    Just watched the ceremonies locally. I have to admit, I was pretty impressed -- especially in comparison to the stunning boringness of Beijing and London. The Russians didn't shrink away from their Communist history at all, which was really cool to me.

    In Soviet Russia, ceremonies open you.

    Awesome opening ceremony, even the very zippy all male choir singing the Russian National anthem. I'll bet Putin wanted to take off his shirt and sing along.

    That is one killer looking stadium.

    So it was the pink ring that didn't turn for Putin. That's so perfect.

    Slopestyle is the business. Looks amazing/terrifying at the same time.

    I don't know what it is about winter olympics and hotties but they have them. Much more so than the summer ones.

    Putin has installed a new event just for him. It's the one man shirtless bobsled.

    I have been watching for the chicks. I'm sad Alyson Dudek has been eliminated from her competition.

    Worst Olympics of all time. If I wanted to watch X-Games, I would have watched that crap.

    Opening ceremonies made me feel like I needed shrooms to understand it. It was awful.

    Who was the figure skater from Russia that tweeted the pic of Obama and the banana? or was that all rumor?

    Winter Olympics are ***. They had to introduce X game style stuff to try to keep people interested. Only so much skating and skiing crap you can do to keep people's attentino.
