Song of the Day: "The Reason" by Hoobastank

The fangirls will always provide... like manna to the Hebrews wandering in the desert. That's what i feel like right now. A starving Hebrew. So i guess i could recap on what's been happening in the real world other than the Olympics. Um... yeah. Like anyone's interested in that. Hahaha. But i promise that if you listen to my shpeel, i'll have a photo reward for you at the end, mmmmmmkay? So yesterday i went shopping with Alice. She bought this Ramones t-shirt, and it almost made me cry... because it reminded of Michael Phelps. HAHAHAHA. Just kidding. I didn't cry. "Too bad he doesn't listen to the Ramones," said Alice. "He's a fricking swimmer thug... POSER!" Yeah, anyway. She's still bitter and angry about that. Well, Alice, maybe you should put that on his iPod that his crazy fangirls are sending him. "So, what does Michael think of his new sex symbol status?" "HAHAHAHAHAHA... It's definitely different." Anyways... i'm trying to talk about normal things here and once again i diverge. HAve to stop thinking about Michael Phelps... i'm becoming as obsessive as that creepy girl in Swim Fan... which luckily i didn't see! :D I bought some DVDs. Everyone go to Target. It's the shit. Because i got "Moulin Rouge" on DVD for $7.50. WHUT WHUT?! Um... i'm running out of things to talk about. SURPRISINGLY i talked to Chris yesterday... my wittle bass clarinet buddy. Band camp started... poor kids. :/ I feel bad for them. I don't start school until the 25th of September, and they're already slaving away in the sun for a couple of hours a day listening to Die Kraftler bark out orders. *Sigh* I laugh and cry at the same time. I kind of miss being a band geek. I guess i'm an Olympics geek. Erica is out for the week, so she didn't have to see Paul Hamm getting booed. She would've cried. For reals. *hits head on desk* I need Michael Phelps. I need my water babies... WELL... since i can only keep my hands off of the Olympics for about five seconds (or less than a paragraph...) HERE YA GO!

Scenes from Yesterday's Olympics:

Jeremy Wariner... what a beast! Not a beast in the sense of the word that Thorpe is a beast. More in the sense of the word where Michael Phelps is a beast (SEXY BEAST!) He looks really cool with his sunglasses on, less cool with them off. Whenever they interview him, he's always breathing heavily right after a race so you can never understand what he's saying. Kind of reminds me of Malcolm's handicapped friend in "Malcolm in the Middle".


They call him "Sexy Alexei" for a reason. Cuz he's hot. "Oh my God, when you search for him on Google they have all these gay porn sites." Hey. After spending a week with a bunch of swimmers, porn doesn't phase me anymore. Someone told me that all those pictures of Michael Phelps is kind of like porn... and, well, they're right. But back to Alexei Nemov... whom we sometimes refer to now as "Nemo" since it's cuter than "Sexy Alexei". Nemo's quite a sweetheart, i think. When the crowd was booing his score, he smiled for a little while before getting throughly embarassed, and went as far as to signal the crowd to quiet down so Paul Hamm could do his routine. Sweet guy. If he doesn't show up next Olympics, i'll miss him

For the Swim Fans
I guess i don't have too much stuff for you today. Pictures are becoming scarcer and scarcer. I mean... new pictures. Old pics are still good, but we want some fresh ones. So... i've got a handful of Michael's but more of other swimmers that are pretty hot and don't swim for the US. Nothing hotter than a foreign guy... except a foreign guy who swims! :)

Markus Rogan: Austria


:) Still... cuz he's a CUTIE PATOOTIE. I just like how he's always biting on something... except in that second picture. Heh heh heh. Piersol and Rogan are so cute. They're like... Beauty and the Beast only both hot. Even the really really ridiculously good-looking Pieter van den Hoogenband cannot make up for Thorpe's evilly big nose.

Ryk Neethling: South Africa

Ryk Neethling trians in the same place Amanda Beard does, so they're sort of going out, i think. Like i said, he's really hot, right? *Tsss*


Again... but this time not looking at the camera. In the above picture they look intense... like models that are naked... OH! ABERCROMBIE MODELS. It never ceases to amaze me how A&F is supposed to be selling clothes but their models are never wearing any. Go figure.

Pieter van den Hoogenband: Netherlands


Isabel says i should stop lusting. Hahahaha... maybe she's right. If Hoogie weren't so hot...


Jeez... i can't see what that piece of cloth is. IT's probably a swimcap... but then again we can always pretend that's his speedo he's waving around. "Look at me! I'm totally naked!" *takes out binoculars* Why, hello, there...

For those who need their daily dosage of Phelps:

Bigger and badder than ever. I'm in love with that tattoo...


Reading his towel... or at least that's what it looks like. :) How cute. Minar says he looks dorky in street clothes. I say he just looks dorky in clothes period. BRING ON THE NAKED! ;)


Amanda Beard, Michael Phelps, Jenny Thompson, and Natalie Coughlin. I tried not to be jealous and i succeeded. Go me. Just think about it this way. Amanda already has hot Ryk Neethling. Jenny is too old... unless she wants an Ashton/Demi thing going on. And Natalie is tired of us comparing her to what's-his-name all the time. So, there. No need to be jealous at all.


Because i love L33T Klete. he's my hero. :)


And just because. I have a lot of "just because" pictures of Michael Phelps, don't i?
