Great music selection. Neil Young is about as universally liked as chocolate.

Bit of a snub by the IOC. typically they declare the games "a great success" not friendly and spirited.

I don't think Rogge does that. The guy before him whose name I can't spell did it.

Ah, gotcha. That Samaranch guy or whatever his name was. It makes sense, I always thought that declaration was a little silly.

Opening Ceremony was 10 times more entertaining, but the closing ceremonies have been pretty damn good.

Now, Nickleback is gonna burn this motherf'r down.
