News Travel Fast!

A few moments ago, the postman delivered the latest TIME magazine to my mailbox. I was quite shocked to see the Olympic flame on the cover. Didn't the opening Ceremony just happen not too long ago? How did the story get written so quickly and then put into the magazine to be posted to subscribers?Today is 11 August, a Monday. Yesterday was Sunday.Saturday was 9 August; Singapore's Independence Day, which was a public holiday. So the post office wasn't opened that day. If I received the magazine today, technically it means that the magazine was posted to the post office by Saturday afternoon. But that's not possible because of the holiday. So it would have been posted by Friday afternoon instead. But that's not possible because the Opening Ceremonies were held on Friday night?I'm beginning to think that news do travel too fast nowadays...
