Masochist sits through 24 straight hours of Olympics, writes about it


Just because there are 3,600 hours of Olympics coverage being beamed out in one form or another this year doesn't mean you actually need to watch all 3,600 of them.

Nearly every minute in between is chronicled in the read link below -- seriously, this is a read you can't afford to miss.
