Buddy Cole at Olympics.

I had to track it down at the Canadian comedy central website, but amusing just because The Kids in the Hall has such fond memories. :)

It's a shame CC doesn't like hockey, he'll have to take a week off from this thread and olympic covering :(

Actually I enjoy watching Olympic hockey.  They play by international rules and thus there is no fighting.  For example I enjoyed watching the third period of the Women's game this morning. :)

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

Seriously? Your only grip with the NHL is the fighting?

What is surprising, shocking even, is Canada is in second with 9 medals, including 4 gold. :o

That is neither surprising nor shocking.  When it comes to the Winter Olympics the Canadians are a juggernaut of 1990s Detroit Red Wings-esque powah.  But that is to be expected since for most Canadians their daily commute is a winter sport.

But if you go back 20 years we were more like the 1970s Detroit Red Wings - the Dead Things era.

Fighting would make Olympic hockey even better-- particularly women's :)

Limit Olympic excess

Mitt Romney ran the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah and spent less than $3 billion, even adjusted for "security and inflation"; says $50 billion spent by China and Russia should be stopped by future International Olympic Committees.

VPNs are awesomes.
I just figure it's probably a bad idea to use one I know nothing about. Recommendations?
