Canada really rocked today, but it was just a little close for comfort. Good on USA team too for making it that far.:-4:-4:-4

ALOHA!!

MOTTO TO LIVE BY:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

What a game.

The US team almost let it get away from them.

But then it did, anyway.

Grats to Team Canada.

Oh my God, what a game!

A goal with 24 seconds left in the game. I thought I was going to die.

Very exciting, it could have gone either way, but way to go Canada!!!

It was grand wasn't it. I loved the opening of the closing where they got Katriona LeMay Doan to light her arm of the Coldrun, that was a hoot.

I believe in the spirit of global good we Canadians pulled of a class act and gave people all over the world something to take their minds off the glumness of the past couple of years.

We are not much of a bragging nation but stuff like this makes us feel good and it's also a good feeling knowing we can make the world smile.

As for the critics and naysayers... well such is life it is always easy to find negative but it takes real bloody effort to see positive in trying times.

YAY Us.

To NBC's legacy with the "Heidi Game" they have now added the "Seinfeld Closing Ceremonies". You gotta love the repetition of history.

I have to say that I hadn't watched many of the games...

I did happen to see the last girl to go down the luge...She were British and I wanted her to do very well, not because she were British but because I'm that nice!,..and she completed the course in the fastest time to win Gold!...

I thought that was cool!...:yh_sungla :yh_wink :yh_kiss <------For The Ladies!!!!!!!!

:yh_rotfl!

:yh_wink

I did watch the gold medal game between USA and Canada obviously but that didn't turn out like I wanted it to!!!!!...:yh_wink :yh_kiss <------For The Ladies!!!!!!!!

Anyway,..I hoped everyone enjoyed them!
