Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, flaming otters, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Much strength to you, Jen.
Capoeira can be a sport. Ice dancing less so.
Watching Bones. Man, the preaching and repetition of facts really stands out when you have no emotional investment in the characters. And DB dumped a bunch of weight.
Off to phone meeting.
msbelle--that bites. Does it mess with your work plans?
I'm with Jesse and DX. Ice Dancing has to go. And I say this as a huge fan of all forms of figure skating.
ION, anyone watch Survivor?
I will be watching it in about half an hour. I'll get back to you after it airs. I'm liking this season a lot.
Biathalon cracks me up -- so practical!
But I LIKE Ice Dancing!
As long as we're going to have subjective scoring in the Olympics (and I can certainly see the arguments agaisnt it) we should keep the Ice Dancing.
ooo, msbelle, that sucks. I was all gonna post as to how you must be in the air by now, but no.
Burrell, you remind me of one of the guys on Miami Ink (TV show about tattoo shop) who had a baby, and from then on, whenever he wasn't at work and anyone asked what he was doing, the answer was always "holding baby!"
hrmmm.
Well, I'm not holding the baby right now as it happens. He's crawling around on the floor, refusing to be tired anymore now that the painkillers have kicked in.
But it's dancing! Dancing isn't a sport!
I realize the Extreme DanceSport Ballroom people would disagree.
Where's Alibelle, dang it? I wants to see me a kerfuffle!
If ice dancing goes then so should equestrians!
I still don't understand the Biathlon
Biathalon is doing something extremely aerobic, while mixing in intervals of great precision where you want your breath and heartbeat to be as calm as possible. It's very hard to shoot accurately while your heart is pumping a mile a minute.
I fully acknowledge that I'd rather watch the subjective stuff (skating, ski jumping, diving, whatev) -- races of whatever format are only so interesting.
Noooo, not the pretty horsies!
Dancing is athletic. Haven't Dancing with the Stars and Skating with Celebreties taught you anything!?
Yeah, they've taught me that I'm happier watching Animal Planet.
Biathalon cracks me up -- so practical!
"It's skeet shooting, you idiot, not ski-- Oh, what's the use?"
