You can go to NBCdotcom and look over the schedule of events, then even have them e-mail you a reminder before your chosen event is aired.

I heard and interview with Bella Karoli (?) retired gym. coach. He said the passports are used to prove the ages, but the government is in charge of the passports. So who knows?

I'm really enjoying the bodies. These are folks from all around the world who are fit ... and how!

One that stands out for me is Nila Hakedal (Norwegian beach volleyball). Beautiful!
Did you see the range of motion the swimmers have in their shoulders?!

BTW, I have been exercising better these last few days ;) anyone else?

Those little Chinese girls are 16. And on a completely related note, I'm 6'2" in stocking feet and 110 lbs.

(Hey - I think I just found an upside to the whole mess!)

What's insulting to me is that the Chinese government assumes we're all too dumb to see they're trying to pull the wool over our eyes. And the ridiculous thing is that they think that by doing such awful things to appear perfect to the world (and the world seeing through it all), they're showing their true colors brighter than ever before! China is a stunningly beautiful country that is dripping with culture, history and awesome take-out! If they'd just relax and be themselves, they'd naturally come by the image they're trying to portray, but by forcing perfection, they're showing themselves to be truly ugly. Very sad.

ahem...

Aussie Aussie Aussie! Oi! Oi! Oi!

:D

I really don't know how you can make that statement. You don't know what age they are.

I haven't been watching the Olympics this time around. I usually love Summer Olympics but this time the media has really soured the experience for me.

It was a joke. You trimmed the punchline.

Phelps 100 fly: O. M. G.

I thought he was beat for sure! I had to watch those replays I don't know how many times and I still wasn't convinced! The officials had to slow them down to 1/10,000th of a second to confirm that he touched the wall first! GO MICHAEL! YEAH!!!!

I heard them mention that theres a touchpad in the pool..and thats how they figured out that he won.

Sure, I knew about that, they've had that for years (it can be pretty hard to make out just with the naked eye in the heat of a close race)

Michael Phelps Is Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
