BRAVO! ! ! ! !


BRAVO!!!!!

With tradition, culture, precision, discipline, ingenuity, talent, originality, and great physical and technical achievement, the 39th Summer Olympic Games has begun in Beijing, China.

Wow!!!!!

From the moment it started, my eyes were glued to my television, as I expected nothing but the best from the talented and disciplined Chinese performers. It was a wonderful, excellent, one-of-a-kind show, and I’m glad that I turned down an evening at a nightclub to witness it.

Every Chinese man, woman, and should be very proud, not only because your country is hosting the Olympics for the first time, but also for the most entertaining opening ceremony I have ever seen. It was nothing less than perfect!

I’m not one to go ape!*&!@ over anyone; not movie stars, musicians, athletes, political figures, or anyone else, and I probably never will be. The last rock concert I saw was in the 1980s, and I’ve never owned a photo or a jersey of a movie star or an athlete, and I don’t have anyone’s autograph. If a giant Broadway play comes to town, I won’t pay to see it. If the President comes to town, big deal! If the Beatles somehow got back together, I wouldn’t pay a dime to have a front row seat! I can’t see paying good money or wasting any time to see anyone who is no better than I am, the Pope excluded. But let me tell you this, I would have paid up to… oh… let’s say $900 to see the opening ceremonies in China, and I would have enjoyed every moment of it!

To the person and/or people who are responsible for the great planing and the production of the opening ceremony, and to the Chinese performers and everyone associated with the production, thank you for sharing this spectacular moment with the rest of the world. Your talents and capacities to execute such an excellent presentation on such a large magnitude was phenomenal. I applaud you! If the rest of the games are as wonderful and well planned as the opening ceremony, I’ll be watching TV for the next 16 days with great passion and excitement.

Thank you, China, for being such a wonderful host for these Olympic Games. The eyes of the world are watching you, and I anticipate that you will present to the world the most exciting and meticulous Olympics ever! You will set a new standard and be a new model for the Olympic Games of the future!

Once again, BRAVO!!!!

I must say i was impressed with the opening ceremony, they clearly put all those people who's homes they took away to good use...though i think been offered a position of a drummer as a bargaining tool was quite a coup...
Something's gonna go wrong....dont you just feel it in your bones.


Whatever I do or say....I come in peace.
