I am Karan from Olympia, WA.
Almost every other name used here is a pseodonym pseudonim pseudonymn alias.
The rest of it is true - mostly - and all of it is my own.
Don't even think about taking any of it, unless of course, you want to pay me.

The counter says that 2847701 have been flummelized, but I personally think it's all a big lie.
will be sour but it is what it is...or as Popeye says, I yam what I yam.
Yes, I’m going to write about the Olympics. The Olympics that, depending upon the venue, are no farther than six hours from me - not east or west of me, but directly north of me, straight up as the crow flies. The Olympics in British Columbia, the very same British Columbia which shares my own beloved Pacific Time Zone. It’s that shared clock that had me happy that I might be able to actually watch all my favorite events in real time...as they actually happen.
NBC is going to have none of that and they proved it on day one. While the Olympians were marching toward their seats in that odd alphabetical order of theirs, our own NBC affiliate was broadcasting pure crap....while at the same moment, beamed the ceremony live to the east coast which as you have probably already guessed if not already knew, it 3 fricking hours later than we who share the time zone. So...we who share the BC time zone...had to watch the stupid thing tape-delayed while struggling to stay awake until midnight.
I don’t know what’s what with the east, but I don’t really care....I figure if you are out of the time zone, there’s going to be some challenge to viewing events but why can’t we watch it in actual time no matter when other’s see it? Why oh why oh why?
I know. Nothing in this world is more important then when Karan gets to view the Olympics so I’d like each and every one of you to send off a scathing letter to Dick Ebersol at NBCGiveKaranHerOlympicsInRealTime.com.
And, even though it’s been a constant source of “discussion” in this house since last night, Leonard disavows all participation in this rant.
