redfiona99The Americans on my flist may like to know that Paula Radcliffe just dissed NBC for not showing the Winter Olympics live.
Other than that, I am confused as to why the curling starts with pipers playing Scotland the Brave.
When they decide to scratch and re-start the women's Giant Slalom, I shall declare a conspiracy against Austrian skiers.
But mostly, I am so very happy that Sweden won the 4 x 10 k in the cross country, if only for Johan Olsson, who, in the 30 k individual, tried to break away at 15 k, and almost stayed out until the end, but, and this is where he goes from awesome to fantastic, despite being caught within sight of the stadium, he didn't collapse and helped block the rest of the field from catching up with his team mate. So far, he's my man of the games.
