South Korean speed skating team is always great, so they're really invested in those results here.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Shaolin Liu deserved to be disqualified. He was losing on the sprint & decided to go for obstruction on the last straight.

Zhangjiakou zone has alien climate. A place where it is -20C but gets no snow.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

It's day 4 (or 5?) of the Olympics, and it just dawned on me that I haven't watched a minute of it, and I'm not itching to start now.  That never happened to me before.  Anyone feeling the same way about the games?

HVC

Same. I usually prefer the Winter Olympics but I have no desire to watch.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Admiral Yi

Haven't seen a second of highlights.

Josquius

It's crazy. I mean, it's not like they couldn't find somewhere scenic in China I'm sure. Somewhere with snow even.
But no. They have to shoehorn in Beijing.

Also we just had the summer Olympics last year...and late last year at that.

I'm not watching anything, no. I've read a few headlines, but that's about as much attention I'm willing to give it.

HVC

I'd like to think that I'm not watching out of protest but I know I'll watch the World Cup so...

I wouldn't normally watch but I've watched a little because social life.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

I've watched some of the skating races.

The duo also lost to Australia. A national disgrace really.

Italia dominated the competition thru and thru. Went undefeated and unchallenged winning 8-1 and 8-5 in the medal round.

Grey Fox, big curling fan.
