13,000 cubic meters of helium used in the closing ceremonies.

We didn't need any more MRIs anyways.

Look buddy, the plans call for everyone one in the stadium to talk all squeaky-voiced. Now if you got a better way to do that, then put up or shut up.

So is the closing ceremony going to be as much of a weird acid trip as the opening ceremony? Do I want to miss watching Walking Dead live so I can watch this when it airs instead? Or is it not that interesting?

Nah, Walking Dead isn't that interesting. You'll be okay to watch it later.

I certainly didn't pick up on there being 51 billion dollars put into it, but it did end up going a lot smoother than I expected. I guess we can just assume that had Russia spent a normal amount on the games it would have been a disaster, but that any disaster can be avoided with a few dozen extra billion dollars.

The games didn't cost 51 billion. Corruption/bribes/payoffs/Russians did.

Russia should of had them in the urals or something instead and that would of shaved probably billions off the cost.

Not looking forward to that. :ohdear: Knowing our men we will be outplayed badly. We have some good players but they suck in a team.

You have to include those in the costs. They're very important. You think you get tarps of this quality without greasing the right wheels?

Which was all done because of the Olympics. So yes, the Olympics did cost $51 billion, Cap'n Semantics.

"When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said to me, 'Vladimir Vladimirovich, you are daft to build an Olympic village on a swamp!', but I built it all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that's what you're going to get, comrade, the strongest ski resort in all of Russia!"
