1) Sarah's squeal of delight upon landing her last jump!
2)President Bush and the cell phone
3)The cross country skier (Italian?) who thanked "Prezeedent Boosh" for these wonderful Olympics...ooooo, smart and cute!
4)The joint spiral with the Canadian and Russian pairs at exhibition night.
BEST OF ALL...the NBC cameraman whispering to Sarah and her coach "You won!"....huh?...."You won the GOLD!". They fall to the ice in excitement and the rest, as they say, is history!

3)The cross country skier (Italian?) who thanked "Prezeedent Boosh" for these wonderful Olympics...ooooo, smart and cute! That skier is Johann Muehlegg of Spain-- he was forced to forfeit his most recent medal after testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug intended to help kidney patients avoid anemia. It wasn't a banned substance, but they acted anyway because it was performance enhancing.
The Bush comment was cool, though. Spain (even though Muehlegg's not originally from there) and Poland both like Bush pretty well.

If people didn't have a tear in their eyes when Derrek Para or Jim Shea got their gold meadals, they should check for a pulse.
