Year of the Tiger (Chinese New Year) is 2010! 2011 is the Year of the Rabbit.
Humorous Olympic-related comments made by late-night talk show host, Conan O'Brien:
"The government of China announced that it will ban restaurants from serving dog meat during the 2008 Olympics. Which gives new meaning to the phrase, 'Hello Kitty.'"
“China is upset because somebody leaked a video of the rehearsal for the Olympics Opening Ceremony on the Internet. I don’t want to give away too much, but it ends with the lighting of a torch.”
“China has announced that during the Olympics, protesters will be allowed to assemble in designated protest areas. Yeah. Or, as they’re commonly called in China, jails.”
"China has announced that they're shutting down several of their largest factories for the rest of the summer -- so that there will be less pollution for the Olympics. Chinese officials say: "Sorry, but for the next few months, you're going to have to buy your lead-coated toys somewhere else."
