More Medals

Wednesday, August 20, 2008 23:19

Our American women's beach volleyball team won the gold medal tonight.  I believe the men's final is on Friday.  Things are looking good for the American basketball team too as they dominated one of the better teams today.  Nothing much happened today.  I rented a few movies my mom hasn't ...

Bowling Again

Tuesday, August 19, 2008 23:32

This morning, I got the call to return to our bowling team.  Last year, we won first place and we have the same team back minus an injury.  We should be fine.  After not having bowled for about 4 months, I had no idea of what the outcome of my ...

Monday, August 18, 2008 22:06

Not too shabby for a Monday.  The grass is getting near cutting time again.  At least gas has gone down a bit so it's not as expensive to do the job.  The olympics have continued, nothing compelling enough to talk about other than more tape delayed activities.  About the only ...

Now What?

Sunday, August 17, 2008 23:13

After having watched a LOT of olympic coverage during the first week, and after Phelps completed his 8 for 8, I've lost a lot of interest in the games.  Not because of the sports being played, but because of the coverage itself.  I absolutely detest, hate, despise...  tape delayed coverage ...

7th Medal

Friday, August 15, 2008 22:35

Phelps won his 7th gold medal tonight.  Simply amazing.  I thought the relay final he was in earlier this week was the best race I've ever seen.  Well, tonight's was better.  He came out a winner by .01 second.  Unbelievable.  Tomorrow is his last race and if the team relay ...

Yet Another

Phelps won his 6th gold medal tonight and swam his way into another individual final which will be held tomorrow night.  There just isn't any way to properly describe his ability and focus.  The women's individual all around gymnastic competition was also tonight and the Americans took both the gold ...
