Olympic assholes

So Vancouver Olympic CEO John Furlong thinks that I should take a vacation or work from home to decrease traffic during the Olympics. Really? I mean, are you shitting me? We're already dealing with cost overruns, the City of Vancouver has loaned $100 million dollars (our dollars: my dollars) to the developer of the Olympic village without bothering to divulge the details to the very people that are footing the bill, and I'm supposed to take my vacation or work from home to ease traffic during this monstrosity of an event that I didn't want to come to my city to begin with?
Um, how about no.
How about that?
Actually, let me look it up in my day planner. Yeah... how about never? Does never work for you?

Dallas is trying to get the summer Olympics here in the future... Jody said he'll sell the house and we'll move! We're 45 miles north of Dallas, it will still cause such a problem.

They need to look back at cities that have had them and see how long it took for them to get out of the hole or if they are even out of the hole yet.
