It is official !. I was at GM place at 630am to hear the news with 18000 others..what a party

Should be a cool time. I love when the winters are in the western hemisphere, that way i am not watching the hockey at 3:00am.

This is going to be a good one! Opening Ceremonies in Vancouver though? Bring your umbrella!

I bet the place was just buzzing! Things got pretty loud in GM Place during the playoffs - but watching on TV this morning, it looked about twice as crazy when they made the official announcement!

What are you talking about? I am guessing the winter olympics right.

Too bad.

I hope Vancouver and the provincial government get through this without taking too heavy a financial shot in the nuts, but I wouldn't bet on it . . .

I like Vancouver.

This is a bad thing for Vancouver.

Sure would beat having to wear 100 layers because it's - 40 c outside. :p

I hope Vancouver does it like Calgary not like Montreal.

It's certainly cool to say I've now lived in two Olympic cities.

Anyone else here thinks Catriona Le May Doan is a babe, or is it just me?
