Since Canada has been having center stage here with the Olymipics, I have a question for all you Harmybroads. -- CM>^.,.^<, 11:49:27 02/23/10 Tue [10]
Now, lots of us have a fav Harmkins in uniform look, be it the khakis, flight suit, mess dress, dress whites, or whatever.

Some of us were overjoyed to see Harm in a suit and trenchcoat, some loved a more casual Harm in jeans.

Then, there are the various fantasy Harms, like Shellyanna's Harm on a horsey (and the one she got was not the one she'd dreamed of, we know!).

But ever since the opening ceremony, CatMom has wondered if we haven't missed a perfect fantasy Harm. That would be MOUNTIE HARM.

Tell me I am not the only Harmybroad who had this thought?

The girl who skated two days after her mom suddenly died broke my heart!

- Oh, yeah, and she did a wonderful job, too. You could tell that she was barely holding it together when she finished, though. I don't know how she did it. (NT) -- Lee, 10:50:59 02/25/10 Thu
  - Especially considering she had fallen in the warm up (NT) -- Katiegirl, 17:16:35 02/25/10 Thu
  - I can't imagine the shock. Joannie is an only child and she was very close to her mother. But I think the strength of character and discipline an athlete has to have, will help her through this. Not skating would have been understandable, but she must have known her mother would have wanted her to continue. But what a tribute to her mother, that skate was. (NT) -- Cece, 17:41:50 02/25/10 Thu
    - Am watching the last skater as I type. Is it wrong for me to hope that she falls so that Joannie can hold her bronze spot? (NT) -- Katiegirl, 23:47:06 02/25/10 Thu
      - Katiegirl, I felt the same way. She did a great skate, but she didn't have as many points as Joannie from the short program. Both my DH and I got choked up during Joannie's skate. That music was so sad. I'm so happy she got the bronze. And also, that skate from Kim was amazing. Wow! (NT) -- Cece, 00:21:32 02/26/10 Fri
        
        Saw it on the replay. She was fab, and I think everyone was rooting for her. What a sad story. (NT) -- CM>^.,.^<, 07:49:19 02/26/10 Fri
- I think that this Olympics' figure skating competition was perhaps the best I've ever seen, and I haven't missed one since 1968. There were so many spectacular performances, so many touching stories, so many skaters who, instead of choking and falling during their routines, rose to the occasion and skated the performances of their lives. I do have to give the platinum medal to Joannie though. To do what she did under the circumstances - unbelievable. I get misty-eyed just thinking about it. (NT) -- Ann, 11:22:08 02/27/10 Sat

I had to type these numbers up, so I've done them side by side in winning order. I hope it's not confusing.

Congratulations to the top countries, but special congratulations to the small countries who not only competed, but have won medals.

Maya asked me to mention Slovenia, which has got a silver and bronze. Slovenia only has a population of 2 million, so that is an amazing feat CONGRATULATIONS SLOVENIA!!!

(I'm sorry this isn't clearer, but I've spent a long time trying to make it clear....and IT WON'T do what I want...grr.}

I'll update the medal count tomorrow. -- Cece, 21:00:55 02/19/10 Fri [9]
Congratulations to the USA for 4 golds yesterday. But WAAAHHH....I was really pulling for Plushenko. I know Lysecek is a wonderful skater and he totally deserved to win with his better skate, but Plushenko has always been magic for me, ever since I first saw him about the age of 15. Of course, I wanted Canada's Patrick Chan to win, but it just wasn't his time. He's only 19, so it's not like

I also feel sad for Plushenko, as this could very well be his last Olympics, and I'm going to miss him. Russia only has one gold to this point, which is such a change from when they dominated, particularly in skating.

I also loved Takahashi, Johnny Weir, Fiorent Amodio (great back story), and I loved Michal Bresina (Czech Republic) who skated to American in Paris.

Meanwhile, despite the technical gliches, Vancouver is having one heck of a party. It never stops and everyone seems to be having a good time. The weather is fabulous, at least for now, and Vancouver is looking pretty nice.

Congrats everyone.

8. Switzerland 3-Gold 0-Silver 1-Bronze = 4

- Well here's another tid bit - as it relates to skiing. Why the blue lines? I must admit I was wondering about them as I watched the skiing last night. Wondered about the green plants at the ski jump over the weekend too. Hope you find this article informative. Check out the link inside. -- usmgrad, 18:23:45 02/18/10 Thu

First of all, yes Gibson, I saw it....Canada's first gold ever on Canadian soil, won by Alexander Bilodeau in the men's mogels.Congratulations Canada!! Alex has a very moving back story. He gave up his interest in junior hockey when he was very young, because his older brother, who has severe cerebral palsy, couldn't skate. His brother has been by his side all his life, and is his biggest supporter.

Here is the total medal count up to last night:

1. France 2 0 1 (3) Leading in gold.
2. Germany 1 3 0 (4)
3. U.S. 1 2 3 (6) Leading in medals.
4. Canada 1 1 1 (3)
5. South Korea 1 1 0 (2)
6. Russia 0 0 1 (1)

Congratulations Everyone!

DH and I went down town, and walked around doing very little for about 8 hours. There were thousands of people milling the streets, and the atmosphere was fabulous. When it got dark, and the restaurants, beer gardens, clubs, street entertainment etc, were filled with Vancouverites and our fab visitors, it was just so exciting. At one point, we heard an enormous roar, and that's when we found out about our first gold medal won inside Canada. Yaaaayyyy.

I'm making a web album of street scenes just to give you a sense of the atmosphere.

So, any Olympic highlights from anyone else?

OLYMPICS update: First official day of the games. -- Cece...reporting from the Wet Coast, aka the Left Coast...Vancouver., 18:01:41 02/13/10 Sat [5]
I posted this video below, but I'll post it again as it's as much a tribute to all Olympian athletes as it is to Canada. This song, "I Believe" is sung by 16 yr old jazz singer from Montreal, Nikki Yankofsky, and we've been seeing it on tv for the past couple of weeks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrCA0HK-yO0">Click here.

Okay, today the weather is NOT cooperating, and it's rainy and dreary. When Vancouver has clear weather, it is intoxicatingly beautiful--clean and fresh, with glass towers and pink cherry trees, agaist a backdrop of snow capped mountains, tall trees, and blue sea. Even in the Winter, people sit outside at their fave coffee shops (on virtually every street corner). We are a city of technophiles, health nuts, protestors, and druggies, with large gay and Asian populations and people who come from everywhere else but here. I am totally in love with this city and have been since I got here in 1971.

BUT when it's rainy and dreary, espectially when we have the world visiting us.....AKKKKK....we all take responsibility for the weather, and go around apologizing. Afterall, if you can't SEE the mountains, what's the point?

So it's all a little nerve wracking. We NEED people to admire and love us....LOL. So we are praying to the weather gods to take the darn rain, and deposit it on the Sahara. They NEED it.

We are also still shocked and saddened over the loss of 21 yr old Georgian luge athlete, Nodar Kumaritashvili who died yesterday. It's unbelievable.

I am admittedly biased, but I really enjoyed the opening ceremonies, (except the torch thingy that went wrong.) I thought it was fun and classy, and not over the top. The technical aspect were arty more than showy, and I particularly liked the whales, and the big bear, and the fact that the audience was used as a canvas.

I loved the poem, "We are more" by slam poet, Shane Koyczan. I also loved the opera singer, Measha Brueggergosman, who sang the Olympic hymn. I've never heard her before, and I was impressed. Here is a youtube of her singing, Night and Dreams. It's haunting. Click here. I though k.d. lang was fabulous. Her version of Leonard Cohen's, Hallelujah, was so touching. Wow, she still has great pipes.

I'll let you sports fans write about the actual sports events. I haven't had the chance to see very much, other than some speed skating, but I'm looking forward to seeing more. Meanwhile, DH and I plan on going down town tomorrow to see some of the free goings on.

Okay...a one and a two and a three....ALLTOGETHER, do the weather dance. "Rain, rain, bugger off please,/ Let us see some flowers and trees./ Take the fog and leave some snow,/ While we all sing GO CANADA, GO!!" (Insert country of choice.)

Football Results - SuperBowl! -- judi, 23:10:48 02/10/10 Wed [10]
Football season is over!!!!

What a SuperBowl up to the last two minutes. Congratulations to the "Who dat?" Saints. I better watch what I say, I might get sued by the NFL.click here for details
But back to the Superbowl. Harm says it was such an exciting game. Harm says, Peyton isn't really to blame for the loss. Some of the coaching decisions were bad like when Indy stopped the Saints on 4th and goal. They just did 3 running plays with a practise squad
running back. With the interception, it appeared that Wayne didn't run the route right. In the end, it was the Saints defense that did it. Still you can't take anything away from the flawless game that Brees played and the near flawless game Manning played. Harm
was just happy the game was better then the commercials this year.

But on to the results. We had two pools together so I'll do the big one first. There are two winners here that did much better then the other 4. And that is dg with a score of 5 and Katiegirl with 6. Since dg did one point better then Katiegirl, you will get Harm first.
Sooooo dg and Katiegirl, y'all get to spend a week with

Congratulations dg and Katiegirl!!!

The other four Superbowl contenders are Jen, Debbi, Martian Barb and doc. Y'all get to take a shower with

Ok, now for the best of the rest. Actually, this winner had the best score of everyone including dg and Katiegirl. She had a -2 score. She was almost perfect, so we are going to give her an extra night with Harm when dg and Katiegirl are finished with him. That
winner isssssssssss Cece, the yenta!!!!!. You get to spend two nights with !!!

Superbowl picks -- judi, 15:04:22 02/03/10 Wed [28]
It's Superbowl time!!! That means there is only one game. I'm going to do this in two chunks. The first chunk will consist of those who got the right teams in the Superbowl. Whoever picks closest to the score and winner will get a week with Harm. The second chunk will
be everyone else guessing the winner and the score to get a night with Harm. Harm's already cleared it with Mac. Actually, this required lots of 'discussions' in the bedroom but he finally won out.

So here we go:
The two teams in the Superbowl are: Indianapolis Colts vs New Orlean Saints

The harmies still in the running for a week with Harm are: dg, Katiegirl, Martian Barb, Jen, doc and Debbi! Y'all choose the winner and the score for a week with Harm!

The rest of the harmies choose the winner and the score for a night with Harm.

This week was hard to compute. Speaking of which, I noticed cw playing, but I digress. So what I did was to add the differences between your scores and the real scores. Then I attached 5 points to the winning teams and subtracted that from the total. So the lowest scores win. Is that as clear as mud? Let me explain using the winners figures. The inner is Sunset! Sunset actually had the Colts winning 28 - 17. The actual score was 30 - 17 so she was only 3 pts off. She actually had the NFC game right but had the umbers flipped. Her difference was 6pts. That adds up to 9. She got only one of the right teams going into the Superbowl so we subtract 5 which equals 3.

Sunset, you get

for the night!
Sunset!!!

One word on the two games from Harm. WOW!!!!!! and that is a direct quote. In the first game, the Jets came out and seemed to control the game. Harm thinks Mark Sanchez is going to be a top qb. The Jets have a great defense, but then there is Peyton Manning. Once he figured them out, he was on a tear.And then there was the NFC game. Can Favre be any tougher? Who does he think he is? Harm?

Ok, back to the prizes. Oh yea, Katiegirl, you didn't put down the scores so you will be at the bottom doing you-know-what.
In second place with scores ranging from 5 to 15 are Martian Barb (12), usmgrad (10), doc (10) and Araninda (5). Y'all did good, so you'll get a nice long make-out session with

In third place with scores from 16 to 30 are Debbi (20), Angela (18), rmhlrkr (21) and dg (16). Y'all get to be stranded in the desert with

In fourth place with scores ranging from 33 to 40 are tamk3 (37), kleigh (33), cw (38), and Cece (36). Y'all get to help escape from Palmer.

The Harmies who did the worst were Mac (48), Lee (51), Katiegirl and Jen (46) So you three get to bring up the last of the year.

I'll put up the rest of the Superbowl contest in a few days.

Football Picks Playoffs Week Three -- judi and Harm (sorry we missed last week), 14:09:03 01/19/10 Tue [23]
Wow, what a weekend with one huge surprise. I'm devestated that the Cowboys didn't make it a game. Were they overconfident after the previous weeks blowing out opponents and the Vikings falling? Who knows. Harm says before this weekend the best teams were
the Saints, Colts, Vikings, Chargers and Cowboys. Obviously, either the Boys or Vikes had to go but what happened to San Diego and they're powerful offense? Now the Jets are the Cinderella team with a rookie qb, Sanchez. So who's going to come out on tope this
weekend?

Since there are only two games, I'm going to ask for scores as well as picking the winners. The ones closest will win a night with Harm. Superbowl picks updates are there as well. Since I've been messing up some, please let me know if there are any errors.

Game One:New York Jets @ Indianapolis Colts

Game Two:Minnesota Vikings @ New Orlean Saints

Superbowl Teams Update: I hope I'm right:

Still in the running with two teams still live:
Colts vs Saints: dg, Katiegirl, Martian Barb, Jen, doc and DEBBI 2
Jets vs Vikings: Linda R - 2
Colts vs Vikings: Carrotts, tamk3 2

Kind of in the running with one team still live:
Ravens vs Saints: JAG Junkie 1
Chargers vs Vikings: Sunset 1
Chargers vs Saints: usmgrad, Araninda 1
Colts vs Cowboys: dg, rmhlrkr 1

Totally out of it with both teams gone:
Ravens vs Cowboys: Angela, manette 0
Chargers vs Packers: kleigh 0
Patriots vs Packers: Lee 0
