Speaking of the parade of nations..

Don’t get me wrong, I am not a crazed person who worships the youth or beauty of someone’s face. Beauty is skin deep and under wonderful skin is often ugly creatures that deserve no time.

But I will say this: While trying to ignore the political talk banter of Matt Lauer and Bob Costas last night (is it me or were they just checking Wikipedia ever time they saw a new nation?) I was struck with how beautiful all the athletes are. Well, some Romanians scared me, and I certainly wouldn’t cross the flag bearer from South Africa. 





The athletes were just immersed in makeup and wonderful attire. And their hair was perfect.. their cameras were out. Oh, and at least 15 condoms each wait for them when they exit Olympic stadium.
