    You would think the mayor of London could have showed up in a better taylored suit. He looks like he might have enjoyed a few pints before the cerimony.

    I'm not going to say Boris Johnson would be a candidate for Upper-Class Twit of the Year.

    No, wait, I am.

    What percentage of athletes on the field right now are absolutely hammered? I'm going with 75.

    What kind of odds can I get on Jimmy Page not making it to the lighting of the torch in 2012?

    They had to. They ran out of table tennis.
    Hey, the finale of the ceremonies is pretty good, if a ripoff of the 1980 opening show in Moscow.

    Was it just me, or did it look like Jimmy Page was faking his guitar playing?

    If you want the truth, Eric Clapton did the solo, but Page is better looking, so he got to appear.
