London Olympics opening ceremony

C'mon, admit it. That opening ceremony was extremely tacky. I had to turn the TV off, I was so embarrassed for the Brits.

It was like they gave a bunch of money -- though not that much -- to the local HS musical director and said, "Go!". It was sour and smelled like worn, sweaty clothes lying forgotten on a basement floor.

And where was the artistic perspective? The arena looked awful and confused, old and uninspired. It was as if artists played no role in crafting the visuals.

What did you think?

Step into a Jacuzzi? I think not.

For the past 15 years I've lived in a house with a nice, big Jacuzzi. I've never used it.

I tried to once. But it made me feel like I had just put a quarter into the machine that makes the motel bed vibrate.

I never tried it again -- though I do dust it regularly.
