winter olympics

Have you been watching the Olympics? I always do.

Last night, I stayed up to watch Shaun White. After all the stories on his private half-pipe carved into a mountain, I had to see his new trick.

As it turned out, Shaun got a 46 on his first run, not even using his new double backward flip! He had the Gold before his second run! I am glad he did it so we could see it! It even increased his score by 2 points. Not that he needed it :)

"I just felt like I didn't come all the way to Vancouver not to pull out the big guns," said White, whose cult-status among snowboarders and skateboarders has earned him the nicknames "The Flying Tomato" and the "Animal".

Glad to see us back in the speed skating medals too. Way to go guys!
