Evil, are the Storm going to beat LA?

The closing ceremony is being show right now on the first link should anyone be interested...as impressive as the earlier one...

I was following the track races...

Who won women's wheel chair track?


I know some of the people involved. How did the US team do?

I just followed Jess Galli mainly... I know that she got 3 silver, 1 gold, and a bronze. The bronze was with a relay. Who do you know on the team?

Those photos are inspirational and amazing. #20 made me cry. I mean, they all made me cry, but #20 more so.

I'm so impressed and delighted that the ceremonies look just as artistic as for the "regular" Olympics. Thank you for posting this!

Oh my gosh, please someone buy a racing wheelchair for Gabon! :( That is so, so, so sad. And to think he got all the way to Beijing and found that out at the last minute. :( :( :(
