Bread & Circuses


The drama has been building???


Did they mean the dramamine?


On Tuesday, the Olympic mascots will be revealed.


Oh yes, how I've writhed in my sleepless bed.


All this time and human energy and money for a 2 week party in the snow.


Imagine, just try to imagine, if the same amount of human resources - hundreds, no thousands of jobs, million of dollars, all those meetings, lunches, notepads, laptops, emails were focused instead on the homeless or housing, on transportation in our cities, on education, on child care and senior care.
Imagine.

Hi David. I always thought those Inukshuks were originally supposed to be grave markers in the arctic.
Then again, it could be a prediction of the future for the Olympics.
Have a nice doomsday!
