It's been crazy here in the north today. My wife works in Dobbs Ferry, I work in White Plains, and we live in Rye. It takes about 20 minutes to get from Rye to Dobbs Ferry, on a slow day. Today at 5pm, it was blizzard conditions in Dobbs Ferry, two inches of slush in White Plains, and downpouring rain in Rye. Crazy shit going on here. Anyways, onto the Olympics.
Got some more medals today, and they were good ones. Our women got shut out by Canada in hockey and Julia Mancuso moved up ten spots in GS, but you get no medals for 8th place. BUT! we also got medals. These included:
Gold: Men's Nordic Combined Large Hill - Bill Demong
Silver: Women's Hockey
Men's Nordic Combined Large Hill - Johnny Spillane
Freestyle Skiing Men's Aerial - Jeret Peterson
No Bronze! Also, let it be known, Bill Demong's gold is the USA's first gold EVER in nordic combined. So this year we got our first medal in nordic combined and then we got our first gold medal. Look out Scandinavia. We're bringing it in Nordic sports, bitches.
