I’m glad I was able to go to Paris years ago, before the troubles. I wouldn’t return there now.

I'm ready, OP!

My cousin and I were talking about this yesterday, saying that after all the political craziness of the past 2-3 weeks, the Olympics starting this Friday will be such a welcome distraction I'd bet for most everyone.

The forecast for Friday is RAIN.

Lol.

That should put a damper on the outdoor opening ceremony.

There's only a six hour time difference from the northeast so quite a few events can be viewed live at a decent hour.

I was ready for the Olympics last Friday, but they kept us waiting for too long, so now I'm not watching. I might tune into the L.A. Games if I'm over this slight by then, but I'm definitely watching the Brisbane ones.

Is the hot cry baby swimmer in these Olympics? I thought he was hot as hell but the pining for his wife and parents made him sound like he would deliver a dull fuck.

I'm not sure it's an indication that he's a dull duck, but it is an indication that he cries when he ejaculates.

R26, Ryan Held cried in Brazil, and so did Caleb, so maybe Ryan is who was being referred to.

The guy at R29 is not the same guy as R28, but they do look similar.

[quote] Food becoming an issue for athletes in Olympic village

Food has become a major issue in the Olympic Village as the Paris Games are underway. Adequate food supply and uncooked meat are among the concerns.

Grilled chicken and eggs, in particular, are among the items in short supply. As a result, some athletes have resorted to bringing packed meals back to the Village for lunch and dinner, according to the Times of London.

British athletes are staying away from the restaurants in the residential complex and officials have sent an extra chef to Paris to provide proper meals for the team. Caterers are working to increase their food orders — especially in regards to eggs and chicken, which Paris Olympics officials wanted to source from France.

"At the beginning of every Games there are usually two or three issues and the transportation is always one," British Olympic Association chief executive Andy Anson told the Times. "But the big one this time is the food in the village, which is not adequate."

Paris Olympic officials attempted to offer more plant-based foods in an effort to reduce the Games' carbon footprint. While there is a variety of cuisine available to accommodate the tastes of different countries — and an abundance of baguettes in France — vegan meals aren't in line with what the athletes prefer to eat while competing.

One British athlete told the Times that the food situation is chaotic compared to the well organized facilities in Tokyo.

The Village provides approximately 40,000 meals a day with 3,300 seats available in the facility's main restaurant. Some countries can't get meals anywhere else but the Village, while Great Britain's athletes are housed in a part of the village near the River Seine that has a separate restaurant and performance lounge.

Wow, when the food is so bad even the British won’t eat it.
