A damn, yes, but not much more than that. I hope they go well and that the U.S. wins its share of medals, but otherwise I can't say I'm counting the days.
TNP likes Daredevil.

True. Most of my childhood was without TV, period.
TNP can cook a steak properly.
Correct, although I'd rather trust a skilled cook to do it.

False. I saw it but was disappointed in it.
TNP would, if offered the chance, take a one-way trip to Mars as part of a colonization effort.

TNP likes red licorice better than black licorice.
