When you say early, do you mean like 5pm?

It's not the fact that they had Natives it's because it was such a big part of it. You want to show that Canada is a smorgasbord of races have Natives dancing among people of all races. The way it was done you'd think Canada was made up of nothing but Aboriginal people. Put a big damper on the cermonies for me, combine that with the hydrolics fucking up and a bunch of idiots running beside Wayne as he was driven to the cauldron it was a pretty big fail IMO. I'd give it a 5 out of 10.

Marched down Robson & Granville last night just after the ceremonies and it was just an awesome Olympic vibe everywhere. Even Batman (literally, a man dressed up in a Batman costume) was in on the craze wandering around Granville street. He was swarmed with people hugging and taking pictures of him while everyone chanted the national anthem.

I don't exactly know who put this show own between the GE Plaza and VAG, but it was awesome free entertainment with fireworks, music, and Olympic mock-players riding down the zip line. It was amazing to see Robson transform into this little rave show.

Does anybody know if you need to lineup for the Henekein House in the rain or are you lining up under cover? In addition is everyone parking at Richmond Centre and just walking across?

^^^ he won gold for the 5000m. on the broadcast, they said he was mobbed at a grocery store when people thought he WAS crosby. when people realized he wasn't, they were disappointed. he was wondering why speed skating was so popular in canada... lols.

it's huge in the Netherlands.
