Beijing Olympics: Smooth As Expected

I've been reading editorials about the recently-concluded Beijing Olympic games all day, and I'm surprised to read that many are surprised China did so well, both off and on the field. I'm not. When you spend $40 billion, not including billions spent on a state-supported athlete factories, and the ruthless ability to control every aspect of the games with little or no dissent, things should go smoothly. It would be a shock if things didn't go smoothly as planned.

Funny Clip

Still on hiatus, but I thought I share this funny clip from 30 Rock, one of the funniest shows on television:

On Hiatus...No, I'm Not Writing A Book!

I'm taking all of August off. Too busy to write anyway. Busy on a project at work, a lot of paperwork to do, errands to run, and completing items that have been on my 'to-do' list forever. No time for play except a few rounds of video games.
