Never a DULL Moment.......

Don't you just love the headlines from London!

The heart tuggers:


DOUBLE AMPUTEE MAKES SEMIFINALS - Oscar Pistorius ... or by the nickname Blade Runner .... lost both legs as a child but has always been an athlete.  Is it a little too "6 Million Dollar Man" and an unfair advantage ? ..... the future will tell.

QATAR'S FIRST EVER FEMALE OLYMPIC ATHLETE PULLS HAMSTRING AT STARTING BLOCK - It is a religious thing that females are/were not permitted to compete in sports in Qatar. What changed their minds? Qatar wants to host the 2024 Olympics. Olympic committee said "not a chance in hell, with your antiquated views on the place of women in your society" ...... okay roughly what they said.  SO, .... suddenly ..... Qatar is allowing women in sports  .... hmmmm may be it wasn't done for such "religious " reasons after all!!!




The Things I didn't need to know:

ST. KITTS/NEVIS ATHLETE SENT HOME - don't shed any tears for this moron ..... He couldn't follow the simple rules of his team officials: NO ONE IS TO LEAVE THE ATHLETE VILLAGE PERIOD. Simple enough you would think, except  for this arrogant bastard left anyways. NOT for a few minutes, not for a few hours .... DAYS .... DAYS!!!!! Where was he? In a London hotel 'GITTIN' SOME' from his wife ..... SSSSSERIOUSLY ???? I don't feel sorry for you. You were there probably on your Country's dime, expected to medal in a once in lifetime international stage and you can't keep it in your pants for 2 weeks ???? GO HOME .... you are now officially a loser on the international stage ..... AND I've been to Nevis/ ST Kitts it  ain't all that ..... now you have to stay there and git all you want 'cause now you have the time.

RYAN LOCHTE PEES IN POOL - Sigh ..... AND tell me which one of them hasn't that might be the bigger news .... You wait 4 years to write reports from the Summer Olympics. This is your lead story? .... good luck on your writing career !

I am not a prudey girl but, keep it somewhat clean. Of course, stay on topic unless, "DUH", it is an OPEN post. No threats or disparaging remarks to those that disagree with you. Silly and redundant comments going to a place where the post was not intended will be deleted. Good old "Common Sense" is always welcome! If you are having trouble defining Common Sense then maybe this is not the place for YOU!
