Jan, no need to apologize for pride in your skater! My goodness, I'm really happy for the Canadians, too.

............. Well, I am really looking forward to seeing the show this evening. I'm surprised Slutskaya took 3rd, but I'm very very pleased for the gold medalist.

.......................... I have to say, it makes me feel sad to hear of the pressure put on some of these athletes by their Olympic committees. Fumie's final spin was spectacular, by the way.

.............................Yeah I think it is cool that Japan got a medal, especially since it sounds like she is one of the few who skated clean!! Vancouver is going to be amazing with all our youngsters grown into young women (I hope) LOL. OK, I guess I really do have to get back to work instead of just dabbling in it, LOL. Thanks for all the updates!!!!!

It's interesting how we were in here discussing it with a lot of excitement when we were watching it live, but no one seems to be discussing it in the other thread now that NBC is finally showing it.

Doesn't start here for another 15 minutes or so, but since it's Survivor and AI night I won't tune in til 9. Besides they never show the figure skating til late in the evening (might get a couple of the first few ones to skate then they'll break away to whatever else is on tonight.)

OOPS! I forget that there are a lot of happy people enjoying the West Coast life. When we visit my cousin's in Vancouver, it's always an adjustment. I remember one time I went outside for a walk and someone mentioned that the Toronto Maple Leafs had won their hockey game that evening. I was baffled - it was only 7:00!

I know most the skating has been after about 10 or so cuz Dakota's been pretty depressed at missing most of it. I've been recording what I can of it for her but a lot of times it conflicts with other stuff we're doing.

At the beginning of the show they had a couple of the skaters, the first girl had lived in Rome for a lot of her life, not sure what country she represented. And they had the girl from Turkey, then they went to stuff on the the hills, not sure what exactly it is called but "speedy" is in it. It is 8:45 here, Oh it is free style aireils. NBC is sort of nuts, they should just use all their stations to show the different stuff starting at 5pm, pacific, then people could watch what they are intersted in. I bet they would bet better rating.s
