In the morning news, I wrote “figure skating” when I linked to a story about “ice dancing” and quoted a Canadian columnist who called the sport a “tawdry whore.” Thank god for for Fnarf’s correction:
Figure skating is not ice dancing. Ice dancing is not figure skating. Figure skating is an incredibly difficult, athletic sport; ice dancing is indeed a tawdry whore. Your link is to an article about ice dancing, not figure skating. Ice dancing should be taken out of the Olympics; it’s corrupt and stupid.

Ice dancing: never forget.
