Just watched most of the closing ceremony - I say 'mostly' because the rest won't be on till the late show - and well....
1: I loved the opening, but the closing gave me bad flashbacks to the Up With People show I was forced to see when I was a Girl Guide. If you don't know what I'm talking about, consider yourself lucky.
2: The maple leaf creatures are going to breed with the giant Russian radioactive hamsters and take over the Earth - you have been warned!
3: I love Mounties, I do! My great grandfather was, like Sergeant Preston, a member of the Northwest Mounted Police (a precursor to the RCMP)), but the Rockette Mounties, and then the dancing ones with giant inflatable beavers??!?!
4: I heard reports that Neal Young dissed Jay Leno and said people shouldn't watch him. Oddly enough, this did not air on NBC [cough] Did that really happen?
5: Now the Olympics are over, maybe my drifting Canadian accent will go away.
6: Isn't B.C. beautiful? I can't wait to take Nin there some day and show her my other home.

Date: 2010-03-06 06:19 am (UTC)From:ROFLMAO, I commented to the Welshman that the bit reminded me of an Up With People show and he gave me one of those 'huh?' looks. I told him not to worry about it, but I definitely know what you were referring to.
Ah, the inflatable beavers and those moose...Rockette Mounties...
