Well Vancouver isn't "bikini town", as you put it, but I think they got there first with the whole "Sea to Snow" thing. "Sea to Sky", "Sea to Snow", what's the big difference? And yes, BOTH Las Vegas and Reno are bad ideas. I wouldn't call Reno a "cheap knock off" of Vegas, though. It's just...Reno. As the second largest city in a state where casino gambling is entirely legal, you're going to expect Reno to be the way it is.

Paul. There is no way all the construction you propose is going to take place in South Lake Tahoe, CA/Stateline, NV. Environmentalists would have a field day with it, and rightly so. Even I'd even be opposed to it. It's bad enough with what's already there. Really? Was it? Because I thought that Vancouver got there first with that one.... And Soaring, some looney bins have even proposed that Las Vegas should has a games, so why should it surprise you that someone would propose Reno? P.S. Paul, it ain't gonna happen on the North Shore either.

Sacramento is NOT an option. Not even close. My family lives in Sacramento county, so I'm more than familiar with the city and the area, all the way up to Tahoe, and to Reno.

Baron, if it was up to you, all athletes and sports would be eliminated, and the Olympic Games would consist solely a giant frilly production show, with an ice dancing number thrown in, no matter what the season. That's all you really, truly, care about. P.S. You're also really super self centered. "All these other sports mess up MY TV viewing, so they should be eliminated!" You're such a fucking JOKE.

Tonight's practice was long course, sprint sets. Example: Swim your best effort 100, note your time. Then, 10x100 on a 4 minute interval with 10 pushups or 10 sit-ups or 30 seconds of planks before each 100. Start from blocks or edge of pool. After set, 100 nice and easy, choice. Then, 1x100 meet or beat your previous all out effort. Then, warm down.

May 6, 2011 - Expo 86 25th Anniversary
OneTimeOnly replied to SkiFreak's topic in Vancouver 2010 Winter Games
I was there! Went with my family, stayed in the Pan Pacific Hotel which was brand new. Loved the 3-D movie in the Canada Pavillion, as well as the Circle Vision movie Disney produced for, IIRC, the Quebec Pavillion, and then there was another rotating theatre where you saw one movie and then the whole seating area pivoted around, to, I think, a second movie screen. Also remember riding the giant swinging space shuttle, the roller coaster and the Caribou log chutes. -
Art Deco is from 1925 to be exact, through the 1930's, followed by "Streamline Moderne" which followed Deco as a style and was often mixed with some Deco in the 1940's. In the 1910's, you still had a lot of Beaux Arts going on. Deco and Streamline are two of my favorite styles.

Maybe because nobody tried anything?

20 years? Try 250. If ever.
