The five Fuwa mascots
Is anyone else fed up with all the political banter surrounding the China Olympics coming up soon, on 8th August 2008? I sure am. It’s time we celebrated sports and the hard work that China has done to prepare for what will hopefully be a great 29th Olympics 2008.
To help you all to get in to the mood for the up-and-coming festivities, I have found some online goodies for you to see related to the Beijing Olympics 2008.

Be sure to catch the Beijing Olympics on 8th August 2008, at 8pm (China time) on your TV screens. In addition, I’d just like to remind readers that it’s my blog birthday on the same day! Cool, huh?
Beijing Olympics ‘Bird’s Nest’ Stadium, China
I say we lock up and give a good thrashing to subversive hippies and emo teenagers and anyone who talks about politics during the Olympics!
The BBC ‘Monkey’ advertisement is pretty cool but I won’t actually watch any of the Olympic coverage.
Go go New Zealand Olympic team! Show what an amateur off the farm can do against all these state sponsored professional athletes!

To Dan-
Actually I rather like being a teenager talking about politics surrounding the Olympics, but I can’t exactly complain my head off on here in case the entire of the Western world come and bash me or something. ;]
Lol quite a few people don’t understand the advert because that story isn’t exactly as well known as, let’s say, Mulan. Although it is pretty cool as you said.
Hope you’re well-
