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, Jay Leno:
“Well, the Olympics are over.” The “great thing about the Olympics” is you have people that “are otherwise enemies…pretending to get along for a couple of days. Oh, I’m sorry, that was the Democratic convention.”
"You can already tell China has moved on from the Olympics. That stadium they called the Bird's Nest? It was converted into a giant coal-burning, lead toy factory.''
“Yesterday, President Bush gave the U.S. Olympic team a rousing send-off to the Olympics. Again, I don’t think President Bush is that up on geography. Like he told the athletes to get there a couple of days early to acclimate themselves to the fact that China is upside-down”
"Although the Olympics haven't even started yet, did you know all the Olympic events are already available on bootleg DVDs in China right now?"
“And in China, the Olympic torch finally reached Beijing. Unfortunately, there’s so much smog, today the torch lit the sky on fire.”
“The International Olympic Committee is saying that the yellow-gray haze over Beijing is not pollution, it is only mist. … Okay, it’s lead mist, but still.”
