Looks like Chicago is out of the running for the 2016 Olympics. I am bummed but not surprised. I had decided that I was going to go and watch if it wsa in Chicago. Has anyone attended a swim session at the Olympics (if you swam in one, that more than counts, but I am wondering about spectating!)?

I will be paying for the Rio Olympics, I mean that literally. Somehow big Brazilian government ends up subsidizing all this stuff. New, let's start learning a few basics. We speak Portuguese in Brazil, so it is not "cerro" but "monte", Pão de Açucar (sugar loaf). From the tourist point of view, Rio is probably the most beautiful city in the world. I hope they clean up the lake in town for the rowing and other stuff, and the bay for the sailing. The swimming facilities built for the Pan-American games were state of the art, until Beijing came up. billy fanstone (safely 1000 miles away from Rio)
