So why not with the Olympics too? It's probably true.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03852215140285669492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28043809.post-58791913538709341392008-08-21T16:32:00.000-07:002008-08-21T16:32:00.000-07:00I've tried the whole TiVo approach to the Olympics...I've tried the whole TiVo approach to the Olympics. Turns out you just pile up hours and hours of events you'll never get to watch. Like one of these days I *am* going to watch all that Badminton.

Something to do with us winning medals in it or something.stuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16388674850920848503noreply@blogger.com
