I swim lots, every Sunday in The Edge, not lately though, it's still chilly, but soon I'll start up again.
The only thing I can do on a skateboard is sit down and roll down a hill. I can roller blade better than anything, cause I ice skate.
I love swimmin' the best though...hmmm smell that chlorine

When my younger became a competitive swimmer it was even better, because his older teammates were fun and good looking. I became a timer, and later a diving judge, partially because the scenery was so good.

Wow thats great! then i guess u can judje my swimming!

We have a lot in common.

I don't know much about swimming in Japan, other than the Olympic athletes.
My favorite Japanese singer loves to swim.

They seem to call freestyle stroke crawl over there.



Q: Who cares what other people think?!?!
A: Japanese people do.

Yeah, I am sure I could.
Swimming and diving are about the only event in the summer olympics I still watch. And I enjoy seeing how close my scoring is to the judges on the diving, though its hindered by only getting whatever the camera shot is. But since the '70 the camera people seem to know more about what they should be framing, so the scores I would give are pretty close to the real ones.

Judging swimming when you aren't poolside is futile. The camera and the water distorts touches too much and other than appreciating the skill of someone's turn or their pacing its all up to electronics anyway. Most competitive swimmers don't foul up their take off, but you can see the psych games and nerves going when they take the blocks, even on a TV screen.


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
