I heard someone -- Scott Hamilton? -- say "He's here, he's Weir...." He did not say "Get used to it."

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.

good form rather than artistic merit
Yeah. My daughter kept asking what the commentators were talking about with the ski jumpers: how straight the back was, the positioning of the skis, etc. Unless you're familiar with the sport, it can be pretty incomprehensible to the novice watcher.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I also appreciate the argument that there shouldn't be team sports. Well, nothing bigger team-wise than a bobsled.
This reminds me, I watched a program last night that revealed that one of the many species of sabre-toothed cat that have cropped up from time to time had a brain only slightly larger than that of a bobcat, despite being rather akin to a bear in size and build. Which suggests it was probably rather stupider than a bobcat.

I watched Grey's Anatomy again. George made me cry and so did the shower at the end.
And they showed an extended promo for Sunday's new episode.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Yeah, I'm getting tired of the hardships of everyone's damn youth.

Olympics backstories, Trudy?
On, GA, I realized that not only did Dylan have to die so that none of the principals or Tucker did but also because he was the most connected to Meredeth. Oh well.
