Olympic Anti-Terrorism

July 19th, 2008

You know, I honestly hadn’t thought a lot about the Olympics until I stumbled upon images of anti-terrorism exercises by Chinese military and police.   I suppose I should also point out (although I believe I mentioned it in an earlier post) I am a huge fan of “Big Picture” news.  It just makes everything more interesting. :-)

The Next Stage

June 8th, 2006

Sports Illustrated has an excellent article on Lance Armstrong. It focuses on life after cycling and the LAF. It is quite informative if you are interested in L.A., and there are even some hilarious quotes from conversations between Lance and Bruyneel.

“There’s snow six kilometers from the top”

“Huh?”

“You cannot pass.”

“How much snow?”

“A lot. From an avalanche.”

“What if I keep going?”

Rock on. ;)

Les Plus Beaux Points

May 5th, 2006

After watching Les Plus Beaux Points” you would have to be crazy to not want to quit your job, move to China (or Korea), and become a professional table tennis rockstar.  49 shots…  Unreal.

Google has all of the Superbowl XL Commercials. They are all quite hilarious, especially the Budweiser, Ameriquest, and Nationwide commercials. :)

STEELERS WIN SUPER BOWL XL

Jerome Bettis

Pittsburgh Steelers win Super Bowl XL!.

It was a brilliant display of football excellence (no matter how much *some* of you complain about the officiating). ;)  It was the perfect way for Jerome Bettis to end his career, especially in his home town of Detroit.  I wonder what I will get with my winnings (after I order my Superbowl XL Jersey).

Sorry Hurst.  Maybe next year. ;)
