Are you kidding me!?!
With all that’s going on the world, Iran has a problem with this?
What you’re looking at is the 2012 Summer Olympics logo, and London unveiled it 4 years ago, and only now is Iran kicking up a fuss over it’s ‘racist’ theme!
Racist!?! What! Really!?!?
Yes, really! Iran is threatening to boycott the 2012 London Olympics because the secretary-general of the country’s Olympic committee is convinced the Games logo secretly spells the word “Zion”, a biblical term widely recognized to refer to the city of Jerusalem.
I guess you have to be Muslim to get the racist reference because I don’t get it!
As for ‘boycotting’ the games, I think the world will get over it. They’re acting like the kid who refuses to go to his neighbour’s birthday because they don’t like the colour of the balloons!
The logo is fine and I’ll boycott watching the games if it’s changed!

Have you ever paused a movie to get a better look at a scene?
I did just last weekend during Open Season 3. I stopped it to show my kids that the bear was playing a banjo with 5 strings but as you follow them up the neck, they became 4!
The kids were impressed but I can tell you won’t find my discovery on the list of top 5 Most Paused Movie Moments!
A new poll shows that the honour goes to Sharon Stone’s provocative leg-crossing scene in Basic Instinct, you know the one I’m talking about! According to lovefilm.com, over one third of those polled reached for the remote during that moment.
Runner up was American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez, who bared her butt in 2010 comedy The Back-Up Plan, but not all paused moments involved nudity!
Third place went to a blooper in 1977 hit Star Wars, when a Stormtrooper hits his head on a ceiling.
Followed by Jamie Lee Curtis’ topless shot in Trading Places while a scene in which Jessica Rabbit’s dress rises up in Who Framed Roger Rabbit rounded out the top five.
I’ve seen that Roger Rabbit movie a thousand times but I can’t say I remember THAT scene!

And finally, for all you hippies from the 70′s who travelled across the province in a smoke filled VW Mini Bus, grab yourself a road map;
