The Ice Posse

From Mary Wehmeier, a wonderful look at what it's like when former Olympic ice skaters get together for drinks, a bite to eat ("Hey! Eat! We ain't skating this Olympics!  They won't let us!"), and the ladies' long program.

One of the un-named Olympic Gold Medallists sitting next to me, eyes met mine and we did one of those... ut ohs.


When she finished-- well the house came apart with a standing ovation, including the posse who rarely stands.  Sarah however, like the typical 16 yr. old hadn't realized she had really brought the house down.  It wasn't until her coach turned her around, saw The Posse standing,  Sarah thought it was just a good program
