all-around....

ok, so i stayed up til 1:30 am watching the americans go 1-2 in the women's gymnastic competition.....the performances were stellar....just lovely.....and even in my sleep-deprived stupor i recall the effort to stay awake worth my time.....especially given that i have watched women's gymnastics faithfully since 1972 when olga korbut dazzled the world with her backflip from the uneven bars.....wow......still gives me pause to consider just how much skill and nerve these tricks require.....
