Olympic style

There's a reason governments aren't allowed to dress their citizens on a regular basis. Thank the rings for the people at Roots for making olympic clothing fashionable, or at least, not painful to look at. We won't mention those countries with less fashion sense, or whose nationalism overcame their sense of fashion somewhere between country X and Athens.

Brief opening ceremonies overview - loved the water, loved the parade of greek style. Not a big fan of the glowing womb, but I yield to pregnant women everywhere for their feelings on that one. The point was well made. Also, what fun to see that St Lucia comes first in the Greek alphabet - fun to watch US & Canadian newscasters fight to explain the order to viewers without linguistic experts.
