Faux Fu

No to Olympics!

If you are into the Olympics.  That's cool.  My strategy for taking in all the drama and spectacle is pretty simple: avoidance.  I will not be tuning in.  Not for one moment.  Of course, news from the Olympics will still drift into my consciousness, but I will not be intrigued, or excited, or disappointed if one country wins more medals than another.  This all seems like a perfect example of a manufactured, faux, event.  I mean, it's real for the ones running, jumping, etc.  But they don't need my eyes fixed upon them for validation. And I just choose not to care... what else you got?
