So in a few hours, on tape delay, the work will get a glance at the opening ceremonies of the XX Olympics in Torino, Italy. I always like watching the Olympics. But the older I get the cooler I think they ate especially the winter Olympics (minus ice skating). And now that the Olympics have embraced Xtreme Sports as real sports, I can enjoy them even more. Maybe it was a move by the Olympic organizers to make the Olympics cooler and make more money well they did. I mean who can blame them snow boarding is so cooler than Curling. I don’t get me wrong Curling is cool and all but think about it. Some might say that sports like snowboarding take the prestige and tradition out of the games. I say that snowboarding adds some edge to the Games.
On a side note there is a guy named Jason Smith who is competing in Snowboard cross. Smith is from Durango. Although would probably not claim to know me. But still I am routing for this guys. So hopefully, in the next 14 days you will turn your boob tube to NBC and root for your favorite country or athlete.
