We’re all very different people. We’re not Watusi, we’re not Spartans, we’re Americans! With a capital A, huh? And you know what that means? Do you? That means that our forefathers were kicked out of every decent country in the world!
Genius kitsch. Think of it as Ghostbusters/X-Files/Frighteners/Special Unit 2.
That ought to give you an idea.
Maybe.
The Olympics:
1. The Russians deserved the gold in pairs figure skating. Canadian whiners.
2. Sarah Hughes deserved her gold. Russian whiners.
3. Figure skating as a sport is fucked up anyway. Start using the points system, or divide up the medals like they do in speed skating. Short program medal, long program medal, etc. Then we’d've been able to give Michelle what she wants.
4. Short track is a silly sport. Korean whiners. Lucky Australian slowpoke.
5. I watched women’s curling and found it more fascinating than figure skating.
6. You ever wonder if some sniper inside the torch looked through his scope and whispered into his radio, “”I got that child of light in my sights. Do I have a go?”" and got the reply, “”No. But you can take out that dude wearing the ‘flame suit.’”"
7. Best moment came when Belarus kicked Sweden down. Consolation prizes for the US/Canada men’s and women’s hockey games. Let’s face it, hockey rules.
Amazing. As true to the book as you could keep it, though yes yes, the last five minutes departed so much it got a little sappy.
Very nice evening out sort of movie.
