This is what a multi medalist looks like

The Czech speedskater, who has won 2 golds and a bronze, was being shot by Czech TV, in front of the cauldron.

As happy as an eastern European can look with three medals!

haha at the sombre medal-winner. Maybe his country is angry with him for not winning more.

I like the ice sculpture in the last post - did you stick it in the freezer at the end of the night?

'Tis true...my dad is an eastern european at heart--cursing the fact that Canada can't win more metals.

L, Jenn was telling me that perhaps I should indicate that it was a female speedskater that had won the medals. ;-)

One of my co-workers is Czech, and told me the story about how this skater was discovered on some lake in the hinterland, and coached to success. Long, but interesting, story.

oh. I guess I'd look sullen too if people were always mistaking me for a boy.
