  • 21:31:41: US men took gold in the 4-man bobsled. I remember winter games decades ago, when we stunk up the joint in sports like this. #olympics

Tax stuff all packed up and ready to ship to CPA. While I worked on this, the pups dozed. There is something very wrong with that.

I blame opposable thumbs.

Dessert

I've had some wonderful desserts over the years. Flourless chocolates cakes. Apple dumplings. Creamy bread puddings--don't roll your eyes at me I love bread pudding--and fruit cobblers.

But my favorite way to end a meal is with a couple of pieces of good chocolate, 3 or 4 plain cookies (butter, vanilla wafers, shortbread), and the last of the wine or a fresh cup of coffee.

...when you see an actor whom you recall as a younger Dad-type in movies now playing the elderly dad/grandfather in a new TV series.

It's Craig T Nelson. I remember Poltergeist, when he seemed, well, youngish.

Then I look up Poltergeist and see that it was released in 1982.

28 years ago.

Just throw a blanket over me.

Congratulations to the Canadian team and Hawks Seabrook, Toews, and Keith. I'm struck by how much younger Duncan Keith looks without his helmet. He's like, twelve. Ok, maybe seventeen.

I'll miss the Winter Games. I love watching the sports that aren't often televised. Short track. Speed skating. The skiing events like biathlon and Nordic combined. Luge and bobsled and skeleton. I even enjoyed the figure skating, even though I cried during the women's finals for Joannie Rochette.

Made my room reservation for WFC. I'm looking forward to it already.

Monday awaits. Ya-effing-hoo.

Calvin : You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes : What mood is that?
Calvin : Last-minute panic.

Was there a mascot for these Games? Some little creature? I don't recall seeing anything in particular.
