Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-02-22
- RT @danudey: I wish Vancouver was like this all the time. [Ditto. Maybe ppl will see ped malls make sense. Mainland shld be ped on wknds!] #
- Had a @jianghomeshi sighting today just outside the CBC Plaza. 5 yr old listens to Q all the time, but was too shy to go up and say "Hi!" :) #
- RT @smuttysteff HEY @MayorGregor I'm digging the party-in-the-streets wow-what-a-feeling Vancouver! Let's shut down Robson EVERY weekend! :) #
- OH: This marmot is surprisingly hairless … and aerodynamic #
- Fireworks again tonight. So far Q hasn't woken. So far. #
- RT @thebuzzer: @translink See & hear the huge crowds downtown through the Robson & Granville webcam http://ow.ly/19kzj [Unreal!] #
- Dear CTV: The only ones who think the athletes aren't living up to high expectations? You. Stop making them cry. They're doing awesome. #
- RT @polarisdotca: Best place to watch #olympics ISS cupola! RT @Astro_Soichi http://twitpic.com/14cdb8 – Vancouver, BC, Canada.Feb.20, 2010 #
- I love these TwitPics from space #
- Just watched the interview with Jon Montgomery from Whistler last night. AWESOME. What a charismatic guy. He's got a bright future ahead! #
- CTV post-race interview w/ Lindsey Vonn. Really? Mascara? Really!? #
- About to head downtown on our bikes. Not convinced this is a good idea, but we won't have to waiting for transit. Plus, geocaching meetup! #
- Back from a geocaching event in Yaletown with @hollyburn @_CanadianBacon_ @geodug and others, many from out of town. Great fun! #
- We "biked" thru the Plaza of Nations, CP lands, down to the Russky Dom. Incredible crowds. Very cool shoreline filled w/ 100s of Inuksuit! #
- The line to get into the Russky Dom (aka Sochi House, aka Telus World of Science, aka Science World) doubled back + forth right to Main St! #
- RT @seeking_balance: Oh dear! Vancouver may just consume more beer than Salt Lake and Torino COMBINED. #van2010 #olympics per @ctv #
- RT @gpsforthebrain: A says: "I think speed skating would be a lot more exciting with wolves." #qotd #olympics #
- Odd. Andrew Koenig (son of Star Trek's Walter Koenig) missing in Vancouver since Feb 14: http://bit.ly/cST1Cb (via @feliciaday) #
- Ugh. Even if you're wearing a helmet and surrounded by carbon fibre, crashes at 130+ kph are scary. #Bobsled #Vancouver2010 #
- 8 women in the 1500m short track "A" final. This will be interesting. #
- When did this speed skating become a team event? #
- Crazy. Men's 1000m short track "B" final has … 2 skaters. #
- In the end, the Korean got DSQ'd so only one skater "finished" the "B" final. Crazy. #
- 2 Canadian Hamelins in the 1000m short track final. Here it comes! #
- And no medals in men's short track tonight. #
- RT @hollyburn: @AnthonyFloyd Russia House was letting in people with small children without standing in line #
- An awesome Canada-themed bucket-list from @Muchmor: http://bit.ly/a8hwNH #
- RT @SlvrLambStudios: Found our first 2 geo caches! Hunting for more. The kids are loving it! [Congrats!] #
- Silver for Groves in 1500m speed skating! #
- Hmmm. I wonder if we'll see any Canadian defense this game. Not judging by the 1st minute. #
- I don't like harping on the amateur athletes + how they're not meeting expect'ns. These overpaid goliaths on ice? Not meeting expectations. #
- Who replaced #TeamCanada with the #Canucks #BadPenalties #Choke #
- Hehe "Crosby's the only thing Canada can get in the net!" – CTV commentator #
- Understatement of the night: If #TeamCanada doesn't score on this PP, the game's OVER. #
- Look at all the pretty passing #PassesDontScoreGoals #
- Apparently the ISU missed removing the horseshoe from #TeamUSA #039;s goalie Miller's ass. #
- OK, #TeamCanada gets one on the PP, but it's a #TeamUSA own-goal. I guess we'll take it. #
- Good pressure boys, but it helps if you actually shoot at the NET. #TeamCanada #
- Are you kidding me? You couldn't keep him from diving into that puck!? #TeamCanada #USAWantsItMore #StoryOfTheOlympics #
- So, we're sending Perry home, right? Bringing in Eberle? Please? #
- Shots on goal: CAN 45 USA 22. Final score? 5-3 USA. Any guesses as to which position made the difference in the game? #LetLuPlay #
- RT @kaler: Kessler goal epitomizes the game. Hustle win for USA. Canada was all pretty boy, superstar BS. #
- RT @smithcd05: Congratulations, British Columbia. Your advertising worked. Researching a trip to Vancouver. #
- RT @gillianshaw: "I'm just trying to build my resume, Marty's the best," a gracious Ryan Miller after US win. #Olympics #hockey #
