Brazilian people are the nicest and most liberal in the whole continent.

I foresee a massive summer of love.
Hummm...

Of course it´s an extreme example: we don´t need another München 1972.

Rio has security problems, infrastructure issues... but the people is happy and hospitable.

We have too much work ahead!

I always love how most americans who haven't even been outside their state borders can get all high and mighty about other countries' problems.

Hey boy, you do know that unlike the average american, not every person on planet earth feels that if you can't stuff your face with pastries and oily take-away food every 4 hours, you will die of hunger.

I liked the actor... but now... 😛

Thanks, Lord: the Squid (Lula) is goin on! The next President will be the Anemic Vampire, aka José Serra. He will organize the Olympic Game/2016.

PS: why Lula?
Because is a nickname of Luís. It´s like:
John -> Johnny;
James -> Jimmy;
William -> Bill;
Luís -> Lula (not Squid).

I have the impression that Atlanta 1996 was the worst in recent memory. Badly organized, grossly overcommercialized, meanspirited, heavily criticized.
