Wow. With all the history and greatness to celebrate, we got the industrial revolution and a celebration of nationalized healthcare?

They might as well of had a celebration of bad teeth.

An episode of Downton Abbey has more action than that opening ceremony.

And did anyone see those giant children’s book characters? Is it me or did it seem that L.A. Eucharistic conference lent the Olympics their liturgical puppets?

They put on a billion dollar spectacle and the best part by far was Mr. Bean making silly faces.

Somebody suggested that through the ceremonies, Britain was sending a stern message to the world. Don’t mess with Britain or we will bore you death.
