No need for you to worry, too! I'm just crazy.
Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm kind of waiting to talk to my mother to confirm that there's nothing actually wrong -- my father would tell me he feels fine, but leave out some crucial thing.
Crossing fingers.
Canadia get its own team???
We have not won a medal yet. How can we not win in kayaking? And Canoeing? Didn't we invent the canoe?
Since I wasn't around to talk about the opening ceremonies, my friends and I were saying that Beijing is giving a lot for the Vancouver 2010 opening ceremonies to live up to. Then I started thinking of Canada's greatest invetions. I got: the zipper, butter tarts and the snowmobile. Yep, those opening ceremonies are in trouble.

What about instant coffee? I think a Canadian ancestor of mine invented instant coffee! Or at least manufactured it....
In other Olympics news, I wish what's-her-name Coughlin would say her name right. Coff-lin! Not cog-lin.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm just crazy.
No, your dad would just say he felt fine and leave out some important bit. That's not crazy, that's a daughter validly waiting for reassurance and confirmation.
Which reminds me, need to call dad so he can tell me he's fine. Then I'll talk to my stepmom to be sure he actually is.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Insent, Nilly!

I was just reading that some half-French guy won Togo's first ever Olympic medal. In kayaking. He said he's only ever been to Togo once. As a baby. (His dad is from there)

I'll have to check that out.
We also have Standard Time to our credit. Well it was a Scotsman living in Canada. And it wasn't approved until he left Canada, but there's a park named after him in Halifax!
I can see it now...Vancouver Olympic Committee brings you Time Zones! A journey through the world an hour at a time. Half an hour later in Newfoundland.

Basketball? Nah, that won't work. Um, blood transfusion? Hopefully that won't even come up.
Broomball? The Canadarm?
Yeah, I got nothin'.

Googling didn't come up with anything, so it must have just been a plant. I think it was the Lefebvres.
