G'day Everyone.
Well, the finale week has to be here for most people. School starts this week in my area. All the kids are out playing on their last day before they have to get up early am and heading back to classes and whine "I HATE SCHOOL" stuff.
Gallaudet is about to be in FULL SWING already. May it be a good school year for everyone.
The Olympics is coming to an end in China. The International Olympic Committee (IOC)'s embarrassment is coming to an end and hopefully, will never repeat such a decision again like this. But the Olympics should have promoted peace. It didn't. Russia invaded the nation of Georgia yet, they have "withdrawn" in a way. This type of invasion should not have happened. I read on a few posts in other sites that have taken up the call for an END to the OLYMPICS. I don't blame them. Yet, in 4 years, there will be the Olympics in MERRY OLDE ENGLAND. Now that's something that's going to be jolly good. At least the British will put on a better show than China has done.
Meanwhile, in the Little League World Series (LLWS): yesterday, there was a FIGHT for the final two spots. The winners are: Mexico punched Japan 5-4. Hawaii made good use of the tropical storm Fay curse on Louisiana and win 7-5.
Today's LLWS title fight: Mexico vs Hawaii. I hope that Hawaii will win today and SURF IT UP!
The action begins at 3:30pm on ESPN and ABC SPORTS and taking place in the Lamade Stadium.
In the consolation game the wet and soggy Louisiana will face the battered Japan for the 3rd place win. It will be at HIGH NOON in the Volunteer Stadium and on ESPN. (by the time you read this.. run to your TV to watch)
You ask: Will the Sherlock be there? Unfortunately, no. I'm not interested and I'm going to be heading up to Sullivan county Fair as it's the last day there and go for a swim in the World's end Park river with a friend. However, I'm tired of hearing the blasted GoodYear Blimp that has been a drone in the area. You can piratically hear the engines so loud, you'd wish it was going else where (which it won't be flying out of the area until Monday morning to Akron, Ohio.)!!
So whatever you do on your last Summer day of vacation before school starts, please enjoy your day. After all, it's a Fun day.
Semper FI.

The only two country I don't trust to host the Olympics are China and Russia. When they host the Olympics, they find a way to cheat to get more Gold Medals than other country. China did so in gymastics. I think there are perhaps two or three girls underage. When one said she was 16 years old, I have never seen that she would jump on to the coach like a little girl. So China got more Gold than other Countries yet the United States won the most medals. Honesty is the best policy. I would rather fire the IOC and replace them with new people. I would rather see the olympics game play more cleaner and honestly. Shame on China and same on IOC. I hope the next one in 2012 is better.
I want to add one more thing to my post. Honestly, I wish there was a physical test or something that requires the athletics to take to show their mature and true age. Those chinese gymastics girls, at least two or three of them does not even look like they are actually 16 years old. Anyhow, now that the olympics is over with, I know the IOC does a better job to prove ages before the athletics play in future olympics.
