Olympics Update

The mutton heads who brought us the Lisa Simpson blow-job logo for the London Olympics in 2012, have now revealed the official mascots for the games...


Mandeville and Wenlock. As an ex-pat Salopian, I approve of the name Wenlock.

I haven't yet decided whether or not I like the mascots, though I can see the appeal for kids. Auntie has the story here.

They certainly aren't as bad as the logo: there's still time for them to rethink that, surely. But they won't.

Oh I meant "original" in the Olympics context. So far we've had boring mascots based mainly on (terrestial) animals. I'm disappointed that there are only 2 of them for 2012! (Beijing had 5 I seem to remember).
