Don't know if you saw the opening of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing (if your'e "one of the nine"--see full text of article below), but here is an account from one of US sailing team members and their team leader, Dean Brenner. Good stuff!

Words are my life. When not working with our Olympic athletes, I teach and coach public speaking and writing for a living. And I don't own the vocabulary to describe what yesterday's Opening Ceremony was like. So since I need some help with my words, I'll quote team member Andrew Campbell: The Opening was one of those "Forrest Gump" moments when you look around and ask yourself how and why you are there.
