The West Australian (frequently referred to as “The Worst”) reports that the new gold medal winners’ stamps are being blown up and put on display at the AIS here in Canberra.

“Olympic swimming champions Stephanie Rice, Libby Trickett and Leisel Jones already feature on the special 50 cent stamps…

Enlarged replicas will be displayed at the Australian Institute of Sport until the Games’ close on Sunday week.”

Apparently the National Portrait Gallery is organising this shrine.

And with any luck that will conclude our Olympic coverage.

I hope they make a stamp of Jana Rawlinson – because even though she’s not in the Olympics, she’s just so god damn modest, lovely and wonderful.

Will the Stephanie Rice stamp feature her in underwear?? Rowwrr.
