Chris Klug is back in pursuit of Olympic Gold after receiving a life saving liver transplant that kept him out of the 2006 games. Congratulations and good luck Chris!
Chris and I share a common bond. I dontaed a portion of my liver to my brother, Jim the same month and at the same hospital where Chris recieved his transplant. Here we are sharing a moment after the 2nd annual Aspen Summit for life race on Aspen Mountain.

2010 Olympic Games

SO, I've had the 2010 Olympics schedule printed and on the wall for more than a year now. With venues in two of my favorite locales, Vancouver and Whistler, this is sure to be a beautiful and memorable Games and I WANT TO GO!
With a flip of the calendar page to October today, I realized that Phase 1 of Olympic ticketing begins this Friday, 10/3!
Phase 1 is the BEST chance to get tickets, but you need to put some thought into your itinerary and requests. A couple of planning tips I've tried to keep in mind (I'm on ticket request matrix v.5 now) is to allow for travel time between venues in Vancouver/Richmond, Grouse Mountain and Whistler & to prioritize those events that I *really* want to see since there is a maximum request of 48 tickets-across all events.
The ticketing timeline looks like this:

• Friday, October 3 - Friday, November 7, 2008: During this time frame, ticket requests can be submitted at www.cosport.com.
• Mid-December: Ticket Allocation, Confirmations sent and Payments processing

Let us know what your request matrix looks like--I'm still tweaking mine. ;o)
