    Something Jenicra said in the weekly chatting thread inspired this QOTD-

    If you had the skill, talent & dedication to be an Olympic Athlete, which event would you like to do?

    I would want to be either a figure skater, which I am definitely to tall for, or a Springboard Diver.

    Swimmer definately. Oooh, but the gymnasts are neat too. And runners. And divers. And figure skaters. For team sports, softball.

    I'd want to be in one of the events I was actually working on when I was younger ... I took ice skating for about 7 years ... stopped just short of figure skating ... I played softball for 6 years, and wanted badly to play in the olympics (at the time I wasn't necessarily good enough for the olympics, but my goal was for the 2000 ... 4 years after I decided I wanted to play in the olympics, so I may have been good enough!! lol) ... and I also was in gymnastics for a bit so I wouldn't mind doing that as well! The luge also looks fun ... like a big icy slide! lol

    Wow, what a great question! I think I'd want to be a gymnast. Although I can't decide whether I'd want to be a regular gymnast, or a trampoline. I was watching that last week and it looks like so much fun. For winter I think I'd want to be a down-hill skier. Doing the Super G & stuff looks so thrilling!

    Lyria: me too. I never got into the jumping stuff so much, but I ADORE dressage. And my sister is a very talented rider as well - hopes to be riding Rolex in three or four years. She and my mom and I were watching some of the Olympic cross-country last week and my mom was all like, "sheesh, those are easy-peasy!" Yeah, sure mom - from this side of the TV!

    (Sorry to bore all the rest of you with my lousy horsy story.... )
