I just love watching all the Olympic events, summer or winter, doesn't matter, the Olympic spirit is contagious. To top it all off, this year the games are in our time zone. The obvious conclusion is that we will be able to watch a lot of the excitement live. Not so if we would have to rely on NBC. While the opening ceremony was going on, less then a hundred miles from here, NBC was taping it, so they could show it to us 3 hrs later. Dah! Good thing we have CTV, a Canadian channel, so we have been watching it all live, with the benefit of listening to the commentators from the host nation. Right now we already know who won the gold in women's mogul. Was it Jennifer Heil? Did Canada finally win gold on home soil? I will not spoil the surprise, if you only have NBC, you will have to wait for another 3 hrs or so. Oh, and don't miss the short track, it was a great finish. Apollo Ohno anyone?
