   Hope you’ve got it DVR’d and are watching from the beginning. It’s pretty astonishing.

   Actually, it was fucking unbelievable.

   depends.

   Shoot fire! I would’ve loved your play by play. I wish I could bring it back and deliver it to you right now! It defies description.

   I watched a few of the first nations pass, then got up to come out the patio.

    Lighting the torch: another pant shitting moment…

    Watching it on Kenya TV is interesting. There is no commentary, which is refreshing. Right now I’m just watching an empty basketball court with no explanation.

    I saw from a distance so I only sharted but concur for the most part.

    heh, depends.

    generally.

    Derek
    The commentary was almost unbearable.

    I think I’m watching it on CCTV from now on. Maybe any commentary I can understand will be relevant and interesting.

    Or at least not personally culturally embarrassing.
