This thread fell out of Breaking, so others may not know it is the Live thread for the evening events.

I did. I was disgusted, but not surprised because we are dealing with NBC here.
There has been plenty of years the outdoor ice races have been cancelled in the Netherlands because it was too cold too.
Since the Elfstedentocht (The Netherlands outside ice skating marathon) was organized into a competition in 1909, its only been held 15 times because of ice and weather conditions. Dutch natural ice conditions have rarely been conducive to skating. By 1962, indoor ice facilities were created so their athletes could train and compete year round. Because of the unpredictability of Dutch ice conditions, an event labled "Alternative Elfstedentocht" is held in countries like Finland, Canada, and Austria when conditions are optimal for such a race.
Cheese factory Carillo predictibly avoided mentioning those glaring facts. Oh no. Blame Climate Change.

They are having to truck in snow to some of the events.
Several southern states have plenty they would be willing to sell to Vancouver.

I told my son that he would like watching short track racing. Ono didn't disappoint when he sat in the back until three laps left then made the rest look like amateurs. My kids loved it. Daughter can't wait to see the luge.

Smallville. Never really watched that at all. I watched “Lois & Clark” quite a bit, but don’t recall those scenes.

Makes me feel wimpy. I just slipped on a little ice and fractured my tibia. They fall and just get back up. Oh yeah, I’m old.
