Hi fans,
well, it was quite a day yesterday, i must say. With the two pairs pulling
out due to injury (Shen/Zhao and B/S) the event started later in the
afternoon. I got to the pairs in time for Jamie/David's SP. it was a real
treat filled with the side by side 3s, and the throw and the incredible
humour that these two have. then men were equally electric, especially
yagudin and sandhu. this morning maureen and i got a ride back to the
Delta Bess with Nicole Watt and her parents. i walked into the the lobby
of the delta said hello to Uschi, and DIck Button. Aaron Lowe is in the
room next to Maureen and me. Elvis walked onto the elevator this morning,
and we congratulated him. Maureen hugged emanuel congratulating him. He
sure gets nervous in crowds! tonight is the women's SP and pairs LP.
wish you were here. Emanuel did his 4t/3t and 3a/3t/3t in practice. this
may be his time. i must say he looks fine.

I think it's a mixed blessing that he fell and had trouble in his long program. I'm hoping it will be a lesson in humbleness for him (so that he won't have a...
