The Silverhorn Winter Olympics

Hey Silverhorners! Surprise! Two posts in one night...we don't often do that, as so much of our time is taken up doing the research so you don't have to, but tonight in honor of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games, I felt it might be kind of nice....in other words, I realize that you are getting bored watching the Olympics and possibly might be surfing the net looking for something entertaining....well keep surfing....there is nothing to see here....LMAO...which means laughing my ass off for those of you who just landed from the planet Xeroxini.....

As you know hosting the Winter Olympic Games does big things for a place, kind of puts it on the world map so to speak, and countries compete to be the one to host the games, because of the residual affects of having all the world's eyes turned in your direction....Of course it is highly competitive, and long before the games are announced, we all try to get our own little corner of the world out there and make a bid to be the place where the games are held.....promotional videos, brochures, advertisements, all go towards getting a location chosen for the winter games....

Well unfortunately we didn't get the nod this year to host the winter olympics, even though we had what we felt was an excellent "venue" which is olympic-speak for "place" to hold the games. Take these hardy female athletes for instance, demonstrating the cross country skiing opportunities....combined with what I believe to be frog spearing, I refer to it as the "bogathalon," something like the "biathalon" without the shooting.....competitors ski a predetermined course, then stop, try to spear a frog before moving on, all racing against the clock of course. It's an exciting, pressure packed competition that is a favorite among spectators, especially those who enjoy a feed of frogs legs smothered in sweet sauce....extra points are added for being sexy....


On the other hand....perhaps we might be better off not to have all the worlds eyes turned in our direction.......4 extra points to the girl in pink for the wardrobe adjustment!
