You don't have anything to do over the next couple of weeks, do you? Good. Check out all the ways you can obsess on the Olympic Winter Games:
- Watch TV. NBC and related networks will air 418 hours of coverage
- Go to Google. Video of previews, highlights and more.
- Go to gazette.com and check out your local team's coverage. Don't forget The Extra Milo - columnist Milo Bryant's blog from Italy.
- Go to ESPN.com. Click on Olympics and get the day's coverage.
- Get smart on about.com with everything about the Olympics.
- Dial up the iPod. Bob Costas will host a daily audio podcast through iTunes
- Call in. Most cell carriers will offer a mobile version of NBCOlympics.com.
- Text in. Text "Torino" to NBCTV, and you can get ringtones that include Olympic themes, national anthems or athlete playlists, and Olympic-theme wallpaper.
And if that's not enough, why not try a little ski racing yourself? (It involves getting out of the recliner.) Check next week's Out There and then head out to a NASTAR course.
(In case you were wondering, the little creatures pictured here are the official Olympics mascots - "Neve, a gentle, kind and elegant snowball," and "Gliz, a lively, playful ice cube.")
