"Gold" with East 17

An incredible day for Sweden in the 2006 Olympic Games in Turin!

Tre Kronor advanced in the hockey league.
The female Curling Team advanced to the final (at least a silver medal!!)
Thobias Fredriksson took bronze in Men's Sprint.

And then the big ones!

Björn Lind took his second gold medal this Olympics in Men's Sprint (he took the first in Men's team sprint)! At last a fairly good looking (for being a)winter sporting Swedish guy! And what a guy… Two gold in one Olympic is very rare (Stenmark, Gunde and a few more) and he surely is the world's best sprinter in Cross-Country Skiing.

Anja Persson! Anja Persson!
Anja Persson! Two bronze medals already and now a gold medal! She has taken medals in 11 out of the 14 Olympic or World Championship contests she has taken part in… I can confess I almost cried when "Pillan" (our former Alpine Skiing queen) gave Anja her medal and "Du Gamla Du Fria" played out…
And she still has the chance for more medals.

This is Sweden's best Olymic Games in ages, and the best part?
The ABSOLUTELY fu*kin' great part is that we STILL are in front of Norway in the medal standings!

Let's take another gold tomorrow Curling-ladies!

Keep readin’.
Tomorrow’s a new day and a new song.
