Olympics Opening

The magnificent Beijing 2008 Olympics opening. I only saw part of it on tv, but it was really cool. Image source: globeandmail.com

Let me share something funny. There was one day when I received a mail in my inbox. It's calling out to table tennis players, for someone to do the live commentary for Olympics. The email said:

NBC (official Olympics broadcaster) is working with the World Championships Sports Network (WCSN) to do live streaming of of table tennis events from Beijing via the NBC website. To enhance the online experience, they are looking for people that can provide live color commentary (live blogging) that will be displayed on the web next to the streaming video of matches. Commentators will work from NBC's studios in Stamford, Connecticut.

So I was like, that's REALLY coollll!!! But then on 2nd thoughts, I can't even fluently name the table tennis strokes in english. -____- Argh I'm so useless.
