    For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

    Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

      I've enjoyed the opening ceremony so far. It's certainly original.

        It’s so French, but mostly Parisian French. It’s been a lot of fun.

                      I didn't see, but were the North and South Koreans on the same boat?

                        I really hope this Olympics gives us one more round of Jimmermania.

                          Cook n' Bacon bring the U.S. their first medal (silver) in synchronized diving. I watched the qualifying for that event and they were a lot of fun. Good for them.

                                Crushed them. Uncharacteristically bad showing from Australia, too.
