I just wanna say (edit)

Mom taught me to be, someone recently told me, humble and modest.

I did really well in Japan; I was not the Ugly foreigner; I don’t really fit well here.

So, the Olympics reports, the tally of how many medals the US has, are kind of offensive to me.

You can’t really tell here, since I’m Telling you, but in real life, I am modest and humble, and don’t "toot my own horn" much.

Having a visitor stay over a couple of days this week was fun,but I didn’t get to finish any of my stories. That’s one thing I really like about OD – I get to Finish my stories.

When I get to writing them down. I need to keep a note book, I guess, because this keyboard has this magical process of erasing my thoughts.

Anyway, I just wanted to say that "look how many medals we’ve got!" kinda bothers me – I mean, those are The Best athletes in The World, and that’s enough, don’t you think?

btw it is the hottest day in a thousand days here.

I do like to Watch the Olympics. The things that humans can do with their bodies – and with their horses bodies – are amazing and wonderful to see.

I admire the human form; sports contests usually bring good views of bodies in motion.

These are The Best Athletes in The World.

It’s just that the medal count seem chauvinistic and a little Kindergarten in tone sometimes.
