I still hate the logo. And I sorta think Manhattan should be black, because so many Manhattanites wear it.

No money for subways. No money for new schools. No money for housing. Money for a stadium? Doesn't add up to me, especially since Olympics always lose money, and lots of it.

Wow. Should be a breeze getting to work around those "Olympic-only" lanes! If we set this up right, the athletes can spend less time with their feet on the street than the Republicans did. Though I have to admit, some of the pictures in the bid were cool.

yes, i find it amusing that bush being in the white house has the potential to keep the olympics out of nyc. france is counting on it, but nyc2012 officials hope that euros don't vote for paris lest it harm their chances in 2016.

We've been unofficially out of the running for some time b/c of our sorry international relations.
