poor australia

first the australia delegation arrived at the olympic village and the apartments were broken and unfinished, an athelete almost electrecuted himself in the shower

so they went to a hotel until fixes were done, at the hotel some kids tried to rob them out front when they were heading out to eat, big aussie bodyguard knock a kid down and the other ones ran away

now they returned to the olympic village on friday and their floor caught fire after some worker threw a cigarette butt slit lit near one of the paper decorations with the country colors they have all over
 
Almost every Olympics as long as I remember had portents of doom as the games approach. People predicting things wouldn't be ready and there would be all kinds of organizational/circumstantial disasters - but then the games start and everything is basically fine and all the doom-sayers are forgotten.

Rio certainly has the negativity in the lead-up. I wonder how it will go.
 
I am pumped. Fun fact

If Chicago had received this Olympics. My house would have been 225 yards from where the velodrome was to be and about a quarter make from the BMX track

Of course we wouldn't have been able to afford to buy here either.

So I ain't missing youoooo Velodrome
