I just received a phone call from a fellow ice dancer! :D
 
I have consulted ice-dance.com about tonight's event. The Original dance will be a Latin Combination: Meringue, Cha Cha, Samba, Mambo, Rhumba. I believe you can pick any two. Vocal performances are now permitted. The costuming should be outrageous.

I also learned that the Yankee Polka and the Tango Romantica were the other two compulsory dances for this season, and I would have preferred either of those two to the 'Burger! The Yankee Polka is this amazing, fast-paced seizure (I know the first three steps!!), and the Tango Romantica is just :drool: when it's performed well. And I know more about those dances so I could have been even MORE geeky.

Also: an interesting bit of information to those who want to know more about how points are scored.

We have an expert in our midst...it may be a geeky expert but an expert! :wink:

Seriously?


:laugh: :wink:
Oh yes.

You have only seen the tip of my geeky iceburg (HA! no pun intended).

And if it was a dance I could actually do (for Olympic-level competitions they can pick from Pre-Gold up and that JUST happens to be my level), you'd all be in SERIOUS trouble.

And if my first love synchro was an Olympic event, I would just drown in a puddle of my own drool.

:nerd:

I think we all have subjects/hobbies/activities we qualify under the :nerd: category when it comes to discussing. Its cool when something really interests you and you have alot of knowledge on it.

Yours is on national TV this week! :laugh: :)
 
I should eat something besides Cheez-Its and dried apricots. :| I think we only have Eggos or cereal, and I think I'm all set with both for once.

My Party Shuffle is obsessed with Folsom Prison Blues.
I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
 
My dad's norton subscription ran out in September :scream: I've been after him for months to renew it. He keeps saying it's not needed because he runs it every week :huh: He was running it when I got here. It was scanning but there was also a message on the screen saying that it was protecting the computer from any viruses since September :der: :der: :der: My mom gave me her credit card to update it. :coocoo: If he would have gotten a virus, somehow that would have been my fault because I use the computer no more than twice a week. :|
 
OMG no one told me it was on at 7 tonight! I just missed Jamie and Ryan and I'm gonna be in trouble for not taping!!! :sad:

Its funny, I try to explain to my Dad to do similiar things. Check your Norton, clean your hard drive with a disc cleaner, etc.. I can just tell he doesnt understand. Like with the Norton, basically any virus created after September 05 could be on your Dad's computer. :yikes:

My Norton expires next month. So I need to update mine as well.
 
:wave: Home from work.

A couple of changes on the forum page, I see............

I noticed skating on the tv as I was leaving work. Was surprised that it was on early
 
:laugh: I just read about what happens in the skating. Obviously I wont say for the benefit of the skating :nerd:'s on here. But I may watch the Olympics tonight as a result. DRAMA! :laugh: :shifty:

:laugh: I wont say, but I will be curious as to your reaction to it. Being the resident skating :nerd: :wink:
 
I wonder how many chickens had to die to be this girl's dress. :crack:
 
"It seems to me that this dress is the world's biggest powder puff."
~Dick Button, moments before the feathers started flying off it.
 
Evgeny Platov AND Alexander Zhulin are their coaches?? :huh: Talk about drama...if I'm remembering the right couples...

Edit: I am. That is WEIRD. :crack:
 
Kariann said:
So was it just me or did the Japanease couple skate a bit slow for the music in the latter portion of the program?
No, that wasn't just you.

She's 35! I can't believe the ISU let her in! 21 is considered old age in this sport! :lol:
