Re: 2010 Winter Olympics

I do plan on seeing the closing ceremonies, but to tell you the truth, while it is interesting, I will be glad when it is gone.

It closes tomorrow night at BC Place Stadium & then it will be quite until March 12Th when the Paralympics start.

On Monday they figure it will be a record day at the Airport as all of the Athletes & Coaches leave.

The game starts at 2:15 CST, but today happens to be Chopin's 200th birthday, so I will be taking a part in a celebration concert until after 5:00 CST. Chances are that I'll miss the game. Thank God for TiVO!

Re: 2010 Winter Olympics

From CNN'S Web Site.

http://www.cnn.com/2010/SPORT/02/28/...ex.html?hpt=T3

If you don't know the words to "O Canada" you have not been in Vancouver these past two weeks.

It was being sung everywhere, in bars, on the streets, in arenas, even during low points such as Canada's loss to the United States by 5-3 in the men's hockey preliminary rounds.

And whoever makes Maple Leaf flags probably has already made a year or two's worth of profit.

And so we come to today's hockey final: the match that North American fans had dreamed about for months -- Canada vs. the United States.

It seems kind of fitting with the neighborly rivalry will be the culmination of these Games, the Olympics that will be known for a Canadian comeback and a U.S. team that didn't own the podium but borrowed it for 17 days.

Re: 2010 Winter Olympics

Who better to set the stage for a U.S.-Canada gold-medal hockey game than the famous actor Michael J. Fox, who grew up in Canada and became a star in the States.

Isn't TiVO a sin?
