OT- Deb/Moonbeam
Posted: Sat Aug 16, 2008 6:44 amI've waited a week, but no longer. Would either of you please like to explain what the hell goes on up there after the ice melts? I mean I love hockey as much as anyone. But there is more to life than hockey and curling.
One full week into the summer Olympics and Canada still has ZERO medals!!! Embarrassing!
Apparently, somewhere there's a country called "Togo" that has won a medal.....TOGO
Canada is trailing Togo!
You two need to come in here and explain. Seriously this is embarrassing to the US too. We share a border for crying out loud. Even Mexico has a medal.
