I had every intention of posting my doings from the previous weekend, but was out sick for two days (due to my own stupidity…more on that later) and lost power a couple of times (frickin’ rainstorms!). Therefore, you’ll get a double whopper of a weekend wrap-up that will probably end up being a two-parter.
Next week.
Sorry. I know you really wanted the scoop.
So, what do you think of these Olympics? I’m lovin’ these stories that keep popping up. Let’s see, there was:
~ Questionable age of some of the female Chinese gymnasts. Even coach Bela Karolyi verbally mentioned it a couple of times. What do you all think?
~ Michael Phelps’ 12,000 calorie diet. Holy kamoly!
~ the whole temper tantrum fit regarding this Swedish wrestler dude. You want some cheese with that whine? I think maybe he’s been hangin’ with Surya Bonaly (any die-hard ice skating fan out there will know what I’m talking about).
But I’m really liking these little factoid articles, too, like:
~ Why do divers always shower? Seriously. I really wanted to know that.
~ and what was that black stuff on volleyball player Kerri Walsh ’s shoulder? I kept thinking it was a really cool and vivid tattoo. But the close-up shots made it seem like it was some kind of tape.
I’m glad that Fourth-Place Medal Sports blog on Yahoo is answering the mysterious questions.

The man is a machine, no wonder he eats so much!
