One of the guys who raised his fist in the air at the Olympics has died, which would ordinarily mean the entire news industry would go into a blubbery heap except he was Australian and hardly anyone knows who he was.
Somehow, no matter how well-meaning the act -- and a lot of people who came after weren't so well-meaning -- we couldn't help thinking of Allan Sherman and his song:
Just the pigeons up above
Seem to know the right location.
They all found the statue of...
THE REBEL.
