For all you guys with iPhones and iPod Touch, if you're wondering if there's an app for the Olympic events, of course there is!
Loaded it on my Touch so I can quickly look up what's going on when my friends from out of town come to visit. Just saw it today on iTunes and installed it so I haven't really had a chance to play around with it.

| Dang, I just found a section out of citycaucus
"Entrance to the Holland Heineken House is free of charge, but ID must be shown. Minors (those less than 19 years) should be accompanied by an adult at all times"
Maybe not?
I wonder if I show my employee card from CHP if they'll accept it...

Don't know if this has been asked already, but are events being streamed online by the big broadcasters, such as the opening ceremonies, and most gold medal events?

Was at Ozone with TRD604, darthchilli and Kardboard. Place was packed to the tits with people. The "security check" was lame and there really wasn't anything bad about it from my end.
I walked past Tamara Taggert and Pamela Martin as they were leaving the Ozone with a giant bag of popcorn. I assume they were leaving cause they finished wrapping up the news from there.
Holland Heineken House looks pretty good. The main issue is parking. It's HORRIBLE down there. I parked at Richmond Center (spent 10 minutes circling for parking) and walked across to Ozone. Leaving Richmond Center was a mess so be prepared for that.
