    Athens 2004 Games


    "Although NBC in the United States presented the entire opening ceremony from start to finish, a topless Minoan priestess was shown only briefly, the breasts having been pixelated digitally in order to avoid controversy (as the "Nipplegate" incident was still fresh in viewer's minds at the time) and potential fines by the Federal Communications Commission. Also, lower frontal nudity of men dressed as ancient Greek statues was shown in such a way that the area below the waist was cut off by the bottom of the screen. In most other countries presenting the broadcast, there was no censorship of the ceremony."

    Don't worry man. That was my first reaction too. Then I thought he has been saying the exact same thing at every opening ceremony. But only in one country have the words a true meaning.

    one thing I was thinking while watching the parade of nations - so many beautiful people.

    and now I am having trouble deciding what to watch! so many choices - fencing, cycling, boxing, etc
