Hey, you know what I found out about the Olympics?
Edited on Sat Feb-11-06 08:42 AM by Hissyspit
There are actually athletes from OTHER COUNTRIES competing in the games!
And they have parents and friends and dramatic circumstances to overcome and dreams and they work hard and care about people and love what they do just like American athletes.
You could have knocked me over with a feather when I found this out!
