leo, wasn't that the whole oar hitting oar debacle though?

and hell, get over it. We don't fund our athletics enough to demand top placements anyway. Maybe this year they'll actually do something about it (yeah right) unlike every other Olympic year where the same shortcomings are duly noted and then ignored. We should be proud of all our athletes who even made it to the Olympics, and especially proud of those who came in the top five. It was likely just a bad day... or something went a little differently that made them place the way they did... like Men's vault... holy shit, the world champion fell incredibly badly, and one guy was taken out on a stretcher... talk about bad day... (and his birthday too... poor Russian: Alexei whatever his last name is, what a brutal way to spend your b-day) Hey, but Canada (and a fellow Albertan at that) finished fourth... not that he should've (should've been bronze), so let's celebrate that... and the men's 8. Big deal, no metal, but kickass nonetheless.

It would be like being mad at our military presence... when we don't fund it either. I dunno... health care and social services or athletics and military?

Hooray for the underdogs!

Hi, I was looking at your pictures on the Internet I am your bigest fan.

Hardly makes up for the 5th place we got in the men's 8s...

Gold??? In floor gymnastics??? I don't get it... Gold???

3 minutes... chalk it up to slow browsers... I probably did type it first... so I'm most likely still psychic... huzzah

Sure, they're out of order. But they make more sense that way... and it makes Alison and Jere seem more psychic, which is good news for everyone!

it was more of a rhetorical question, AD, and though your thoughts make sense, I know what's bothering me.

anyway... does anyone know where or when to go for that partay tonight? Is it still happening? It's kinda cold and windy outside for trampoline - yes I'm wimpy... anyway someone post something that has an answer please! like... Jeremy!

To al and to others who don't know where the part-ay is...
It's at Vanessa's house

4704-105A street

You know you found the right place when you see a trampoline in the yard.
I think it starts around 8:45-9ish
Hope to see everyone there

Hey Eric, sorry I didn't come out, was having a bad day, wanted to keep things quiet, and yes happy birthday to you and albert!
