And so it ends…
Congratulations Canada! The Vancouver 2010 Olympics had some great moments, and although the US will go home with the most medals, Team Canada received the most gold. The US/Canada hockey game today was great; I was on the edge of my seat, screaming at my TV towards the end of the game, and couldn’t have been more excited when Zach Parise scored a goal with less than 25 seconds left, to force the game into overtime. I was disappointed that the US couldn’t pull off the upset, but somehow it seemed fitting that Canada should win gold in Vancouver on the final day of the Olympics, and I certainly don’t begrudge them a gold medal in hockey.
In light of the recent snowstorms in the Northeast, and the media’s constant desire to over-hype everything, I found this article rather amusing: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35627330/ns/weather/ What was even more amusing was the response I heard from some of the meteorological community, including from some of those who were “quoted” in the article.
Central Oklahoma may get a little snow tomorrow, but it looks like we may be starting to head towards some warmer temperatures towards the end of the week.
Happy Birthday to my sister Caitlin today! 🙂
