Back The Bid, Baby!

Surprise, surprise...London wins the bid to host the Summer Olympics in 2012! They beat out Paris! Not to mention New York, Moscow & Madrid. I actually kinda felt sorry for our dear friends, the Frogs. They were the favorite to win. When it was time to announce the winning city, all the camera's were on them. They had the band & celebratory theme all ready. It reminded me of the Oscars, actually. Ya know, when the camera zooms in on the loser's face to see their reaction! But one thing is for sure, no other city wanted to win like London. The campaign was shoved down our throats! But I'm happy London won. This is a great city! Trafalgar Square is one huge party right now. It's too bad I'm sick or I'd be out getting drunk too. =) I feel really lucky to be in London right now. Esp after Live 8 and now after winning the bid. It's a great time to be here.
