    RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) – Rio de Janeiro’s governor declared a state of financial emergency Friday and requested federal funds to help fulfill obligations for public services during the Olympics that start Aug. 5.

    Emergency measures are needed to avoid “a total collapse in public security, health, education, transport and environmental management,” a decree in the state’s Official Gazette said.

    By the end if the Olympics, American journalists are going to view that place like Escape From New York.

    dunno, the stereotype for Rio is a lot of people who smell like ass and BO (maybe the asses are so thick they can't wipe all the way), partying without showering, shitting on the beach, lots of AIDS, lots of trannies and you'll get robbed/mugged walking down the street.

    Rio is (was) a fantastic place to visit - as long as you stay out of the slums. I had tons of fun there during Carnival about a decade ago.

    I believe that when girls are born there - they get a bikini - and by law, I assume, they have to wear the same bikini for the rest of their life. It can be quite entertaining at time.
