Olympic Fun

For the past week I have been completely enthralled with the Olympics.  It is funny, because in the days leading up to the games I was not really all that excited about them.   With the exception of 3 nights of synchronized diving, (Seriously… this should be a 30 second highlight reel, not 3 nights of prime time.) I have been fairly captivated.

Like me, many people have been closely following these Beijing Games.  I will certainly remember the opening ceremony, Michael Phelps and his domination, and I am sure the coming week of games will deliver more momorable moments.

Still one of my favorite Olympic moments was not an actual moment at all, but rather a spoof delivered courtesy of Saturday Night Live.  I remember when this aired.  It cracked me up then, and still does today.  Phil Hartman might just be the most underrated comedian of all time.  Check it out.

Are You Aware? Take the Test

I always thought that I had a decent sense of awareness. That is, until I got this awareness test video from my brother in law, Geoff - an avid cyclist. If you have not seen this, please watch this short video clip where you are asked to count the number of passes made by the basketball team in white uniforms. See how well you do. Geoff, for your sake I hope the people in South Carolina are more aware than I was. Please make sure to wear your helmet. Thanks for sending me this great video.
If you choose to comment, please do not give away the answer.
