Opening Ceremonies 2008


It's fun to watch the Olympics. I also enjoy watching the opening ceremonies. The refresher course in geography is especially useful for identifying countries like Kazplakistan.
Anyway... the Dutch always wear orange (see photo above -- dig the orange ties) when representing their country. Why? Because of William of Orange. Who is William of Orange? Well, read up on it to figure it out and why he's such a big deal to the Dutch. I just threw that in there for dad who I know reads this. The legacy LIVES!

that's a great photo, the orange really pops LOL

not at all into the Olympics - for so many reasons that I will spare you.

I looked up William of Orange - Go William! :)
