The winter Paralympics have begun

 The opening ceremonies were this morning. I missed them. From what Devin Heroux said they were outstanding.  Lots of fireworks, the lighting of the cauldron, the speeches, and the Paralympic oaths. The disappointment was part of Andrew Parsons speech "cut out." IPC and OBS said the mic was working fine. They've now asked for an investigation into Chinese tv.  CCTV censored part of Parsons speech about what's going on in Ukraine.  Anyways, first day starts tonight. 9 days of fun.
