in 16 years.

And I agree. This is ridiculous. They are insanely talented. Like robots. From Japan.

For the record, I also like beach volleyball.

But for very, very different reasons.

=D

But you're totally right about their talent. I'd say that I could do better, but then I'd just get smashed in the face by a spike.

And lose any dignity and pride I might have had.

Is there anywhere online to view this stuff? I have a feeling that NBC will only show events USA is in, and I want to see ALL of it

Direct TV has some all-Olympic channels. Don't know otherwise.

EDIT: And I think the team that wins three sets first wins.
