Nasty weather in Beijing yesterday interfered with with a lot of the outdoor events. And we had lots of prelims and semifinals. Boring.

We had some of the gymnastics gala last night which was a lot of fun (just not enough of it). The top male Chinese gymnast whose name i can never remember was so serious throughout the competition but last night he got to cut loose and be silly. He hopped up on the pommel horse and acted like he was riding a real horse. *g* Then he got down and was petting it and leaning his head down towards it and it apparently escaped the NBC announcers, but my first thought was “The pommel horse whisperer!” LOL!

Well, that Bigfoot carcass those guys in Georgia found turned out to be a rubber gorilla suit! Did they not think people would figure that out? LOL!

In TV news, William Petersen’s replacement on CSI has been announced. None other than Laurence Fishburne!

And this boggles my mind. Jennifer Lopez is training for a triathlon and she can’t understand why Michael Phelps is getting all this attention. Uh, maybe because he’s 100 times more of an athlete than you’ll ever be, you silly woman? Ego, much? Geez. I’ve never been a fan of hers and this just reinforces my opinion.
