LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!

Well, it’s that time of year - no, not Christmas in July - the summer Olympics are once again upon us.  Most of us will be talking about sporting events and games that we usually don’t converse about on a daily basis. It’s not everyday that I get fired up about our national Hand Ball team. The one line that I love to hear when the Olympics start is; “It is just great to see all the nations of the world come together like this.”  I think that line is such a redirect.  The nations of the world didn’t come to London to sip tea, have a biscuit, and share a hug with one another; they came to dynamite in EVERYTHING!!! Each country in the games has veded and processed it’s athletes so that they may bring the best of them to the arena of competition.  This is truly a great time of year and we all know it goes by way too fast.  Once it’s over…well, can’t wait for the winter Olympics.  BRING ON THE CURLING!!!


This would have been fun! Oh well…..sorry Newt, no lunar colony next year. 
After Newt’s fallout in last Tuesday’s primaries, Gingrich will be calling it quits next week and handing over the reigns of the Republican Party to good old, everyday Joe, “How you doing there neighbor?”, “I AM JUST LIKE YOU!! I PAY TAXES…Well my money does it for me…but that’s besides the point”, Mitt Romney. I think it would have been kinda cool to colonize the moon. Though the idea is totally irrational and I think it would have brought upon an intergalactic civil war between the people of the earth and the moon, but it still would have been cool (note to self, write an intergalactic civil war script. I see a HBO series here.)  The point is, Newt had dreams and now they’re gone…..like dust in the wind and cheap gasoline prices.
