Ooh, Nascar's over! Yay. But you're right about the ice dancing, though. At least they'll be some speed skating and skiing. :)

Lately, my wife has been watching ice dancing so she can mock their costums. There seems to be a requirement in the Olympics that ice dancing must have 70's style dress and painfully bright colors.

I just wanted to mention, because someone, somewhere (too bad I can't find it or remember), said that they wanted to see some curling in action.

Well, in the Deseret Morning News there was a little blurb about the Wastach Curling Club giving lessons in Salt Lake in April (I think it would be fun...).  $40 per person for four 2-hour classes.
