You missed two of my favorite stories from yesterday.

The US breaking the mixed 4x400 world record by more than a second in a heat.

The badminton gold medal marriage proposal. I didn't think there would be any romantic gesture at these gaes better than the Italian high jumper's (possibly made-up) excuse for losing his wedding ring, but this is probably it.
