the first 2 gold medals of 2006 Olympics go to Germany

How cool is that!!! We of course watched both the Nordic Combo and the Men's Biathlon and it was so exciting until the very last minutes!!!

The Opening Ceremony Last night was alright. The most exciting thing was still the "secret Guest" who'd sing "Imagine" right after Joko Ono herself had done a speech about peace and that "secret Guest" being a quite old looking Pert Gabriel with a sock on his head. The Fireworks in the end were cool and as an Olympics lover at heart the lighting of the flame still brought tears to my eyes. And I have to say Luciano Pavaroti singing Puccini's "Nessun Dorma" was quite impressive as well, seeing how he does not perform anymore usually and I like that aria. So yeah.

Afterwards we watched some more Buffy Eps and we had to stop at around 2 a.m. right after Tara got shot and Willows eyes go first black and then blood red o_O; so tonight it will be uber Willow stripping that Warren geek of his skin... alive... fun night.

right now, Skating is on and it's all or nothing for the dutch men... so I gotta go and root of them now :D :D :D

I'm for Germany, Netherlands and Japan, but also in general for anyone who loves the sport for the sport and not because they're being pushed into it (*hint* Mr. Davis *hint*)
