Holy! good thing we caught the show on the Canadian station!! Kudos to NBC for the Winston Churchill / America's place in the second World War special *after* rhythmic gymnastics, though, right?
Has said onesie already been an avatar, or is this something entirely new?

They [The Who] got preempted by NBC's new sitcom.
No foolin'. Now that is awful coverage. I've not worried too much about the way NBC flung everything around their family of networks, but when you don't make a way to show the whole closing ceremony, with the advantage of tape delay, even, then your heart is in the wrong place. In this case, in your self-promoting wallet.

I agree, JP. That's pretty crappy....though not really surprising.
Amie, the Onesie was just a recent request by some Canadian (cough-cough-Fred) Sicko.

Gotta love it. Following the closing ceremonies of the $14 billion Olympic games, Prime Minister David Cameron held a global hunger summit at which he stated:
"The figures are truly shocking. One in three child deaths are linked to malnutrition, and 171 million children are so malnourished by the age of two that they can never physically recover. That is the terrible thing about this, what we would call a 'silent crisis,' because it harms for life."
What a smack in the face to malnourished children - often suffering with kwashiorkor - and the now 1 billion people in the world that go to bed hungry.
The only reasonable argument for owning a gun is to protect yourself from the police.

Is there even a stat for that?
I finally watched the USA-Spain gold medal basketball game off the DVR. There was so much flopping going on from Spain's players that I now understand why this Frenchman would do this. Aggravating to no end.

France should get the country of Italy to kick Spain in the nuts. Sicily might break off, but whatayagonnado?
