 Posted: 01/19/06 - 16:56 Post subject: Will you be watching the Winter Olympics?
if so - what events?
i love almost every event...
my favorites:
1) bobsled
2) any of the downhill skiing
3) speed skating
...hockey goes without saying.
if i only could've timed my unemployment a little bit better i could've sat at home and watched them all day.

I will watch bits and pieces of it. I don't really go looking for specific events anymore. To much going on at home to try and make the time to watch what I want.
