Sunday Night Open Thread

Whether it's the Olympics or something else that's on your mind, here's a place to talk about it.

As I was driving around downtown Denver today, it occurred to me how small an area it really is. While 50,000 people aren't unusual for a sports game, the folks all go home afterwards. Next week, they'll be sticking around 24/7 -- especially since so many hotels are miles away. It's going to be very crowded. [More...]

I'm not sure people realize how far the Pepsi Center is from the Convention Center and other areas downtown where events are being held. It's walkable and there are shuttles, but for bloggers schlepping all their equipment from the time they leave their hotels in the morning, it's going to be tedious.

It's not just laptops, but extra batteries, cords, power strips, video cameras, still cameras and more. And some of us will want our makeup and a toothbrush and possibly a change of clothes.

Comfortable shoes can make all the difference.

And that's my thought for the day.
