Yah it's ridiculous. Me and my friends went last night at 10pm and found out first hand. We were not impressed.

And if you look on the Ozone official website... it says
"Open daily from 9 a.m. until 2 a.m., the Holland Heineken House will be an ideal place to catch up on the latest of the Olympics or simply relax with something to eat or drink. Access to Holland Heineken House is free and everyone is welcome but there are some restrictions for minors."

So yah......

That Dale Begg's guy looks like a prick and they were saying before his run that he's cold hearted or something along those lines.

I also found it amusing to see that little bitch from France, who went last, turn his back on Bilodeau when he went to go shake his hand after the final score was announced.

I saw his convoy... The SUV he was in had some serious armor.. Pretty cool to watch. Some idiot tried to walk on the road when the cop was blocking it. Turned around and nearly threw the kid off the road.. lol

Two olympians or former olympians got hit by his convoy, that's what I read on the scroll on Fox and Friends on Fox News this morning.

The great one is live on the Today show right now.

Also another interesting stat I heard on Morning Joe on MSNBC was the opening ceremony was watched by 32 million viewers in the US compare that to the summer games which was watched by 34 million and close to 100 million US viewers have turned in since the openings. Very impressive numbers.

I have a perfect view of grouse from my house.
It's total FAIL there. I see hardly any snow on the bunny hill, known as the cut.
