  Two Level Jump in Two Days - Congrats to Team USA Beach Volleyball

  Wow! I have never, ever (even when it was easy to move up levels) jumped up two whole levels in such a short period. On the 19th, I was on Level 29 and today I am up to Level 31 (51%). I like my new icon - "Blues Brother." I do not even know what the Level 30 icon was. I hope it was not something cool, unlike that Volgar the Enforcer icon.

  Congratulations also to the Women's Team USA Beach Volleyball squad on pulling home the gold!

  Here's to the USA beating out China in the medal race.

  P.S. I refuse to watch any sport where judging is involved. I am sick of the home field advantage.

  New Level - Level 29 (Volgar the Enforcer); Michael Phelps

  It's official - Michael Phelps is now the most prolific Olympic athlete ever. He surpassed Mark Spitz's record of winning 7 gold medals during the 1972 Olympics. Just this past weekend, Phelps won a total of 8 gold medals in Bejing. Congratulations.

  I have also jumped up to Level 29 - Volgar the Enforcer. I have no idea who this is, so I'm going to shoot to get bumped up to Level 30 as quickly as possible.

  2008 Bejing Olympics Thus Far - Phelps is Golden

  I have to say that I have been enjoying the 2008 Bejing Olympics so far. I've tried to catch it every evening from 8pm until midnight. My schedule has finally allowed me time to relax and watch it. It happens every fourth summer -- I wish I was a swimmer. I'd trade my vocals and musical talent for the ability to swim like a fish.

  Case in point -- who wouldn't want to be Michael Phelps right now? What does it feel like to be the absolute best of the best (in the entire world) in your skill area?

  Anyhow, I'm most excited to see Phelps win 8 gold medals, the "Redeem Team" finally win the gold again and Walsh/May take home the gold again.
