北京 2008 has begun. My friends and I have already started things off with a bang by participating in an opening ceremonies drinking game. We had to drink if any of the following were mentioned by the announcers:

  • Human rights violations
  • Pollution
  • The athletes’ ceremonial uniforms
  • “The 29th Olympiad”

plus a few other additions that, to be quite honest, I don’t recall. Needless to say it was a fun night.
