Notes on the Closing

Due to the lack of anything to do yesterday and inspired by the great Fusla I watched the “closing” ceremony of the Olympics in Athens. For some reason I knew I will need a notepad to take notes. Here it goes:
1. What’s with Sad Old Farts in the beginning of the ceremony?
2. Why the hell do we need a commentary for? I tried to switch to other channels but the same smart asses was on them all.
3. There was this segment where “Tourists” are running and jumping in very happy manner. One of them (she was wearing red) had these amazingly big tits and they were jiggling in a very crazy manner. (yeah, I notice stuff like that)
4.When the French team entered the middle of the circle I saw some of them were holding some cute dolls, any body any idea? I swear to god I’ve seen them before, Just don’t know where.
5. Who was the mohajabah behind the IOC president?
6. What’s with the very short dresses of that Chinese band with weird guitars?
7. Have you seen the look of fear on the face of the little Chinese little girl when they triggered the fire works?
8. What’s with Anna Vissi? The extra slutty-ness? (Greek Britney Spears, I guess) She was singing over the Pulp fiction soundtrack by the fun loving criminals.
9. Have you seen that kite? Tits? On the whole fucking screen? That was fun. I wonder if they blocked it on KTV3, yeah right, like they can.

I missed the beginning but I don’t think I missed much.
Annoying commentary? I take it you didn’t hear the Jazira guy! Not only is the guy annoying but he 20% of his commentary is outdated, vague or completely wrong.
I also missed the lady in red too.
I don’t know why the red dresses have been super trimmed, but I do know the Pipa is an ancient Chinese musical instrument.
Anna vissi still has a great voice don’t you think?
Tit kite? Do you mean the red Chinese lantern shaped stage?
The energy of the opening is so different than that of the closing, I enjoyed watching Athletes celebrate not only their winning but also the participation; the mobile drummer that went around the stadium on a rail was definitely fun. It would be nice to go to Beijing2008.

Like i could really listen to her with all that commentary going on.
No, it was a big kite with a painting of someone’s tits (venus maybe). It covered the whole screen for a second (less than a second maybe).
