2006 Olympics Begin
The XX Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy have begun. The opening ceremony took place last night. (the YMCA, Pavarotti and Yoko Ono all in one sitting).

May the games be competitive and clean, and may I somehow resist the urge to check the internet for results before they are broadcast on TV! plans at least.
