I heard Bolt WRed in the 200 as well. I'm surprised Michael Johnson's record from Atlanta '96 still stood.

Location: Lowry the tailor lived there when boys were boys. In his day he was fond of the gun. He always carried his powder loose in the tail pocket of his coat. He usually had in his mouth a short dudeen; but in an evil moment he put the dudeen, lighted, in the pocket among the powder. Mr. Lowry was an eccentric man.

Geez you obviously haven't seen Stoney move... He's an 80s music Baryshnikov

oh and PPT, you NEED to see the Bolt race if you can... and the ensuing drama afterward, heartbreaks galore... MUST SEE TV (Must be why NBC makes you wait until 10 to see it...)

I just read the story on the official Olympic site. WOW. Shocked You are correct sir.

BTW, how do you get CBC up there? Is it part of the cable package? Or does it come over the air from BC?

Part of the cable package... Probably something to do with proximity to BC or something, but from what I remember we've always had it...

Saw the race. Don't they tell these guys not to step on the line? Bolt was unbelievable...


Oh - and doing the Chicken Dance with Dr. C doesn't count in competitive dancing. Besides, I think there's a substance test. Are you sure you want to be put through that humiliation?
