Philippines is still 0-0-0 in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Makes you think that we wasted a lot of money sending those athletes abroad. Then again, it makes you also wonder what kind of training they have here.

I pray one of the Taekwondo reps would win.

Amazing! This guy, Michael Phelps, already got his 8th gold medal at the ongoing 2008 Beijing Olympics! This is his Olympics. And I tell you, it will be a long time from now before another record such as this will be surpassed, if not duplicated.

So people have been talking about the little Chinese girl who sang the Chinese national anthem, who turned out to be singing with a different voice. I wonder why people are making a big fuss out of it. This type of singing, with a ghost singer and the performing lip syncing, is normal and happens all the time. Yes, the Beijing Olympics is a big event. But I don’t think the Chinese people had actually built up the little girl’s singing prowess. They have a valid reason for the lip syncing. Apparently, the original singer doesn’t measure up to their aesthetic standards.

Let us leave it that way and spare the poor little girls these over reaction, eh?

The couch potato was speechless as she was watching the Beijing Olympics the other night. Wow! The Chinese really did an amazing job! I bow down to their expertise in fireworks, lighting and audio-visual presentation. I just had to force my mouth shut every time a new presentation was being performed. That execution of lighting the torch… A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!

Were you able to watch the opening ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Olympics?
