Phosphorus8 0 #2 August 9, 2008 I thought it was awesome, I don't think I have really paid that much attention in years past though, idn't know it was always such an over the top show! I also had no idea how many of those countries I would not be able to locate on the map! Need to catch up on my geography I guess!

bigway 4 #4 August 9, 2008 That's Chinese Military for you! Fair enough China having their Military as the main entertainment but i think it is a real shame to learn that an estimated more than half the people in the stands were also Chinese military or Police. They have put an awesome event on and the place looks so different from when i was there last. For a country that has 7 million people born every year they sure have everything under control. So much meaning in that ceromony, really nice tribute to the earthquake victims with the flowers i thought. I always thought this would be an event of all events, I mean any country trying for a century to host an event is sure to make it one not to forget. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
