Armed Robberies
Two nights ago Alicia Sacramone was in medaling position when she was knocked out of her bronzed moment by a routine that included an unfortunate fall. Despite feeling like the most experienced of judges, I let it go as I assumed I was missing something technical. That was until Bela Karolyi, fallen gymnastics coach, emotionally ranted to Bob Costas that a robbery had taken place. It wasn't the wine talking after all!
Then last night reared yet another gymnastics tragedy as we watched our little lightening bug, Nastia Luikin, fall victim to the Olympic committee's flawed, fledgling tie-breaker system. Newly implemented this year, the system applies a process of discarding lowest scores given by the various judges in the event of tie. What ever happened to awarding TWO gold medals?!?? Again, a disappointed Karoyli weighed in - not only suggesting the Chinese team's passports were doctored but also arguing the new tie breaker was not in the spirit of the Olympics.
Tonight presents a third chance for more mysteries of Olympic proportions to occur as two Americans will compete for the gold in the balance beam final. I will be there and so will Bela Karolyi and we will be waiting for another armed robbery.

Some Might Call It A Quarter Life Crisis - I Call It A Come Back
There have been some changes of late:
1. I quit my job and then got a new job.
2. I quit my phone and then got a new phone.
3. I joined a bowling team. We won our first match. (Is that what you call one game of bowling? A match?)
All these changes are making me feel a little:
**Don't be alarmed if I try to emotionally eat you**

Geography Pop Quiz!
On my way back from the bar a few weeks ago - I stumbled upon this scene on our corner: A movie shoot!
There were cops supervising the whole fiasco, so I asked one what was going on.
He told me the movie was called something like "little girls" or "power girls"**
And then he said, "uh yeah, its foreign. From one of those, uh, Russian countries."
So I said, "you mean like, Eastern Europe?"
To which he responded, "Uh, Yeah, like that."
**remember, I was on my way back from the bar

2. There is something eerily Dave Matthews about this music video - is anyone else picking that up????

Fancy Face
What a Long Strange Trip Its Been
We went tubing down the Esopus this weekend. It was wierd, then scary, then cold, then sunny and then it was over. Plannie was there, so was gramps, mac, em and the wizard's smoke.
At first there was a lot of, "Plan! What are we doing?!? What have you dragged us into this time?!??" But everyone got the hang of "tubing" pretty fast and before we knew it, we were all Huck Finn on that shit.
Seeing your friends wearing safety equipment is funny.
When I quit my job, I might join the Town Tinker.
