Disappointing for Aus, obviously, but Tim's like, 17 years old, he's just starting - the Japanese bloke's what? 41? And this is like his millionth Olympic attempt and he looked just so goddam happy. So, go him, I hope he wins gold.


And here ends any attempt at Olympics commentary from me, I really hope.


Alfred Hitchcock's 'The Birds'. More than 40 years old, this film is justifiably a classic. It's scary! Though there was one scene that totally lost me, when the character does something not believable. I usually berate the TV if this happens.
