Injured...Injured Bad


Not all of us braved the class 3 rapids without retribution . My fearless father-in-law got a nasty bruise after he was violently tossed from the raft during a free fall over a 200ft waterfall. It was either a waterfall or he jumped out in a mild mannered stream. I can't remember exactly. At any rate, he wasn't injured as bad as the guy in this story.

If you could only watch TV from one major network for the rest of your life, which one would you choose?

Olympics

100 meters- In 1999 Maurice Green set the record at 9.79. It lasted for 6 six years until 2005. In the last 3 years the record has been broken 6 times. Bolt's record might have lasted another 6 years if he hadn't moonwalked across the finish line.

Hot Sports Opinion-Aside from Tiger Woods, Bolt's victory was the most amazing thing I've seen in sports in the last decade. All the Phelps stuff is great, but the difference is that it looked like Phelps was trying.

Oldest dude-At the 1920 Olympics in Antwerp, Swedish shooter Oscar Swahn collected a silver medal in the team double-shot running deer competition, becoming at age 72 the oldest Olympic medalist ever.

Horse talk- How does my horse get to China? Boeing 747, pressurized cargo bin, in a full metal crate. The reasons the equestrian events are not being held in Beijing is because horses are particularly prone to respiratory illnesses and Beijing could not guarantee a disease-free zone.

Underneath This Smile


Just got back from Colorado and my tv receiver is toast. (Note to self: Stop making fun of people who call power strips, surge protectors). My computer contacted a deadly virus and appears terminal, and my dog has worms. In the infinite lyrical wisdom of Hilary Duff, "Underneath this smile my world is slowly caving in".

Super Nachos

I ordered some Super Nachos at the Rangers game. There are two main
criteria to eat an entire order.

1st- You need to be extremely hungry.
2nd- On a scale of 1-10, you can't care about your health more than a 6.

Numa Numa

A couple of people sent me this video of Matt Harding last week. After checking out Matt's bio, I read that he was one of the Vh1's 40 greatest Internet celebrities. After combing through the list I realized I had never heard of their #1 top dog -the numa numa kid. If you can turn it off after watching at least the first 18 seconds I would consider you an expert in time management.
