Feeling Turin's Aura One Last Time

The Olympics are over, and it's time for all of us to put those lowcut spangled TV-watching outfits away for another four years. But before you do, check out the Washington Post's hilarious awards for Olympic Oddities, which include "Venues That Sound Delicious" (Cesana Pariol, anyone?) as well as some good Johnny Weir quotes:

Gold: "I never felt comfortable in this building. I didn't feel my inner peace, I didn't feel my aura. Inside I was black" (after finishing a disappointing fifth in men's figure skating).
Silver: "I could very likely wake up and feel horrible, like Nick Nolte's mug shot" (before skating his long program).
Bronze: "I dragged myself out of bed, had my Starbucks, put on my self-tanner and went from there" (after winning the national title last month).
