But, married to canadian from Vancouver, we were in town right before and hightailed out on Friday to avoid all the craziness. Just happened to be having lunch at Quay (to avoid the craziness downtown) when they closed down the seabus. <br /><br />http://www.bclocalnews.com/greater_vancouver/northshoreoutlook/news/84173252.html<br /><br />The 2 bus rides back was not fun.<br /><br />I'm not about boycotting the Olympics cause there is really some true talent from some people who deserve it like your boy, Alexandre Bilodeau. But I hear you on the money spent. Especially trucking in snow???<br />What I want to boycott is the American coverage of the Olympics, They make sure we watch every American athlete even if they finish in 12th. While we often don't get shown who wins 4th 5th and so on.urban crafthttp://urbancraft.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313982971250242728.post-60292911855167264092010-02-17T12:55:32.939-08:002010-02-17T12:55:32.939-08:00I remember your original post kind of, but I don&#...I remember your original post kind of, but I don't think I really read it. I never really thought about what the Olympics does to the area. Well no, scratch that, I did actually start to think about it when it was in China last. That is terrible. Thanks for bringing this issue to my attention. <br /><br />I will definitely fight it if they ever try to bring it to Detroit.Ginnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928304350897366869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313982971250242728.post-46152392133842332502010-02-14T08:34:23.986-08:002010-02-14T08:34:23.986-08:00Excellent photos - thank you for being there and s...Excellent photos - thank you for being there and speaking out!TMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04398562369770395011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313982971250242728.post-10583119501797065142010-02-13T17:24:53.748-08:002010-02-13T17:24:53.748-08:00thank you both! kntgrl, i love your sign! did you ...thank you both! kntgrl, i love your sign! did you ever run into problems with it?<br /><br />aly, i believe that your boycotting the games does do something. i assume that you've told at least one other person, right? that's raising awareness. maybe you made them think about it differently. maybe they went home and mentioned it to their family, one of whom started thinking differently. never underestimate the little things, you know!amy damehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12147616185803446276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313982971250242728.post-16606444965202457532010-02-13T15:59:45.486-08:002010-02-13T15:59:45.486-08:00Oh, now that is some nice crafting lady!

Another person I know has referred to the Olympics as the "5 c*ck rings of death" I know my boycotting of the games won't do anything, but it's an ethical choiceAly Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09157427838399159526noreply@blogger.com
