I like the Winter Olympics a lot better than the Summer Olympics. I actually watch the Winter Olympics. I was very sad to see the Georgian luger Nodar Kumaritashvili die during his training run today. Now I will be very nervous watching a contest I usually enjoy a lot. They say the track is too fast and there is no padding against steel beams that are erected along the sides near the bottom. I guess they will have to fix that by the day after tomorrow when the real luge competition begins. The opening ceremony is beginning now. I hear it will be much different from the Chinese opening ceremony.
