Bloggers are a strange sort of person. They reach out and touch people they may never meet in person. They crave attention in the form of comments and never seem to be at a loss for words.

Round two of the Blogger Olympics will go to the most productive bloggers. Those who post frequently as compared to the number of days they have been blogging will be taking home gold tonight.

This reporter interviewed a number of Blogging Olympic hopefuls.

Running2ks is a favorite for taking home the gold tonight. She is a mommy bloggist so has an endless source of stories. When asked how she is dealing with "favorite status" she responded, " I consider myself a player and a cheeleader, primarily. If a win happens, I will have grace and dignity and snazzy gold 'round my neck. But I don't think in terms of winning and losing. Call me an athletic supporter ;)" What a girl!

Veronika is a new comer to blogging and could be a surprising contender. When asked , " Do you have any particular tricks with a high degree of difficulty that you are planning to perform." She responded, " I’ve been practicing my toe typing and my trainer tells me that I’m improving every day! I’ll give you a sample of me typing with my toes here: Kd03 33r F’::dif c.x knh’z--&*(pmf’ " It should be an interesting Olympics!

Another new hopeful is Killired. When asked if she had any particular ritual that she preforms to assure top preformance this was her answer. "Oh yes I do, Once my hands are warmed up, I like to sing and play “Where is Thumbkin”… it’s a child’s song that uses your fingers and requires great skill at knowing exactly when to use each finger in the song. Once I complete the ritual, it’s on… they all better watch out for me."

Carol, is a seasoned vetran blogger from Canada. When asked , " Do you have a particular training schedule to get ready for the Blog Olympics? Carol responded, "My training emphasizes the toughness component of blogging. I practise the usual tu (toughen up) exercises of knife throwing (various blogging opponents are glad to volunteer as my knife throwers)and walking the tight rope without a net. These traditional techniques toughen me up for the possibility, but not eventuality, of failure. " So look out for Carol, she's one tough competitor and failure is not in her vocabulary.

One of the most controversial bloggers in the competition is Dave of Sugarloaf Mountain. Dave has been seen sporting around a "pumpkin" or large orange object everywhere he goes. There has been much speculation as to who Dave really is and what are his intentions with the large orange object.

Crazy Mom Cat suggustes that Dave is not his real name? "No, that's just his blogging name to make us think he's "super nice Dave"...you know, the guy everyone likes?But,I know the truth. His real name is...DAVID GILLOOLY Insanely jealous of his brother Jeff's brush with fame, he is now determined to give the blogging world a whack in the shin somehow. Watch out fellow blogger, I suggest you wear shin guards at the next meet...you could be next!"

There you have it! Who will walk away with the gold tonight? Will everyone be able to walk away? Speculations are high and the competition is ready. Ready, Set, Go for the Gold!
