Well you always had to wonder what was going to happen when they awarded the 2012 Olympic Games to a people hopelessly challenged to organize a two car train.
Even though we have eleven days left before the games begin, the screw-ups are well under way. The first American athletes arrived today and were stunned to find themselves on a four hour bus odyssey from the airport to the athletes village, a trip that should have taken no more than forty-five minutes.
The private contractor in charge of security has admitted their twenty thousand Olympic rent-a-cops number far less than twenty thousand and in many cases lack even conversational English language skills.
Depending on what you read, these games are sucking anywhere from 12 to 24 billion Pounds out of the public teat.
Meanwhile, a news article in the Telegraph site reports that there is an epidemic of impoverished Brits dying without even the funds to pay for their funerals.
