1. I liked that beatnik poet.

At last at least one person in the entire Olympics I identify with!

[Lucy Goosey]

3. I liked him too....

but as a stereotypically reserved Canadian, I am somewhat embarassed? uncomfortable? with his unapologetically patriotic stance. Telling everyone how great Canada is doesn't seem very Canadian, really.


Seriously. I'm not even exaggerating.

7. I guess I've met different Canadians!

Quite a few of the Canadians I've met are super-patriots.

8. molson commercial notwithstanding nt

10. He wasn't any worse than our Carl Sandburg

or Walt Whitman who spoke for the varied people of the U.S. As for being reserved, you might be rather less reserved than my fellow Iowans. (Check The Music Man for an example):

"So what the heck, you're welcome. Glad to have you with us even though we'll never ever mention it again."

9. Actually I rather like the opening ceromonies,

Sure they're long, but still they're rather cool.

To each they're own.

11. I enjoyed them too
