AFTER 16 DAYS OF SPECTACULAR SPORT, THE PARIS OLYMPICS CLOSING CEREMONY WAS EQUALLY SPECTACULAR, WITH EXQUISITE SURREALISM AND BREATHTAKING MUSIC, WITH THE SOMEWHAT SAD IDEA, THAT WHEN ALL IS LOST, A GOLDEN CREATURE FROM THE FUTURE COMES DOWN TO EARTH, AND RESURRECTS THE IDEA OF THE OLYMPIC GAMES. (WHICH SHOULD MAKE US ALL PAUSE FOR THOUGHT!) AND THEN AN APPEARANCE FROM TOM CRUISE, LOOKING EVERY BIT LIKE HIS MISSION IMPOSSIBLE PERSONA, ALL BOUND TOGETHER WITH THE THOUGHTFUL WORDS OF IOC PRESIDENT THOMAS BACH (ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO LISTEN TO.) WE WERE MESMERISED FROM START TO FINISH! MANY CONGRATULATIONS ON A MOST SUCCESSFUL OLYMPIC GAMES AND CLOSING CEREMONY PARIS!
