Thankfully our friends, The Yaks from the right side of the mountain, who get a great signal, are posting up to the minute, on our side of the hemisphere Olympic coverage news.

There does appear to be some concern over unauthorized penguin luging, but perhaps that was just a rumor. Neither Yaks, nor horses are participating. They actually are shut out.. can you imagine! So a brief introduction to the Yakkiness on Olympic coverage..RandomYak has this to say “For those loyal Yak readers who have kept up with our pre-Olympic coverage of the equestrian events, we regret to inform you that the International Olympic Committee has persisted in its speciesism discrimination. Coverage of any equestrian events is embargoed. Your only source of reports on the horses at these Olympics will be the Yaks. Incidentally, no yaks have been permitted to participate either. And no penguins. Non-human species have been shut-out. Four-leggers’ Olympic dreams have all gone for naught.”

For additional News that is non Olympic related , see Stop The ACLU, and a belated birthday to both the site and to Jay!
And Tigger noticed that the Yaks and Stop The ACLU had a groveling ,whining, outright begging plea request for some help to reach a goal from Dave at third world county..
No I am not gonna tell you go look!
