Olympics & supplements

[Ankesh]

So the Olympics is about to begin. We are going to hear about drug scandals.

And a debate about how its dis-motivating when the fastest runner in Olympics is not the fastest runner in the world anymore. And many folks who take supplements can beat Olympic winners - but can't participate in the Olympics.

What is your view on it? Should there be a new Olympic category for folks who take special supplements?

On a similar note: Would you personally take (legal) supplements that make you smarter and stronger?

They can have the "real" Olympics ... followed by the para-Olympics ... followed then by the "juiced, jacked and artificially enhanced Olympics."

Thanks Ankesh,

This little girl's WarmUp Dance Before she runs High Hurdles
to keep her mind off the fact - she could break a leg or pull a muscle
is REFRESHING.

Her "Dance" seems to have gone Viral.

But I hunted down an interview with her and she says she smiles, laughs,
and jumps around to take her mind off THE PRESSURE.

(She was silver in the Youth Games)

And won her heat.

Her competitors seem like SOUR PUSS wood blocks compared to Michelle.

Google Her name or go to YouTube for the entire race - SHE MOWED
the other girls down!

Yikes can she run and jump.

Michelle is just 19

Michelle is just having fun,
But Boy oh boy can she RUN!

Glenn ... I have seen this is the past couple days, and yes, it has gone VIRAL!

This young lady makes you wish to be young again, does it not?

Seriously, though, she seems to take so much joy from competing. It is, pardon the pun, a "beautiful thing."

Thanks, I Agree,

Something Else too.

I noticed Michelle's eyes rarely left the cameras.

Some People LIGHT UP when on camera.

Jack Benny became a different person when he went ON.
Johnny Carson was an UNpleasant Person off-camera. Magical on stage.
(Like clicking a light switch - I've watched vids of him on & off stage)

Sharon Stone Lights up - but is merely a pretty woman off-screen.

Dustin Hoffman literally awakes from Near Death (Boring) and GLOWS on camera.

I think We may see a lot more of Michelle
in front of a Camera - if she doesn't do something really Stupid.

PIZZAZZ. She's got it.

A - In all group or Team photos SHE stands out

B - Gary Halbert worked with a model who looked Lousy in person
but thru the lens was Gorgeous.

C - Dustin Hoffman - during an interview said that Stars have something
inside them that says, "Look at me, Look at me, Look at me."

You've got it or you don't.

Michelle certainly SPARKLES on camera.

I just saw a Huffington Post article - where some goof has put himself
behind Michelle - making funny faces - thru the magic of media fakery.
