Vancouver 2010...
Today was the closing ceremonies of the Torino 2006 Winter Olympics. I watched part of the ceremony, which was pretty cool until it came to Vancouver's 10 minute bit. Since the next winter Olympics will be in Vancouver in 2010, they handed off the Olympic flag to the current Vancouver mayor. I must say that I was a bit disappointed by what they did during the 10 minute spotlight. Seriously, what's with the guy in snowshoes standing on his head on his snowmobile??? Hopefully the opening ceremonies in four years will be more interesting.

That seems to be the consensus about the Canadian portion of the ceremonies.

Yah, I've heard the same thing from a lot of people.
It'll be interesting to see what they actually do in four years.
