U.S. women’s soccer team starts Olympics with comeback win.
The United States’ Olympic campaign got off to an inspirational start with the women’s soccer
team’s 4-2 come from behind win against France on Wednesday.
It was a rematch of the 2011 Women’s World Cup semifinal, which the U.S. won 3-1 before
losing to Japan on penalties in the final, and a difficult way to start off the group stage of
the tournament for both sides.

The Opening Ceremonies just started. The choreographer, Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire), knows he cannot "out-do" Beijing but also knows he has a clean slate upon which to build his vision.

Boy , what an attention whore the Queen is. It's supposed to be about the athletes.
Bow to the Queen, bow to the Queen. Good boys!

I do hope that you are being sarcastic. I thought the part where Daniel Craig went to pick her up and they both jumped out of the helicopter was priceless.

I was being sarcastic during the last sentence. I was serious during the first two sentences.
As for that parachute drop being priceless, I am sure there was a price tag associated with that stunt. I wonder who is picking up the tab.
