1. I know you didn't claim you were better than them. I'm just asking you how in the hell you can be such a whiner.
2. They showed up.
3. I don't have anything to get over. I think every country SHOWED UP.

The Newfoundland men won curling gold for Canada. The province closed all schools on Friday afternoon so the kids could watch the match. It's the first gold won by Newfoundlanders (who aren't known for healthy living. )

Gushue's gold brings Rock to a standstill
Newfoundlanders bask in Games glory
The party's on with no end in sight

SPECIAL TO THE STAR
ST. JOHN'S, Nfld.—Let the parties begin.
Memorial University student Jason Crowley expressed the well-lubricated adoration of Canada's gold-medal curlers — four of whom hail from Newfoundland and Labrador — that energized the St. John's campus bar yesterday.
"Listen, the last time they closed the high schools for a person was when the Pope came," Crowley said, shaking a plastic beer cup. "So today, Brad Gushue is up there with the Pope."
Pope John Paul II visited St. John's in 1984. Yesterday, kids from kindergarten to Grade 12 were let out of school at noon to watch the curlers go for gold.
The streets of the capital city, silent for 2 1/2 hours and eight ends, jumped to life immediately after, filled with honking horns and flapping flags. The lively pubs of downtown St. John's were off to an early start.

Lead Korab couldn't wait to get to return to St. John's on Tuesday for the party he knew would still be going strong.
''I think St. John's is totally going crazy, the schools, the homes, the bars,'' he said.

Two more medals in women's speed skating for us. The woman who won the bronze has won five medals for us here!
The Czechs are looking pathetic on a five-minute PP in hockey.

I am gone for a while and you are lulled into a false sense of security and start telling lies about me!

I misspoke. The Czechs scored seconds after I posted & it's now 3-0. They've got the bronze.

My students are fascinated with curling. They told me that the peeps who do it wear dress shoes and push a rock.

Yes, the Czechs won, but the worst thing about the bronze-medal game from my point of view is that Alexander Olvechkin hurt his left hand. Not sure how severely, but he did come back to play later in the game.

And Poland, in the person of Tomasz Sikora taking the silver medal in men's 15km mass start biathlon? How did that happen? Poland has never won a biathlon medal of any sort. And I like the irony of Germany & Poland going 1-2 in the event.

Your students are kind of right!!
Seriously...rent the movie "Men With Brooms". You'll learn a lot about curling AND beavers.
