Huh

So the Canadian men's hockey team's Olympics are over. Not only are they coming home without a medal, but they didn't even make it out of the quarter-finals. That sound you hear is the citizens of an entire country gnashing their teeth in collective agony.

I don't actually watch hockey myself (bad Canadian!), but the news did raise my eyebrows a little.

In other news... I got nothin'. My existence has been pretty much centered around the TV since the Olympics started. I'll resume my regularly scheduled life after this weekend, I guess.

I think we got another one this morning, though I can't remember what sport it was. And I think we still have a couple more chances in speed skating. Woot!

Ooo - women's curling! That's what it was - they got a bronze. I haven't heard how the men fared (have they finished?). If they get a medal, it'll be only the second time ever for a Newfoundlander. :-) If you hear anything about the women's skating, don't say anything! I'm going spoiler-free until I get to watch it on TV tonight.
