5. Wow! What a wild day of skating!!
Yay for Johnny! 2nd in the short!! :woohoo:

And the Women! Poor Kimmy Meisner...And poor Miki Ando! That sucks that she had to withdraw...

Looks like Asada is going to take gold, despite that horrible fall.

I just read the Men's final results, which will be on ABC tomorrow...I'm happy. :)

6. Oh Johnny.... you bad bad boy!
I was glad to see Johnny metaled this year, even if it was only the bronze. And I was happy for Jeffery Buttle that he won, especially over that French guy who just gets out there and does jump after jump. Buttle is 25, and he is such an inconsistent skater he'll probably never again do as well.

As for the women, don't get me started!! How in the world did Carolina Kostner win the silver when she flubbed nearly every move in her long program? I especially think Yukari Nakano got robbed. I was sure she would be among the top three. Did anyone notice she's the best spinner currently around, and a great all around skater?
