Remember that cauldron malfunction during the opening ceremonies? One of the legs didn’t raise up.
VANOC didn’t forget, that’s for sure. The closing ceremonies were off to a humorous (er, humourous) start when a mime popped on stage, tool belt around his hips, and plugged it back in before it raised into place.
It’s no Bob and Doug McKenzie, but not a bad comedic play from the Canadians.
It was great to (sort of) not work during the ceremony (says the guy typing away in the media center at 9:30 p.m.) and take it in as a spectator. If you’re interested enough to read this, you’ve probably already watched the on TV. If you’re wondering, yes, I kept my moose antlers.
Chuck, Larry and I depart for what is likely to be the mother of all border crossings tomorrow as everyone heads home.
It’s been a pleasure keeping this blog going, and I thank everyone for reading and commenting. Special kudos go out to all of our guest bloggers. You’ve all done amazing work!

Should have had Red Green do the repairs on the faulty cauldron.
