Bode won another silver today.

Miller's fourth career Olympic medal makes him the most decorated American Alpine skier in history and came on his daughter's second birthday.

I heard that he did it in four different events. Incredible!

Vonn was on the radio today and she was none too shy about the pecking order of her rooting interests and rivals. Asked if she couldn't win the Gold in an event to pick between Mancuso and her friend on the German team (I think her best friend is on the German team), she picked the German first before saying she would still root for the American team and Mancuso.

I'm not surprised by this--since the German is her best friend. I think most of us would root for our best friend.

What is a parent thinking when they name their kid "Apollo"? I know you want kids with good self-esteem. but do you really want them walking around thinking they are Adonis? What;s next, "Zeus", "Xena the Princess Warrior", "Hercules"
