Damn, it was a good show and unfortunately they&#8217;re not doing it this time around.<\/p>\n<p>The other thing about <em>The Dream<\/em> is it reminds me of just how fantastic things were during the Sydney Olympics. I&#8217;m something of a cynic but I look back and think that September 2000 was a good time to be alive. We&#8217;d just hit the millennium and it really did feel like the world might just stop being a shithole for once. There really was a lot of goodwill happening &#8211; towards Aborigines, towards women, towards other nations. North and South Korea marched together. And we were not taking it too seriously either, as you can see with Roy and HG. Everybody just wanted to get together, party and pretend that peace really was possible.<\/p>\n<p>And then, pretty much a year later, two planes went into a building and it all went to hell.<\/p>\n<p>Ah well. Enough negativity. Enjoy Roy and HG &#8211; and the evident excitement of the rowers. &#8220;They&#8217;re definitely not coxless teams.&#8221;<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So the Beijing Olympics are in full swing and that means I&#8217;m getting terribly distracted by gorgeous male swimmers, gymnasts, divers, rowers and&#8230; well pretty much all of them.
