Did anyone see Sasha Cohen last night in the short program?
Oh, she was fabulous! Fantastic!
I love Irena Slutskia, she's sweet and a wonderful skater,
but I thought that Sasha outskated her by far.
Every single element of Sasha's was better, except for Irena's double axel, which was amazing.
I was surprised that Sasha only beat Irena by .03.
Looking forward to Thursday's long program!

Hi Hugs,
It was fun! We sat in Olive Garden for over 3 hours. No shortage of conversation! There were 6 of us. Abbie and Okiee were there. Both beautiful women. I knew that Okiee had an awesome personality, but didn't have a clue as to what she looked like. She looks 15 years younger than she is. Thin, fit, cute hairstyle. After reading her posts where she talks about driving 'the rig' I suppose I had an image in my head, and it didn't fit her at all. She's a girly girl. So is Abbie. Very pretty. I thought she'd be 'cute'. The other women that were there haven't been to this board, but I thought you'd be curious about Abbie and Okiee. It was fun to put a face to all the posts and now they feel like 'real' friends and not just cyber-friends. You know? We're all a bit spread out, so getting together often probably isn't realistic, but it sure was fun meeting them.

You have a good memory.
Mary

Hey Mary,
How cool on meeting up & chatting away.
You're lucky you were able to do that.
Maybe you all could meet up ever couple of months.
I kind of thought Abbie might be girly girl which I love of course, LOL
Okiee is too?

Yes...I love all our US skaters, I can't wait until tonight...I know we will get a medal for sure in this event. Question do you like the Winter Olympics or the Summer Olympics? And which even to you like the most either Winter/Summer or Both?

Hi Sheltielover,
Welcome to the board :)

Oh yes tonight will be fun to watch won't it?
I sure hope your right that we get some medal.

I like both Olympics but they each have much to offer, don't you think?
Which do you like best?

Hope we'll see you here again soon :)
