I just got done watching a scary clown marching band play YMCA by the Village People in Italy. This confirms my beliefs that the closing ceremonies are entirely unnecessary.

I was able to sit through much of the opening ceremonies. First off they were broadcast in HD, and that is still cool enough to hold my attention. The second reason is that after the opening ceremonies, I know I will get to watch all sorts of cool Olympic sports. The closing ceremonies on the other hand promise nothing afterwards. Am I supposed to watch them so I can have closure? I’m not sure why I’m supposed to watch them, because it certainly isn’t for the entertaining value of the closing ceremonies themselves.

Now I’m being forced to watch Dancing With the Stars. AHHHHHHH! I can’t complain too much though, Stacie did let me stay up last night and watch Saw 2 when she went to bed.
