The Final Countdown

As of today it's exactly 1000 days until the Beijing Olympics. Thank you building-sized alarm clock for keeping me informed! Actually I knew this before seeing this giant timer, since the countdown to the Olympics is the third most important countdown on my list. Number 1 is the countdown until Spiderman 3. Number 2 is the countdown until I actually start making money as a doctor. Both are further away than I'd like.
