Amazingly, Texas is pretty limited in winter sports activities.

Hmmm something is going on here.....Oh.... it seems there is some dispute over video taping of some sort......Frazz is really upset now..........wait a minute......whats he go there.......is it? Can it be?....Frazz has just unleashed his hidden weiner dog from his mini bag, while quoting shakespeares "Let slip the dogs the war!!" GG

While I agree with the above thats not my intent. There are many summer events that normal people participate in. I bike, the wife and kids run and play tennis. I box, belly flop into the pool etc. etc.

Winter sports. Absent yankees skating on ponds or such aint nobody does this as a pastime unless they are rich to being with. Aint nobody from the Fort Apache going skiing.


I know plenty of middle class people that go skiing, snowboarding, skating, and curling. The only truly exclusive sports in the winter games are luge, bobsled, and skeleton.

Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.

China's rise up the Summer Olympics very closely ties to their economic ascent



Also, that China has taken upon itself the idea that it needs to dominate ALL of the nowhere-near-"important" events... Racewalking? Please, let's talk when China wins a gold in the 100m Dash

Alex Rodriguez may want to be contacted by the Glorious Leaders of the People's Most Glorious Republic of China for those medications
