I'll also suggest the same to my friends.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136317901768500285.post-46754768522927533472008-03-30T10:19:00.000-04:002008-03-30T10:19:00.000-04:00Thank you for commenting on my blog, Skinny Dipper...Thank you for commenting on my blog, Skinny Dipper, and thank you so much for posting your own on the Beijing Olympics and the boycott. Sometimes I feel like the lone ranger when I talk about this - people shove back at me how the Olympics are about "world peace" and "forgetting politics." But how is this possible when the Olympics are a world class money making machine for big corp.s and propaganda machine for Beijing??? I know I'm preaching to the choir.

I do think that if we take little steps in opposing the Beijing Olympics, these little steps will add up.Skinny Dipperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12818163310102120130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136317901768500285.post-12308076342494061282008-03-21T09:44:00.000-04:002008-03-21T09:44:00.000-04:00hi there,i was looking for a list of beijing olymp...hi there,<BR/>i was looking for a list of beijing olympics sponsors and came across your blog. it really made my day to read about your decision to boycott the olympics. it inspired me to know that we all have the power to make decisions in our own way that doesn't support cruel and inhumane regimes. i'm a tibetan living in new york and i completely share your decision to boycott the olympics by not watching AND limiting what i buy from the olympics sponsors. yes, i did initially feel that my boycott would not make any difference at all but i think the issue is about morals and making sure that i don't indirectly support hem. i know i am just one person but this is what i personally can do to express my disgust at the Chinese government. i'm a huge sports fan and its sad that i can't watch the games but i'm even more upset about what the chinese have and continue to do in tibet. thank u.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
