I knew my sense of Greece was closer than the elite European writers sense they all hate us.

I bet that the movie, "My big fat, Greek Wedding" was a smash hit in Greece. I saw some comment in the media about people giving the team "thumbs down" but when I watched I saw and heard nothing but praise. The team that got little applause was the Turks, of course. Best opening ceremonies I have ever seen. The water really worked. Reminded me of "Cirque De Sol."

Great News, Michael: The U.S. team received a huge cheer from the packed crowd of more than 70,000 Friday as they marched round the Olympic Stadium at the opening ceremony of the Athens Games.

We can shout...the European media can button it if they wish....
