I thought that was a pretty big Olympic sport.

No. You probably did, but bigger things were happening then.
Bigger things. And yes, we do have people in Taekwondo. (In fact, a whole family is in there. )

Edit: Closing ceremony today. Time goes by so quickly... :blink:

Heh. Never did watch any of it. (I rarely get to watch what I want on T.V. )

London's Mayor looked as if he'd just been waken up. Poor guy.

I liked the part where David Beckham kicked the soccer ball/football to the volunteers. :D

I like Prague's logo. It's so simple and colorful. (It didn't make it to the next round though.)
