A
look at the Olympics
[SEPT.
26, 2000]
People
who've known me for a while know that keeping up with what's going on in the
world isn't my strong point. That might be amusing in view of the fact that I've
been employed by news-reporting organizations for most of my working life —
which is also part of the explanation, because I’m usually focused on everyday
details that need to be taken care of behind the scenes no matter what the
actual events are in the outside world. With that background, it's not
altogether surprising that I didn't realize the Sydney Olympics had begun until
the opening ceremonies were mentioned in a Sunday sermon a couple of days later.
