I know! I was like "the scissors thing! and the flying wossname thing! OMG! wheee!" Virtual, no no, vicarious athleticism...

The little girl gymnasts are, indeed, scary, although I don't think they're quite as scary as the team that won the gold (where Kerri Struggs went ahead and crushed her ankle even though they did not need the points to win. Scary, how programmed they are). I'm rooting for the grrl sponsored by Pamela Anderson, wossname, Mohini Bhardwaj, not only because she has things like boobs and hips and actually looks graceful, she is Not that I begrudge 16-year-olds being 16, but it's still always a nasty jolt to hear a 30-year-old athelete referred to as "old"....

The commentators are driving me BUGGY, though. And I thought we'd see more of Athens. Security precautions preventing a lot of scenic taping maybe?
