The World Has Been Waiting

I've been under such pressure to update this blog...Sammy Sosa even mentioned it in a postgame press conference...so, just for Sammy, here it is (corkfree).

I'm a temp in a world of temps. I think 40% of the workers here are temps. Well, maybe 30%, but that's no exaggeration. I'm sure someone has done research on this topic...is it more advantageous to hire temps or permanent employees? Let me know what you think...really...i'm interested.

Olympic questions
1. If an event calls for 'athletes' to wear make up (women's gymnastics, synchronized swimming), could it really be a sport?
2. Why do the women beach volleyball players wear what amounts to a bikini and the guys wear shorts and tank tops?

Olympic comments:
1. I find myself rooting for some US athletes and against others. I think the media bias of the USA press adds to that. If a US athlete is hyped by the press, I prefer that they don't live up to the hype. Aren't we all sick of hype.
2. So far, the best part of the Olympics has been the Iraqi men's soccer team. Pay attention, they're 2-0.
3. The young Greek male divers that won a gold was pretty special, too.
4. Also, the shot put is being held in the same place where the ancient greek games were held. It was a great idea by the organizing committee to do an event in the ancient tradition. The spectators will even stand, as there are no stands/bleachers, etc. I'm looking forward to watching the shot put finals tonight. Did i tell you I threw the shot put in jr. high. I was pretty good...only came in second once and that was in the county meet. In high school, softball was the same season as track and field, so I chose softball. But, as we all know, I was built to throw heavy objects through the air.

That's all for now...cheers.
