    lol no kidding.

    They're just awful. I dont know what they were smoking when they thought of those.

    But apparently the kids love them.

    I saw them yesterday.

    I love them.

    They're so cute.

    They're much better than that Inukshuk fellow or whatever his name is.

    The whole 2010 Vancouver Olympics is a complete joke.

    All of their representations of Vancouver and very inaccurate.

    Its such an embarrassment.

    I wont be anywhere near Vancouver when the Olympics are on.

    I saw Canada's Olympic welcoming ceremony at Torino and it was terrible. I hope that's not a reflection of what's to come.

    for the people that don't live in Richmond, i drive by the oval quite often, thought it might've been a good time to take a picture since it's starting to take form.

    taken from my cell so don't expect a lot of quality.
