Olympic Reading Material

I know most of you are probably watching the Olympic opening ceremonies. I just watched the Georgian congregation walk out, and they were probably the only folks there that weren’t smiling, for obvious reasons (video here). I’m always amazed at the random African and other tropical countries that send athletes to the Winter games. Ethiopia just came through with a single skiier. Where does that guy practice?

BendBroadband subscribers will have access to the NBCOlympics.com videos, so I’ll probably be checking that out now and again.

Now, some reading…
