Another four years

Well, the olympics came to an end today to my dismay, i love the winter olympics, i find them so much more fun than their summer counterpart, what with the speed skating and the skiing and the snowboarding and the hockey, i could do without having to watch the figure skating events and the curling, but i must admit that curling is much more interesting then baseball even though i don't understand it. And i just found out that Ireland actually had athletes in the games, they didn't do very well, but that's to be expected from a country that doesn't really have winter. They had 4 athletes, 2 for alpine skiing and one for cross country and one for skeleton, but like they say, nobody careens down an icy slope head-first on a cafeteria tray quite like the canadians. Well, there are now four years left until the next winter olympics, and i really really hope i'll be able to go, since they're in Vancouver, and maybe i could compete in the winter games after that, yeah right, only if they introduce downhill snowboarding, unless i take up speed skating in my old age, it seems that that's what a lot of people do, it seems like a lot of the good ones only take up speed skating after they've done something else, like Clara Hughes, or Cindy Klassen, or Joey Cheek, or Shani Davis. But since i'm a jack of all trades, master of none in sports, i doubt that would ever happen, well that and the fact that i'm lazy, but i'm sure that if i got some kind of motivation i could do it, but of course that would require me to get up, so i probably won't be able to scratch get an olympics medal off my things to do list. Well, i guess i'll just have to settle with going to the soccer World Cup in a few years, but as a referee.
