[QUOTE=tatertots;156126]Sadly I have a lame phone so I can really only do twitter updates and no internet stuff. :( But I'll definitely be taking photos and get my stalker on![/QUOTE]
Lots of free wireless in Vancouver because of the Olympics. Bring your laptop.
You will do us proud, I know it, hehe.
We want the photo of you and Bode with the gold metals around his neck. :D

He is really exciting to watch. You just expect him to pull off an amazing surge at the end.
I enjoyed the NBC "silhouette" piece on him earlier.

Good to know, and I'll try my hardest to get Bode cornered. I've even seen him play baseball when he joined the Nashua, NH team for a day to raise money for charity!
Now I just have to find some good music/audio books to keep me entertained for 15+ hours of driving tomorrow! It will be well worth it though I'm sure.
[QUOTE=OtherPplsDrama;156148]Wow Tatertots, that is really neat! Hope you have a great time.
Don't forget to sport your VEVMO.COM t-shirt! :D[/QUOTE]
Haha, maybe I'll make a sign and sport it during Men's Figure Skating since I know you all, ahem [I]Bacchus[/I], will be watching and looking for me! ;)
I am gonna be sporting a sweet late 80's early 90's style winter jacket though! I have to borrow one from my mom since all my winter stuff is back in NH. I am going to be the most stylin' person in Vancouver.
I am also on the Apolo is a ****** train! He just busts it out every time.
Oh...now I get whey they call the skier from Ghana the "Snow Leopard".

Oh no!!!! I can't believe France edged us out in the Nordic Combined---what a race!! I was literally just holding my breath and at the edge of my seat these last few minutes. Oh what a bummer...but the U.S team just did a remarkable job. And Chappuis was American born even...THEN moved to France. Double-stab! :( Great competition though, that sure was exciting.
[QUOTE=Bacchus;156215]Nice outfit! Err..

I'm pretty sure I had one of those in 5th-grade gymnastics... :p
Pretty cool.

The US is ahead of the curve thus far!

[QUOTE=tatertots;156412]Made it to Vancouver! Her parents live down the street from the torch and as soon as I get some pics I'll load 'em up![/QUOTE]
Nice. Looking forward to the pictures. Have fun!
NBC owns all sorts of channels. Yet, right now they are only running the Olympics on one, with Hockey on CNBC a bit later.
I remember during the summer games you could pick through 3 or 4 channels at any given time!
I wish it was like that this time around. Although I appreciate all sports, I'd rather snowboarding right now.
[QUOTE=molds13;156423]A friend said something to me about a comment Bob Costas made regarding the medal count. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?[/QUOTE]
I must have missed it.
****it...I acciently ruined the Olympic downhill....sigh.
Why can't NBC broadcast live! Well...now I'm not watching. And I'm a Nielson house, NBC, do you hear me?!!
It really bothers me that they don't broadcast live. At least for the medal rounds. I have to look online to see who won men's snowboard cross since it doesn't come on here until 8pm.

****it...I got that spoiled too on the local news. :(
Good news is I was able to tell my Mom to watch tonight.

That's right kids, eat McDonalds everyday and you too can be an Olympian!
Oh how far we have fallen as a society....

A couple of the USA Snowboarders had a nugget eating contest.
The winning number was something like 61. Absurd.
