I'm a huge fan of Danny Boyle and was delighted that he focussed on the Industrial Revolution, something close to the hearts of us Midland and Northern-based Brits. xVixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4885867892898159023.post-23831176947121288672012-07-28T19:24:17.891-04:002012-07-28T19:24:17.891-04:00I am not a person who follows sports.

I imagine it'd be worth watching for that, but the internet often synthesizes long things I can't keep up with.<br /><br />I am also rooting for Holley Mangold! I did read up on her recently and watch some interviews with her. Have you heard about her uniform issues? Or rather all the uniform drama that's gone on?Megan Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10169811757787686946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4885867892898159023.post-41706169815556022382012-07-28T11:07:08.377-04:002012-07-28T11:07:08.377-04:00I didn't see them, but everything I've hea...I didn't see them, but everything I've heard about them makes them sound like they were a site to see!his_girl_fridayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15478394514503451317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4885867892898159023.post-658984314479915552012-07-28T09:29:31.527-04:002012-07-28T09:29:31.527-04:00Normally I agree with you, Ashley.

Five minutes of Beijing's ceremony was too much for me. <br /><br />I was, however, curious about what Danny would do. His ceremony touched on history (the shift from an agrarian society to industrialization), comedy (the aforementioned Rowan sketch), serious drama (Kenneth Branagh, for goodness sake) and culture (Sir Paul McCartney). Plus, England is reeling economically so we all want to see them rally for a good time. Morale is important when a society is struggling.Shybikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15263331247319768989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4885867892898159023.post-75720550472415490202012-07-28T09:16:29.177-04:002012-07-28T09:16:29.177-04:00I LOVE the Olympics.

But, you know, responsibilities...<br /><br />I didn't watch the Opening Ceremonies. I don't know. Don't really care about them. Is that bad? I'm more into the actual events.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16391786468701848881noreply@blogger.com
