Winter Olympics 2010

Hoping to see some figure skating, though sometimes the filler material in between events is more interesting, case in point a bit about the Olympic Torch being carried through Canada. My mom has a question for you folks north of us: do any of you know if the Torch passed through Prince Edward Island? Her grandmother on her dad's side came from PEI, so we have a special place for it in our hearts.

And my heart and prayers go out to the family of the guy on the Luge team from Georgia (the country): at least he left this world doing something that he was passionate about and that it happened at the greatest athletics event this planet hosts...

Hee! Those movies were actually part of the reason we got into the books in the first place, though we kind of found them simultaneously (ie. the local PBS station started advertising previews for the first movie, and then we found the books at the library).
