Go USA!

I cannot believe I just watched history being made....
Team USA's men swim team just did the unbelievable in the 4x100m freestyle relay.
You guys make us proud!
Nothing is more uplifting, more energetic, more patriotic, than seeing the underdogs from your country do the impossible, right at the last few meters. You could see how red their muscles were from the sheer exertion...but you could not find any happier people than those four young men standing on the edge of the pool.
Well, except for the millions of Americans glued to their TVs.

I'm in it for the volleyball...and you?

I haven't been blogging much (actually, none at all) but nothing has really happened to merit said blogging. But when watching the beach volleyball segment of the Olympics and checking up the results online, something caught my attention...
Dancers? Not just any dancers, but dancers in bikinis. And cheerleaders.
Why?
And I don't mean it in a derogatory way, but with already hot, fit men and women in the tiniest outfits out of the whole Olympic competition, covered in sweat and sand, slapping each other on their posteriors, aren't all eyes already glued to the TV?
I couldn't help but think Keri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor could take down the entire dance and cheerleader squads with one hand tied behind their backs.
Plus, while the men's teams may be spurred to victory by the dancers/cheerleaders, how is it helping the women's teams? Come on, at least give them some eye candy as well. Where's the equality? Of course, I would be less impressed with men out there dancing...what else could the men be doing to encourage the women's teams?

Just a rhetorical question to throw out there...please, feel free to contact the Olympic committees with suggestions.

Shame on Me

What a bad blogger I am! It has been weeks since I've said anything...oops.
Well, I am going to make a whole-hearted effort to be more consistent in the future so long as I have something worth while to say.
Needless to say, that does not mean things have not been going on. I am in a constant battle with Verizon...no need to get into that now or else I'll be too fire up to go to bed and sleep.
But, many good things to come in the future. I will make an earnest effort to stay more positive because it becomes draining being negative.
But do you think it is better to be negative than apathetic? Because you're just a waste of space if you go through life apathetic...what's the use of life if you have a lack of emotions or opinions...about anything? I dislike it when people say they are apathetic about something....I cannot imagine not having some sort of opinion or emotion, whether it's good or bad. That's just being wishy-washy.
Boy, it's been a work-filled week...
Here are some random, up-lifting pictures that I liked
