I stayed up way past my bedtime to watch the ice dancing finals. Not that that's so odd. But I have noticed that a number of the Winter Olymipic sports have advanced a lot in the last decade. When free-style skiing, snow boarding and moguls skiing first came to the Olympics I have to say they were all pretty lame sports. This year they were at least interesting to watch, even if they still aren't my favorite. Except for the top couple or two, ice dancing used to be a giant yawn. These days the also-rans are beautiful to watch and the best are just that much better.

As one of our commentators said the judging wasn't a big issue this time for once. It's hard to get upset about about the order of finish. My thought on the skaters )

ETA: Did you ever see anyone more joyful than Tessa singing Oh, Canada?
