At least they look more interesting and “happy” than a lot of the other country’s uniforms!

Another good trivia item: This is the first time there have been women ski jumpers. I did not know that. That’s wild and wacky.

I heard about that too, and hadn’t realized there weren’t women ski jumpers before now!

Is it just me or is the fact that Shaun White is the only American athlete that is not wearing a hat. That guy cares more about his image than being part of the team if you ask me.

There is a Togo Minnesota and I was there once when it was -50F. I think those guys are from Africa though.

What is the word I’m looking for to describe bad manners? I’m embarrassed by the USA athletes. They literally ran over the “sign” girl. Not dignified jmo.
