| Finally... something else worth watching on TV, The Secret Millionaire. There's something we can learn from these people. Not the millionaires necessarily, but definitely from the recipients.

| A beautiful story of a star running back sacrificing his body and stardom for the team. |
| |
| Courageous story about a woman swimming again in the same ocean she witnessed shark attack. |

| Loving the Olympics!!!
Didn't see the opening ceremony but from the scenes that are available, simply awe-striking.
Michael Phelps, the story of the century. A (super)man accomplishing unprecedented feat with such humanity and thrilling contests!
Beach volleyball, super exciting to watch.
U.S. men's basketball, dominating!!
Track and Field... disappointing for the U.S. so far, and Usain Bolt is delightful to watch...
Gymnastics, everyone's routine is simply amazing to watch. Okay, so I'm biased. But it's incredible what they can do. What what's up w/ the women's judging?!! So maybe I'm not a professional, but I think I've had enough experience to see that the judging is simply unfair!! Unfair and biased towards the Chinese gymnasts. I mean, the most exemplary one being women's vault where the Chinese bronze medalist fell and touched her hands on the ground on the landing and still yick out a score without much deductions? I'm sorry, but what's up with that? That happened in individual uneven bars and throughout team events. As a fan of gymnastics, I'm losing confidence and interest in what is an exciting sport. IOC, do your job or lose your audience.
Of course, the main story is the compilation of what all the athletes bring to the games, the amazing gift they bring, the talents they exhibit, and the inspiration they strike up, seeing what our bodies are capable of. What a blessing.
