So the 2008 Olympic Games just drew to a close with another huge propaganda battle and spectacular pictures. I especially liked the well-drilled kids who wouldn’t stop waving and the soldiers in disguise who accompanied the flag-bearers. Lovely!
On a more positive note, doing the medal ceremony for the marathon runners within the closing ceremony surrounded by  thousands of fellow athletes from more than 150 nations was again an excellent idea (I think we have seen that before) and a great sight. The preview for 2012 appears to be very promising as well (David Beckham excluded of course). Looking forward to London!

P.S.: Gruß an Béla Réthy vom ZDF, der Jackie Chan für einen Volunteer hält. Großes Kino! *g*
