COPENHAGEN, Denmark -- The International Olympic Committee has reached its decision in selecting the site for the 2016 Olympics. After extensive lobbying by heads of state, including Michelle Obama's husband, the IOC has voted to make the site of the 2016 Olympics: www.olympics2016.com.
"We thought about doing something a little more traditional like olympics.com," said IOC president Jacques Roggggggggggggge. "But this one is special. We wanted to spice up the site for 2016. We may even include some Flash graphics on the home page, maybe even a YouTube."
Most tech geeks around the world were thrilled to hear the news, but a few techies were deeply saddened. Jessica Kipling, founder and CEO of www.2016olympics.com, released a statement that said in part, "We did everything we could by going to godaddy.com and buying every conceivable URL revolving around the 2016 Olympics. I guess this one was just a little too obvious. We totally missed the boat on that one. It makes more sense to put numbers first, in my opinion, but whatever."
Although it is not known yet which geographic location will host the Olympics, chances are most people reading this will already have spit coffee all over their flat-screen monitors in a blind rage that render their monitors completely useless to find out who actually won. It's either Tokyo (Japan), River of Janeiro (Brazil), Madrid (Spain) or Chicago (Chicago). You're welcome.
