Aw, and here I barely got my antennae up and running. I had other priorities this week and haven't watched anything 'cept the one night with the short skate. Oh, well, 2010 is just around the corner, right?

I have it on. More bad bob-sledding coverage.

However, I am sticking with this, as I can't stand the stupidity of the port coverage on the news channels!

Cheeks is going to carry the flag for America. He is the one who donated his Olympic prize money to the kids in Darfur.

What's worse than that, is Johnny Weir skating to "My Way".

And if Dick Button says one more time that this music is appropriate for him, I'm getting my darts out!

That was truly gag inducing...

Someone needs to tell the Dick that heavy breathing while the male skaters are performing is very distracting..

Never fear, I am here, LOL.

I've come to the conclusion that I enjoy pairs and dance pairs better than I do individual performances.

I guess I just like the male/female interaction and the classical symmetry of it all.
