Dr Spock? I had no idea...what an underachiever. LOL. Let's see, skating alone can claim two women olympians who were doctors. There must be some male skaters who went this route.

^ Olympia I think we have a thing with movies! I watched Chariots of Fire just on Sunday!It came with the Sunday newspaper -probably in the ocassion of London 2012-and I was curious and watched it. Then I read their stories on internet!I did not know the story and I was really excited. I dont know why it is called Chariots of Fire though, our title is Roads of fire. Amazing film. My fav part was when they run around the yard of school when the time was 12.

Chariots of Fire is a really amazing film, I watched long time ago. The soundtrack is very beautiful and famous. I can't wait London! I deeply admire the Olympic heros, like Phelps, Spitz, Usain Bolt, Nadia Comaneci etc.

Well we will have a folder so people can post alerts in their time zones. I wonder what the Chinese team will look like this year. It seems like yesterday Nastia was the one. I know little, so I look forward to the folder. Aunt Joyce covers all thing gymnastics in a funny way. I remember has a wee little girl, the amazing Soviet Olga Korbut with her little pigtails. I hope our USA team is strong. Why 5 instead of 7, tho?

Korbut was actually supposed to take a 10.0 for her event final in uneven bars but judges didnt this time, if they had done she would have been the first with the perfect ten before Comaneci.

she is the luckiest girl...i can see Torvill and Dean as they are uber famous Brit olympians...

Torvill & Dean are much, much more than just Olympians, they are Olympic champions.
