Well Said
The Olympics opening ceremony was awesome. Especially the lighting of the cauldron and the performance with the people in white suits on the repelling lines crawling up and down the mesh. (I tried to find out what group this was but didn't have much luck.) But I have to admit to a bit of disbelief when they brought out the Ferrari formula one car, and the driver proceeded to burn rubber all over the stage while the commentator explained how big car racing is in Italy. I think he and I had about the same reaction "..well that's a first for an Olympic opening ceremony". Although I know a few guys from high school who probably wet themselves with excitement.
