Ah, no problem, please take all the time you need, Kasey; it's worth waiting for!
ETA: Sashak, I also am liking "Sweet Artem" lol. I watched video of him skating a while ago, and was very favorably impressed. Grigor'yev has certain qualities I have only seen once before, qualities I like a lot. In fact, I have to watch him again to see if I like him as much as I think I do lol. Watching figure skating is like eating ice cream; everyone has their own favorite flavor, but more than one flavor tastes good.
Ah, life is sweet with videos!
what does sweet artem taste? with his new costume i bet he tastes like a classic combination of chocolate and vanilla flavored icecream...deffo my favorite!
and yum yum

K/S won this by more than 15 points. Even if Maksim had landed the jumps, it would have been a tight competition, he lost about 9 points for them on the jumps and another one they lost on the throw and probably one on the sbs-spins...
K/S have a really difficult program, the base value is huge. And they were good (I still would like to see them a bit more fluent - they are fighters par excellence, but some easy-looking elements would do them good I think). But congrats to them, I really adore their skating. And congrats to the bronze winners, they are the future and their personality on ice is already great, they are creative... I am glad they can go to worlds and euros.

No, the last three videos I've tried uploading to youtube have failed. So converting some more of the pairs vids and will try again.
actually while waiting for my sweet artem's vid i created an account on youtube and so i commented on your vid of artem. i'm still watching though. y'know, the connection trouble prevented me from watching the whole program but not to worry i would stay up till i'm done. thanks for the vid and everything. i really appreciate your effort here and on youtube!
