"Olympic Bloggers recently concluded their six day, six event 2006 celebration. In Bible prophecy the number 666 is the sign of the antichrist . Have the Blogger Olympics gone too far? What can possibly be next after a sexathlon?"questions Sister Celtic.Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water the Blogger Olympic training trials are starting up again. First training sessions starts Wednesday Feb.15th at 10 P.M. at Blogger Olympic headquarters.
With the winter Olympics beginning this Friday, one has to wonder what wild and wacky events this new and improved training sessions will take. Rumor has it that new events may be introduced with possible product tie-ins to create a bigger buzz in the non-blogging community.
IOBC Chairwoman Barbara Miers denies charges that new judges will be using Magic 8 balls to improve their credibility and accuracy of scoring. She also denies new criteria for protest filing. No points will be awarded for speed of objection, clarity of protest or degree of hissy fit.
Speculation is high as to whether returning champions Uisce or Running2k's will participate in these training sessions. Running has been on a reported hiatus vacationing in Florida. Unofficial reports say that she is auditioning for the role of Tinkerbell in "Pirates of the Caribbean" exhibit. Uisce has been the featured site at Michele's this week and was pre-emptied off Letterman in favor of Super Bowl quarterback Matt Hasslebeck.

I told Dave's producers that I would agree to appear on their show on just one condition, that they had to promise that I would appear that night, or the deal would be off.
They balked at this, saying that sometimes there was an opportunity to grab a "mega-star" -- their words, not mine -- and that there needed to be a little flexibility on my part, as a show of good faith, for such a remote possibility.
"Of course," I offered. And I could think of only one "mega-star" worthy of such a consideration.
They agreed to the celebrity I named.
But it seems there was a bit of a mixup. You see, I did not, in fact, tell them that Matt Hasslebeck was such a mega-star. Of course I was referring to the star of song, stage and screen, the one and only David Hasslehof.
I think this must happen a lot.
