Wow. I bet a lot of the day was spent waiting in line.

We’ve got a touch of Olympic fever, here at my house. We’ve stayed up late every night so far, but our viewing habits will have to change shortly as we are back to school in 2 more days. That includes me, as I’m an aide at our local elementary school.

Do you know of any Olympic athlete couples? I’ve been doing some research and haven’t heard of any for the 2008 Olympics games. If you know of any, please share in the comments. Thanks.

Lots of Olympic talk around the B5Media. For more stories on China and the Olympics check out –

Update – Big Day For Weddings In China

Couples married on Friday will be taking part in a promotional event, wherein they will sign a billboard that states, “A century of the Olympics; a century-long dream; a century-long prayer for happiness; a century of perfect marriage.”

Okay, I get the dream and the prayer, but where does the “a century of perfect marriage,” fit in with a country that hold a 39% divorce rate?
