Don't worry Chrisfan. The Olympics are in 28 days and since the Greeks are hosting, I'm sure they're destined to win a few extra medals this time around. Just avoid looking at the Greek females in weightlifting, wrestling (this will be the first time females are competing in Olympics) and the shotputter. From what I've seen, all of them are revolting! I can't really say that Greek women have ever held that much of my attention ...

Jennifer Aniston is Greek. But she's overrated I think. I would have to say the best looking famous Greek woman I can think of is..... Jackie Onassis. ;D
Oh, did I mention Tom Hanks is here? Harrison Ford also arrived yesterday. He's in Myconos with his sons. They were showing 'exclusive footage' on the news today. Like.... who gives a fuck?

I'm trying to think of a world famous Greek woman but all the ones that come to mind are bloody ugly... which is kinda unfair because Greek women are not ugly at all. Just the famous ones are. Eg. Nana Mouskouri, Maria Callas, etc.

New York Dolls bassist Arthur "Killer" Kane died suddenly of complications related to leukemia Tuesday night in Los Angeles. He was fifty-five. Kane had participated in the band's recent reunion shows and was slated to play last weekend's Move Festival in Manchester, England, before he got sick with what he believed to be the flu. He was diagnosed with walking pneumonia and refrained from flying under doctor's orders. Kane only learned he was suffering from leukemia on Tuesday and died later that night. "He ended up going to the hospital last night," said manager Darren Hill on Wednesday. "And that's when we got the diagnosis of leukemia in an advanced state." RIP ''Killer''.

Nana Mouskouri SUCKS!!!
Thankfully, she is practically unknown here. I only know who she is because I remember seeing her occasionally on talk shows when I was a kid. Who could forget those ugly, completely unfashionable eyeglasses?
The hosts would always make a big deal about how many gazillions of records she'd sold in other countries. Then she'd actually sing, and I'd think "HUH??? Who the hell is buying this crapola???"

LMAO! She's hardly the pride of Greece. She's mostly laughed at, especially by younger people.... because of those stupid outdated glasses.
The reason she has sold so many albums is because she sings in 4 or 5 different languages. Frogese included. In fact, I think she lives there... married to frogeater of course.
Just think of her as Greece's Celine Dion but not quite as ugly. Provided of course she takes off those glasses. ;D

I just hope they don't give her a slot at the the Opening Ceremony of the Games next month. That would be disastrous!
Of course, it's rumoured that George Michael might have the honors... which is something I don't quite get considering he's a Cypriot. Which isn't exactly Greek. A Cypriot to a Greek is more or less what a Canadian is to an American.

You must admit though Goin that she was kinda 'hotter' during the hippy-hippy-shake period.... The glasses were groovier too. ;D

OK Goin, be honest here. Mentally remove her glasses and tell me you wouldn't bang her. ;D ;D

Hell, I'd do her with the glasses...as long as she promised not to sing...ever again...
Wow, I had no idea she dated back that far! Or are those from the 80's, and she was just 20 years behind the times?

No, she's friggin old! I suppose she must be around 70ish these days. I saw her a few months back on TV when she visited. She still looks the same, the same glasses and all only now she's fatter.

Doesn't she know there's such a thing as laser eye surgery?
I bet she thinks the glasses are a key part of her image, and that it would create an uproar among her loser fans.

Damn I'm good at guessing people's ages! I just looked it up... she was born in 1934.
