More Olympics Raves!!

So, now that the first full day of competitions is behind us, what do we have to look forward to today? Well, Shawn Johnson will be making her Olympic debut this afternoon/evening (depending on where you live) and Michael Phelps will be participating in another swimming event in the afternoon/evening as well.

If you're a Michael Phelps fanatic, you can send him good old snail mail at:

Michael Phelps

P.O. Box 1734

Olney, MD 20830-1734

If you want his autograph, include a self-addressed stamped envelope.

The US mens' basketball team plays today against China. Well, they played against China now, and won. Yay! And you know what is really just cool, and awesome put together? That although these two countries are fighting, the athletes from these countries, Russia and Georgia, still embrace and celebrate together their medals. If you want to take a look at the hug, here's the URL: http://www.nbcolympics.com/shooting/news/newsid=191219.html#russia+georgia+medalists+embrace+despite+conflict?GT1=39003

so, I hope that you're enjoying the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics. And, wherever you are, have a good rest of the weekend!
