So early...this should be good. Can't believe nothing on tv.
Fight the good fight: It's nice to be great but it's far greater to be nice.

The women's 100m victory ceremony is going on now. It's becoming so usual we sometimes take it for granted, but the stadium is full even though Liu Xiang wasn't scheduled to run tonight.



I am sure the women's pole vault has something to do with that :)
