On Friday I get to see the torch come by the office I've working from now. I'm so excited and will definately take pictures, if I can get at the front of the masses.

You can explain to the folks in front of you that you are the "local reporter" for PetTalk.com, so need to get to the front!

Put your breaks together and when you get out on the street?
Talk to people!

I have had the best times at events like that, talking to people!

Sharpen your elbows the night before.

I am going to backtrack a little.

I was watching the down hill race from Cortina and heard that U.S. teams are put together barely a few weeks before the games.

What pressure these people are under to perform under the stress of earning World Cup points and scrambling for a spot on the US ski team?

It's not fair to the athletes to work and try to win a spot so close to the games.

I'll be watching the torch tomorrow night after work. It's coming through the community where my office is, so I figured I might as well stick around and watch the torch because I'm pretty sure I won't be able to drive out of the villiage

7:15am - Aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrnold is carrying the torch right now in Stanley Park. I wonder what he thinks of our rainy Wet Coast weather??? Everyone is being very tight lipped about the opening ceremonies tonight. It will be a surprise to all of us. I can't wait. I've got the VCR all loaded, programmed and ready to go. Our office is closing at 3:30 to allow everyone to get home and relaxed in front of the TV - that is, if you are not one of the luck 55,000 people attending in person.
