<i>"doped up & sold as if she were still healthy"</i>

That sounds a lot like Bain Capital's modus operandi. Coincidence?

Thanks. A comprehensive Olympics results site. What a concept.

And it features Lisa Simpson blowing London. Double win.

EDTI: And, for some reason, the part of my overhead, that would normally display my trivial p for this comment, currently provides a link to the slightly screwed up link you provided in your comment.

You are magical, Lizzie.

That's what Rafalca wants you to think.

Mm, Derrick. You may want to trademark those before you submit them to the IOC.

Haha.

Also, too, aside from the stupid group thing, badminton rocks. When I was a good bit younger and quicker I had the chance to play against a serious (state-level) player, and was quickly exterminated. Now, if we had done a quick response of one-on-one hoop, I'm certain the outcome would have been reversed.

But that's what's cool about sports. Different sports require different talents. And badminton players would make scary gunslingers.

While I was always bollocks at badminton, I was pretty good at air hockey. I love quick reaction games.

They've started the Women's Heptathlon, which has caused me to remember, for yet another Olympics, just how unbelievable Jackie Joyner was.
