Olympics!

I love the Olympics; especially the Winter Olympics. And the fact that they are in Vancouver this year makes it all the greater. After all, I am a die-hard fan of Canada. In fact, I am in love with the country. When the Olympics are on, I disparage the rest of the world, and anything else going on for that matter. I think it's really amazing that no matter what is going on in the world, people can get together and enjoy this universal event without the hostility, perfidy, or worry about the conflicts of today's world. Anyway, the Winter Olympics were SICK. There are just a few amazing Olympians who's necks are being weighed down by their massive medals: Shaun White, Apolo Ohno, JR Celski, Lindsey Vonn, Julia Mancuso, Evan Lysacek, Seth Wescott, Hannah Teter, and many more. America is pretty boss, to say the least.
One of the more interesting, or more eccentric Olympians, is Johnny Weir. I'm not hating, but he is ridiculously odd. One can tell that he deeply loves ice skating, deeply. I thought he was a sangfroid until he gave head whip to the crowd. But I think that the judges didn't score him according to the level of finesse in his routines. He was pretty good, and I think that the judges dislike him because of the amount of sass he has brought the already sassy sport of figure-skating. Besides that, after all of the figure skating was over, I stunningly watched the commercial for Johnny Weir's new show. He is anything but malcontent with himself; that guy is crazy. It was a little quixotic for him to be wearing heels and a fur coat. I'm not sure whether to be uncomfortable or baffled in amazement at how shocking someone can be. Overall, great Winter Olympics this year! :D
