sumi, quatchi, and miga are growing on me..
i really liked parts of the opening ceremonies- kd lang's version of leonard cohen's hallelujah...and the opera singer performing the olympic hymn was very impressive.

Being pretty out of the hockey loop, I was surprised to see how both the US and Canada dismantled their opponents in the semifinals. Mighty Russia got dominated. |

there is a pretty good hockey rivalry between the US and Canada. in the world juniors this year the US beat Canada in the final. it is very likely that the game today will be the highest watched sports program in canadian history.

Will the US beat Canada again at the #1 sport in Canada (and the #5 team sport in the US)? I doubt it, but it would be hilarious. |

Fucking right!
(Although I don't think celebrating a gold olympic medal with a cigar and a beer is crass.)

Women deserve the right to be as crass as men.

Yeah, if you win a gold medal you bloody well deserve some champagne and a cigar...

I'm just looking at the time for this that they announced on facebook, about 7pm pacific time on 22/2 or something, which is probably a few hours ago...
"DEVO is set to play at the 2010 Winter Olympic Victory Ceremony tonight, 2/22/10. The tentative air time is 7:20 PM Pacific Time, but is subject to change." |

DEVO are playing a new song at the ceremony tonight, you can download a free mp3 here. Sounds not bad like, as good as anything they did in the day!

Check out that reverb at the end as it fades out, reminds me of the end of Trompe le Monde, the song. |

yes, she was barefoot! and was that real snow on the ground? i did like the northern spirit bear and the joni mitchell part where that guy (or girl?) was flying over the prairies.
seems like the british press is very critical (whiny) of the olympic games. any thoughts from the british forum members? do people take the press somewhat seriously or is it merely entertainment?

I'm loving the short track speed skating. The relay races are insane.

The Americans keep stealing golds from us at the last second!
I agree that they botched the anthem, it was hardly recognizable. |

I agree. kd lang singing Hallejuah was better than anything in China's militaristic opening ceremonies. |
