    I was watching a bit of the closing ceremonies and the camera caught the Lopez kids who all won medals in the judo competition.

    THe announcer then stated that they were coached by their former brother.

    Hmmmmmm.

    ---------

    Do the closing ceremonies look more like a Disneyland Main Street parade more and more?

    I still stand by my original thought, that the whole thing was exceptional! Of course, I say that every 4 years. Just to be there for a little of it makes me envious. And I agree, Mary Carillo did some really neat things in her reporting. I like the way she and Bob Costas mesh, as if they are really good friends. They may be for all I know!

    18 months until we get to see the Olympics again, winter sports, in Vancouver!

    Richard, it is good that you took advatage of having the Olympics in LA and took in some of the events. I wish I had tried harder to attend some in Atlanta in 1996. I was there the weekend after they ended, just to enjoy some of the sights, but of course, it wasn't the same.
