Who else is watching the olympics?

As a former swimmer I have to say the 400 meter freestyle relay had me screaming at my television. I still can't believe that Jason Lezak the 32 year old "old man" chased down the world record holder from a length behind on the final leg. Simply amazing. Made it even better that we beat the French after all their trash talking Smile

They crushed the world record by over 4 seconds. In fact the top 5 teams all beat the world record.

Hmmm, pdxmkby, I'm speachless;-) I'm a little concerned that you picked that out of the picture.... LOL! I didn't even notice that. I think I was just so excited watching and screaming at 11:50pm last night, that I was looking at their faces, arm muscles and those yummy abs....

Now, MR. Michael who when you see him, never looks in pictures like he has bottoms on because he suits are down so low, doesn't need board shorts as his top covers everything, maybe that will be a new craze in the gorge???? Wetsuit tops hanging down when out of the water so no need for those boardshorts.......
