In ending......
I hope to god that the Olympics become more 'amateur'.
Joey Cheek donated 40K of his prize money to charity, for his gold and silver medals.
It was reported that his donation inspired a Canuck to take 10K out of her personal savings (and american gold was worth 25k, silver 15 and bronze 5)
and donate it...so far there has been over 400 k donated to that same charity.
The American hockey pro were ticked because they had to take care of their hotel rooms and travel...that distracted them from playing well!
Oops, I forgot that those same hockey pros thrashed the Olympic village in Nagano after they lost....
And after the Tomato win I got tired of seeing the same film clip of him asking how many babes he could get with it....If he used a little imagination he has his medal... ;)
Poor Bode is gonna be celibate for a while and Poor Linsday will always remembered as the gal who did the trick and lost the gold. Sasha crashed and burned, then Ono made me feel better - He acted like the bronze in the short track final was first, second, third and fourth place.
I love the Olympics, it's the 'characters' that bore me..

We are simply lost without the Olympics! I knew regular TV was awful, but that fact has just been majorly emphasized since the Olympics are over. There is NOTHING to watch on TV! Tuesday night there was an awesome Nova on, but that's it since Sunday night. I think I need to take up a hobby or something to get me away from the TV at night...
...oh, maybe that's why I'm feeling so crappy lately - Olympics withdrawal. ;)

In four short years the Olympics take place up here....about an 1 1/2 hour drive from where I am. Start saving your pennies. :)
