    I hope they get everything done before the dead line.
    They are having to work 24 hours a day.

        They have been short of skilled workers from day one.It seem that they are on track from the pictures I have seen.The amount of money they have spent on security is crazy but has to be done for all those who are going.Hope nothing happens.

          Yeah saw that sports show Byrant Gumble and they had a report on that. They said that 70,000 special military and police are being trained for this.

            Personally...it will be a miracle if they are done on time...and a miracle if something majorly bad doesn't happen...
            "Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."

              Yeah, but give the Greeks a break. They've only known about this for about 10 FUCKING YEARS!

                Just heard on the radio today. Those 70,000 trained are from NATO.
                Trippin out on this. 70,000 people for security. That is a lot of people. Is it just me or does that trip out anybody else out about the amount?

                  I heard that they are so far behind schedule that they are now scheduled to finish the main arena ON THE DAY of the opening ceremonies!

                    I cant stand the olympics anyway. Corporate, commercial...It feels so forced.

                      Take it from someone who worked with NATO for 3+ years...

                      That just means that they'll be on an expresso break about every 30 minutes....
