I mean, 1996 Atlanta is mine. I watched the torch relay pass. I went to Olympic Park just a day before the bombing. Good times. -- nm - Qale Aug 3, 20:48 1

  - The first part of the trip was a company sponsored "Sales" junket to Norway and Sweden, then we extended to visit family in England. - Meg Aug 3, 20:43 1
