This ceremony kicks ass. Nice to remember how much of a kickass country the UK is. Musical, literary, intellectual, sports legacy to rival any country even double its size. Invented or codified 8 out of the 10 major sports in the world, according to some random newspaper I read.


Indeed. It's also hard to believe our small country was responsible for ruling a quarter of the worlds landmass and 1/5 the worlds population at one point.

Industrializing early due to geographical location has its benefits.


And now all that makes it so hard for them to accept their new role in this world.

Why Greece first? Because they are dead within the next couple of years?

I liked it and find that most people probably dont remember the beijing one. I watched it this morning and was impressive but so was this one.

Now Im just curious to see who lights the big torch.
