It only happens once every 4 years.....

I am, of course, talking about the Olympics. Ok, so really they are every 2 years now. But I remember a time when it was every 4. Summer and Winter games all in one gigantic year of competition. I prefer it that way. But then again, my opinion means pretty much nothing.

I love, love, LOVE the Olympics. I love almost everything about them (I don't love that we use professional basketball players). I love what these games represent. The spirit of world wide competition for glory and honor. Yes, I know, our athletes who win--especially our gold winners--- win glory, honor..... and cash. But these are the best athletes of our nation (except for the basketball players). The BEST! Representing the U.S. of A!!! I love the Olympics. Sometimes I wish I had been an athlete rather than a band geek. Then.......ah....who am I kiddin'?!?!?! No WAY I could have done that!

I love the Olympics! Watch! Cheer! Be proud!
