I think Disney made the movie "Cool Runnings" about the Jamaican team.

Freezing rain?? Really? I refused to listen to the news today so I could avoid olympic coverage...I guess I better pay attention!

Well, I will check it more thoroughly in the light tomorrow. But from what I saw I couldn't see any dents, and that just amazed me.

Was it the Jamaican bobsled team that created such a following about 12 years ago? I would love to have a t-shirt from that Olympic event. Hmmmm. Wonder if E-Bay has that item?Yep. The Jamaicans popularized the sport. I would think eBay has a shirt, or even some other online store like Amazon perhaps. Back when the 1984 Summer Olympics were held in Los Angeles, I bought a souvenir Afghanistan Basketball Team jersey at a local sporting goods store here in Montana, and it was this wicked tie-dye color.

Yeah. That was a fun movie to watch. Wasn't John Candy in it?
Anyway, guess I'd better get some actual WORK done here (LOL!)
Will check back with y'all later. Have fun!

Sounds like a sport that includes Judy Woodruff, in one form or another. She's the first skeleton that always comes to mind.
To: Howlin
Skeleton is like the luge, only you ride the little bitty sled on your stomach, going 120kilometers per hour or 75 MPH, head first.

Well then I won't complain about the single digit temps we are expecting for the weekend. Of course you have something we don't see here in Western Michigan during the winter...sun :)

Skeleton? No, each person goes down the run and is timed. I think they run a couple times each.
Rats...rain is making the satellite quit. I hope the weather allows me to see the men's figure skating, so I can make disparaging comments.
