Becca's probably going to complain cause I haven't logged in a while and now I have several things to post, but that's just how my free time goes and how my ideas come. Oh and also I've been entirely too involved in myspace...and going to back off of that a bit. The site takes TOO long to navigate thru and do anything w/ my slow @$$ computer.
Last night was basically the first I've caught of the Olympics. Josh (guy I work w/) is in love w/ anything that involves girls that look like they are prepubescent (this would include figure skating, X-country runners, and over all underage athletes) and he likes changing lyrics to songs and making up poems so he gets some of us involved. This time the theme was obviously the winter games and below are what we've come up w/ so far...remember kids it's quantity not quality (mine are at the end):
The Winter Olympics (So Many Hotties)
By Josh Reinke
Sadly, the Winter Olympics come only once every four years.
It’s so exciting to watch the competitions, hotties and cheers.
The Olympics aren’t just about fast skiers and skaters that do twirls.
It’s also about gorgeous women and super-cute girls.
What would the games be without her big blue eyes and amazing hair?
She’s tough, she’s beautiful and her skills on a snowboard are rare.
If she has a boyfriend, I’ll admit I’m quite jealous.
By now I’m sure y’all know I’m talkin’ ‘bout Lindsey Jacobellis.
The next Olympian I’ll mention is as flexible as can be.
Much like Shaun White I wish she’d go out with me.
With those beautiful brown eyes my love for her is growin’.
Yup, you got it…I’m talkin’ ‘bout the hottie, Ms. Sasha* Cohen.
So far this poem makes it seem the U.S. is the only team with beauties
But, Canada and Russia and Norway all have so many cuties!
With her amazing smile, sparkly eyes, and cute victory dance the one I’ll dream about tonight
Is none other than the talented and beautiful snowboarder from Australia named Torah Bright.
There are cuties in snowboarding, skiing and skating too.
Kara Traa, Gretchen Bleiler, Jillian Vogtli…I love you!
All these hot women in just one Olympics may seem suspicious.
Belbin, Meier, Savchenko and Kostner are all sooooo delicious!
* Sasha’s real name is Alexandra.

When watching the winter olympics, you'll notice that something's not there,
Look for a man of significant color, you won't find one anywhere.
I'm all for America, the red, white, and blue; I want us to win the gold,
But you won't find me in Torino this year because brothas just don't do cold.
Take for example the sport of ski jumping where you hit a ramp and then fall,
The only jumping that I wanna do involves a rim and a ball.
I'm sure that the view is fantastic and there's lots of beautiful sights,
But you won't get me on that mountaintop because brothas just don't do heights.
And what's the deal with figure skating, these dudes look like 80s singers,
The only ice I'm down with is around my neck and on my fingers.
I know these guys are athletes, and I don't mean to be hating,
But every man in his right mind knows that brothas just don't do skating.
Hockey's a game dominated by white boys sporting their mullets,
This just ain't my thing, I think I'd rather be in Compton running from bullets.
These dudes' grills is more jacked up than freakin' Obie Trice,
You won't catch me in a pair of skates because brothas just don't do ice.
Now snowboarding's different, these dudes are ok, I kinda like their style,
I wouldn't mind sitting around and blazing with them for a while.
But even though Shaun White has a killer attempt at a 'fro,
You won't find a board strapped to my feet because brothas just don't do snow.
I've only touched on a couple of sports, there are others like bobsled and curling,
But the thought of the snow and ice and wind kinda makes me feel like hurling.
When the time comes again for the summer olympics, you'll find me front and center,
But as for now I think I'll pass because brothas just don't do winter.

Ode to Alexandra
By Hillary Croxton
all week all i've heard, all josh has said
is man i can't get this girl out of my head
her twirls and her spins and geez her great jumps
even though the poor girl has had some bad slumps
her smile and her eyes they blow me away
boy how i wish i could just tell her "hey!"
and all along i have to admit
i really didn't see what made her the sh!+
but after last night there is no denying
as i was watching her bow, bend and flying
she is the best thing i've seen in a while
in fact i might add her to my heroes compiled
she said girls should be strong, fierce and bold
and after last night she's sure to win gold!

Too White to Say 'Brotha'
By Hillary Croxton
though blume & i have never met
it's quite apparent, i'll even make bets
these winter games are just not his bag
it's even been heard that they make him gag
and although there is few found in the crowd
i did spot a brother that might make him proud
yes that silver was awarded to him with drama
but think of the tears of joy that came from his mama
push aside the cold and shivers those points are moot
and give shani davis a big deserving salute
