CTV Olympic Anthem

Well, yesterday morning I glanced at the newspaper and was shocked by the front page. A military commander charged with 2 murders among other things and then a young mayoral candidate and city councillor embroiled in a scandal with a university student. I thought, what is the world, at least our city coming to. This morning, the young candidate is admitting to multiple affairs. Unless the newspapers are becoming more like magazines and highlighting the salacious stuff that sells! Either way, I don't think this guy should mayor.

'Tastefully Done' has this 'Pasta in a Skillet' recipe that they describe as 'gourmet pasta in one pot'. I'll have to try that.

Here are some interesting videos I found:

Hey Christine
Oh my gosh this army guy is not only accused of the two murders they are now saying they are looking a "various" unsolved murders because of things he had admitted to. This guy is way scary!
Im getting excited about the Olympics. I have my post ready for Friday opening day :o)
Did you get much snow today. We really did not get as much as they said we would.

Thanks Pete, and same to you.

SoccerMom, we got about 5cms, not much really, we've been so spoiled this year, I'm getting lazy from not shovelling! It's scary about that army guy, you don't know who to trust.

That is such sad news. I stopped watching the news and reading the local papers (for the most part). It does seem like it's all sensational news, doesn't it? I read all my news on Google News and pick and choose.

I used to love watching figure skating during the winter Olympics. Now I can't stand the suspense!
