Skateboarding in the Olympics! What’s next? Sailing?
Over 50? That’s still kids to me
There is apparently a new rule in the skateboarding competition everyone gets a gold medal for just getting to Japan. If your flight was cancelled due to westher you can apply for a snowflake exception tomorrow
Okay, that’s enough meanness for today. Hey, a CUMULUS!!! |
I know someone on the Olympic Sailing committee. He was an olympic contender 10 or so years ago.

I did a summer in a Britton Chance’s lab in the 1970s and sailed with him. That guy could find wind in a freezer. _________________ .ssS! |

Olympic skateboarding. Stupid.
There are so many other "sports" in the summer games that are absolutely ridiculous. _________________ Your Vanagon sucks, Stop waving at me.

I’ll confess I’m a ..
How fast, how far, how high, how many goals
… kind of sports guy when it comes to medals.
Still, there is incredible talent in the “ artistic points” category of sport that is still enjoyable to watch.
