I might as well start an Olympics thread, let the games begin.....
Is there any snow? How's the weather up there Ay.
As far as the World Cup, there will be a thread, but it's still months away.
Yup there is snow here. We didn't have it as bad as the East coast but we got about seven inches, with about six more to come Wednesday.
I am completely obsessed with the World Cup. I can't wait. I will be watching the Winter Olympics as well...my wife loves it.
Personally I hope all the snow melts and it's a complete disaster. The Olympics is a dying dinosaur that comes to town, eats up all your cash and puts your city in hock for the next few centuries and moves onto the next.

That's the spirit! LOL....Go Canada ay!
I feel a good way to help turn the Olympics around (and I've heard talk about this on the radio several times), is to create 2 or 4 permant Olympic facilites (2 summer, 2 winter) and host ALL Olympics there and just roate between these venues. All the contires that particiapte chip in to help build and maintain the facilites and then the atheletes will have a permanent training facilites. This would stop host cities from enduring the massive and pending debt load created from the Olympics and stop what now seems to be a major focus of the games; one upping the pervious host city.
I do love the Olympics, especially figure skating, but that is another thread.
