Home court has its advantages. Results are coming in.

China has two Golds -- one in Men's 10m Air Pistol Shootng and also Women's 48 kg lifting. We are impressed.

The U.S. is next with South Korea third in the tiers of medal takers.

The U.S. took Gold, Silver and Bronze in Women's Individual Sabre Fencing.

South Korea took Gold in Men's 60 kg Judo and Silver in Shooting.

No jokes yet. . . please.

No jokes? Oh come on, Steve, whats a little levity amongst friends?

The "pistol shooting" and the "lifting" really suprised me. I was under the impression that China had exported all its lead, cleverly disguised as children's toys.

What is with the duct tape over the "speedo" trademark on the Chinese girls swimwear?
