We're doing our last minute warm ups before the 2010 Olympics start...
How many more days?
Just check my counter....
Now you know where we are this week.
Just remember, you don't have to have two good legs...
Oh by the way this young man is celebrating another Birthday!!
We'll be back shortly and help you celebrate the final countdown!!!!
Going for the Gold has a different meaning for each individual.
For some it's an Olympic victory or medal,
for others, it's living life with ideals, that are measurable and attainable.
"The ideals which have always shone before me and filled
me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty and truth."
~ Albert Einstein
The 2010 Olympic Committee hereby fines you for using the words "warm up" when referring to the upcoming event...and recomments that you consult your thesaurus for other words to use in the future. May we suggest the phrase "gear up" as a starting point? (wink...)

ReplyDeleteI so admire people who do more with a handicap than people with all their limbs.
What should you do? Of course, cancel appointments and ski!!
