shaun way cool white
good lord that shaun white was something last night wasn’t he
oh honeys let me tell you
i have never been a huge fan of the olympics
i get bored watching most sports
but snowboarding?
now that’s something i can sink my teeth into
okay the and only time i tried, my then GF took me to whistler
same place that i’m now watching on the news
and we took a snowboarding lesson
one friggen lesson and they just leave us on top of this mountain and mumble …something like.. see ya
with this one piece of advice thank god
“if you get in trouble just sit down”
so I went three feet, sat down
went five feet, sat down
while people were whizzing by me
i felt like i was hobbling down the center of a freeway
but in the end i reached the bottom of the mountain
with a frozen butt,
drank one beer, ate a plate of nachos
and spent my week in vancouver with the flu
so i have a whole hell-of-a-lotta respect for snowboarders
surfers, skate boarders
anyone who can stand up on these things
but mostly last night
i was thinking
after all those prim and proper ice skaters
except for johnny whats his face..wier?, love him
it was nice to watch a bunch of guys with long hair
who look like they will be smoking doobies soon as the drug tests end
compete in the olympics
i really thought that shaun white
after he already knew he had won the gold
using his victory lap
to show off a new and dangerous stunt
and getting even higher marks
was way classy and cool
you rock man

You forgot to mention his awesome RED CURLS!!
Yes, he was AMAZING to watch! Jaw-dropping, “h0w in the WORLD does he do that?!!!?” Of course, I’ve never even tried a plain ol’ skateboard, so I’ll definitely give you extra “bravery points!” Closest I’ve ever come to winter sports was trying out my mom’s old skates – I tottered a few steps on the ice, promptly found myself sitting down, and, well, that was the end of my skating career…:-)
Say, wouldn’t it have been nice to ship some of the snow you folks have been getting to Vancouver & Whistler, where they really needed it???
