Ok, people of the world....the final countdown has begun. In a few more hours, the 2010 winter olympics will commence. I'm soo full of it now that I've to spread it around and what better place than in our forum right here.

For starters...check this commercial propaganda out.
wish I can ski/skate/slide/fly/pose/cry like that...

Whats your favourite event to watch?
I like Bobsleigh/skeleton/luge (cause they must be crazy) and of course the figure skating

I must try and see of the snowboarding and ski-ing action too

cant watch that link, Casandra.

Here it's the same, video is blocked...anyway my first heckle on this great games, or hopefully great :

...sorry guys....these CTV guys are so a-retentive......the video in a nut-shell-- the best propaganda material ever about snow and ice and more snow....and the theme song sang by a very talented 15-year old....

and your first heckle drH-- I can't open too....

But now...
All the cannucks seem copyright obsessed or what? It will be a text-biased thread then

...look who's talking....may I remind you that in the Beijing equestrian competitions- the german horses were caught doping.....or perhaps it was not horse team germany....

they're all crooks...but good -or extremely good earning, popular and therefore what the heck about doping, fairness, or Olympic spirit?
