After what seems like a decade of build up, "Wicked" is finally here and will be for the next three weeks. You know what that means, Richmond … VCU students aren't going to be able to find parking for their 7 p.m. classes for the rest of the month. No, it means that all of Richmond is going to be trolling the lower Fan looking for places to eat before the show. (And for parking, so seriously, VCU, go ahead and cancel 7 p.m. classes.

Remember when watching the world’s best cold weather athletes was a regal affair, when we cooed over majestic snow-capped peaks and marveled at subzero feats of endurance? That was before we got mugged by a snowman in the Fan and defrosted our living room last week. It will be interesting to see whether Virginians feel they have more kinship with the Winter Olympics competitors, or if we get the same feeling we have after eating Chinese leftovers for a week straight: Enough is enough.
