Opening Ceremony

I normally watch the Olympics for the sports and try to ignore all the froo-froo, but I regret not catching all of the opening ceremony this time. China wanted to make a statement, and boy did they ever. I got in on the middle after getting home from swimming and tried to watch as much of the rest as I could while cleaning. Really spectacular and amazing show. I'm going to have to find some video later to try to watch the whole thing. For now, an article with slideshow.
