I managed to avoid all of the Olympics yesterday. It seems a little insensitive to say it, but thanks Russia and Georgia for pushing swimming champs and posh horse riders off of the front pages of even the tabloids.
Of course if Tanya was here she would also be praising the Russians, though I imagine on the spurious grounds that this international incident was sparkeds by the fact that the B-52’s and R.E.M. all hail from Georgia. Her grasp of geo-politics was always shaky.
OLYMPIC MINUTES SO FAR: FIVE
