Are they done yet?

<rant>

I know that a lot of people love them but for those that don't, myself included, I think it's About time to turn off the Olympics and get on with real life...

I'll be point blank here - I hate watching sports. I love being involved in sports, taking part, score keeping, referring but just watching them to me is far less exciting then watching paint dry (at least with paint you know that something was accomplished once it's dry) - but to each his or her own... just please just don't ram it down my throat. This stuff is everywhere - thank goodness I don't have TV at home, I can only imagine what that must be like.

But my daily work is even infected: For the last few days, every time I've been to Google I have to be greeted with a new drawing depicting some Olympic something-or-other. This, when Canada Day didn't even rate a one day showing. It's almost enough to make me want to switch to a different search engine.

Anyway, in my whiniest voice ever (a-la "are we there yet?")

Isn't it done yet?
