http://www.vancouver2010.com/olympic-freestyle-skiing-schedule-results/I've been TIVOing everything and watching on a day or two delay but I think I was spaced out at the beginning. Fortunately my sister still has it all on her DVR so I'll be over there tomorrow watching it.

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
