We are featuring an image of the band Rush, and their lead singer Getty Lee because they are Canadians. And, they are about the only Canucks who didn't come away with a gold medal (Canada won 14 in all). Of course, one has to wonder if the country where even right-wingers wear tye-dye t-shirts will become as fervent and nationalist as us Americans (we will get you back for the hockey game!!!).
In all seriousness, the Olympics were nice and I even watched the women's figure skating competition.
Hmmmmmmm.........perhaps I shouldn't have admitted that publically.
But, like the folks who have actually watched the Japanese film "Eureka" (2000) in its entirety (it lasts 3 hours and 47 minutes- I am not one of those people), it is time to take care of some important matters that we may have neglected while watching women's skeleton at 3 a.m.
SIDEBAR: Speaking of women's skeleton, there was a great audio interview/profile of Katie Uhlaender who represented America in that sport on the NPR radio show "The Story" last week. One can find that segment at thestory.org
