Our cripples #1 in world!

Here in China the excitement about the olympics has carried over to the paralympics. Every night on TV I've been able to watch legless swimming, sit down volleyball, wheelchair discus, one arm ping pong. It's viewed and enjoyed here much more so than in the States. The news is triumphantly shouting out the medals won be the Chinese athletes. I don't mean to insult the handicap but I am captivated by the vigorous enthusiasm displayed by the tv anchors and sports reporters here.
