Loool now that I think about it it's true; there are shows that I just can't stay awake to. it used to be documentaries but as I've grown older, I now love them...

I forgot what curling was...then I was at B-Dubs with a few friends and it was on. We constantly made fun of it during the night, haha!

^ I love commenting on curling. Like, turn the volume down and really exaggerate.

"Oh, oh look at her sweep! And the stone is going, going, going, could they score a point here, they very well could, it's looking good and YES! KNOCKED THE OTHER TEAM'S STONE RIGHT OUT OF THE CIRCLE! SCORE! SCORE! And just LOOK how happy they are!!!"

I'd love to see the commentators on TV act like that. In reality they're mostly silent and say something like "Mmmhmm, yeah that was a well placed guard....." every five minutes or something.

I don't actually find curling difficult to watch. If you just sit down and concentrate on what's going on you can really get into it. Have to say some of the women on the Russian team are quite attractive so that may have helped keep my attention. But even still it really isn't bad, just give it a chance.

Curling is pathetic. All that deep concentration, breathing and silence for what?..To toss a stone across ice?? lol

All my male friends commented on the females playing. "At least we have eye candy."

Hey MH folks!

How's everyone doing?

 

[goldb]

very good cheers for asking. I've finally reached Belgium and I'm staying at my bro's place. I still find the "azerty" keyboards very annoying even today...
My trip was so long, after a 3 hour wait at Dover and 2 coach changes we finally made it to Liege with a 4HOUR DELAY!!!! but it's all forgotten now...

how's everyone else?

 

[Bugzee]

Oh cool goldb! I hope your enjoying it so far dude!


LOL 4 hour delay you know! Damn! Well, at least you made it safely to Belgium!

 

[Dive]

I'm still sad that Ohno didn't win Gold. Bronze is good though, especially for his fault in the race. His move in the semi-finals was so awesome, though.

^ Tbh Vancouver 2010 has been disappointing *so far*...I expected more awesomeness! I'm hoping that the bobsleigh runs will be enjoyable to watch ....compared to the curling.

Spoiler: Oh and on, another completely random note...

Cool Runnings was the shiz back in the day!

I love that movie!

Eh. I never intently watch the Olympics. I casually tuned in when Ohno was on, which made me happy since I've always enjoyed watching him perform. Summer Olympics have more event I like watching.

And on a side note: I'm getting my DS games back! I had lost four games about a week ago, but the hotel I stayed at found them. =) Such a pain that UPS is charging my parents $30 just for a small case with four games in them...

 

[iThePirate]

the olympics is over, fuck. im depressed.

 

[Googlez_kun]

Olympics?Guess i missed it...

Aaaaaaaahhhh hello MH!!! writing to you from Krakow, Poland! the final stop before going back to Belgium. Though we only got to Krakow today it's the best of 3 cities we've visited. We were in Wraclow from Monday to Wednesday, Warsaw from Wednesday to today and Krakow til Monday. It's a great joruney, such friendly people; it's been so much fun trying to explain the simplest thing using nothing but english and signs to a person who doesn't understand your language.

The pics will be up in a few days, we're going to the Salt Mines in Wieleizka tomorrow, so many more pics!!! Hope you guys are good!!!

 

[Dive]

I'm glad you've been having fun!

And what's up with MH? Who broke the code for Firefox?

 

[soDeq05]

And what's up with MH? Who broke the code for Firefox?

really?
i'm using Firefox too and it works fine with me.

 

[Dive]

Seems its just me. Weird. Oh well. IE works fine, so I'll just use that to browse the forums.

 

[Bugzee]

I switch between Firefox & IE a lot lol. I don't even know why! Depends on my mood I guess..

 

[igotthegoods]

I'm using FF and it's been working fine for me. Although, I also sometimes browse MH using Safari on my phone. A couple of days ago when I was doing this, I was temporarily getting the same type of screen for the forum that you posted here, but I just thought it was due to the forum updates that the techs were working on. It's working fine on both Safari and FF for me now, though. *shrug*

Oh well, at least you're able to get on here normally again so you can feed what I am assuming is a MH addiction (it's ok, I've got it, too ). That's all that matters.
