Dick Cheney shoots his hunting buddy…there’s not much more to say other than…What-ever. He may want to re-think his positions on campaign finance after this. Possibly gun control, too.
Does anyone understand the new figure skating scoring system? I%2 ... Continue reading »

    I see that I am not alone in the confusion with the new skating scoring system. I found the complete rules in PDF form, tried to read them but my head started hurting. I am glad that you recognize Michelle Kwan for being the class act that she is. Let me know if you figure the scoring system out. I am going to take to aspirin and try again in the morning.

    My Olympic viewing is rather hit and miss. If I'm around and it's on, I'll watch, otherwise I miss it. And often I'm working while it's on so I'm not paying attention. So no help here with the scoring system; I missed the figure skating altogether! :-( I am aware there's some controversy and confusion out there.

    Hey, was anyone else disappointed in the Opening Ceremonies? They've been breathtaking the last few times and these were..... meh. (A couple of good moments, like Pavarotti, but otherwise pretty mediocre.)

    Re 'SwampHag'.... my sons would disagree. *LOL*

    Kmilyun,

    Any luck? I did post a link to a Yale Statistics Prof's analysis (LOL!!!!), but I'm with you...2 aspirin and lots of questions later, I still don't get it.

    Swamphag,

    I missed the opening ceremonies entirely -- first time in years I haven't seen it. Now that the Games are in full swing, though, it's practically required viewing here where the men control the remote. ;-)

    Random comments to your random ramblings: Didja happen to catch Letterman and The Daily Show Monday night? Stuff like Cheney's hunting accident is the manna from heaven for comedy writers.

    Nope, can't fathom the scoring for the skaters -- math makes my head hurt.

    Congrats to Sticks on his awesome GPA! And welcome home to Dancergirl - that jet lag is bad. She must have enjoyed the warm weather (until today -- but it's still nicer than it must have been in Ireland).

    Enjoyed your conversation with the authors of the blogging book!

    Donna, I saw a little bit of the Letterman show Monday...it's really is manna from heaven. Thanks for the nice comments! Sticks says thank you, too, as he informed me that he passed the pretest for AP Physics next year. I shudder at the very thought but he's looking forward to it. I was right -- he is smarter than me...LOL
