2nd entry for February 22, 2010






These were 10-minute poses that H- took.
That night was the night of the Canadian team winning the Gold Medal in Men's Hockey. There was a constant and joyous commotion - almost a discomfiting one - filtering through the window as we worked.
I was happy to hear so many happy noises. It says something, though, that I can't recall a single car driving around with a flag after the Women's hockey team won their medal, (and they did it without the advantage of players who train year-round in what is probably the biggest hockey organization in the world.)
I do remember a radio phone-in on CBC discussing if the Women's hockey team were doing too much better than their competition, and does that make that event less valid for the Olympics?
