Evan Lysacek
lialia:
I really liked this SI article on how he beat Evgeni Plushenko last night. It rings true without taking sides.
I don’t know a lot about figure skating. I know enough to be able to understand the accomplishments and the mistakes and I enjoy watching it, but I don’t follow it. What I know? Both on Tuesday and again last night, when Lysacek skated, I couldn’t take my...

Things that should never happen
Sitting at a light side by side, waiting to take a left onto a freeway on ramp, are two cars. The first is me in my 1998 Kia Sephia. The second is some guy with hair like a Ken doll in a brand new BMW 750 Li. When the light changed, who would you expect to reach the freeway first?
The answer should never, ever, EVER be me and my 12-year-old car. Nor should I then be able to out-maneuver said BMW...

“90% of the Canadian people live between their border and ours.”
– NBC’s commentator during tonight’s coverage.
This may be the single dumbest thing ever spoken on American national television. I’m even including Sarah Palin in this one.
