I'm glued to the games ....after threatening to boycott them .... covid etc etc.
Watched history made today at the men's marathon, and then some .
But, imagine if you will ...you are an alien .... having your first look at this little blue rock...and you home in on the Artistic swimming ....your only shot at reporting back.
What do you say?
Its life Jim, but not as we know it.

I make a point of avoiding all the; "Olympic Games" stuff in the media...

Any time I see any of those types of 'activites' I just think of Billy Connolly's bit on Parkinson just after the London Games...
Watch on youtube.com

6:15 for the Olympics bit.

I also tend to think of it through the lense of that TV show The Games about the Sydney Olympics...
