I've been watching quite a bit! For some reason, I find it very interesting this year. NBC is doing a decent job broadcasting, though the usual cheese is present.

I was very impressed watching the men's gymnastic team get a bronze medal. I can take or leave the swimming events, and volleyball is OK. For me the highlight is week 2 and the track and field events.

I just heard Country Roads during a women's beach volleyball game between Germany and Brazil. It was a disco version and the crowd was singing it LOUD!

We are hoping to get the 2016 Olympics here in Chicago, so if Jake makes it that would be very cool.

Chicago would be a fantastic site for the Olympics!
On a side note.. Several years ago I had a comatose patient from Japan.. She was an LSU student here on Spring Break and she was a near downing victim..
Anyways her family had a little cd player in the room... and it constantly pklayed Country Roads in Japanese.. It was this little girls favorite song..
