I heard it as "Szechuan heat", especially with "if you're in the mood for spicy shellfish".

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yeah, I was just coming to post about that 33-year-old gymnast! And that was a really great vault, too.

I'm confused! Did one of the Chinese gymnasts have on tights as well as a leotard?

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Yeah, that was interesting to hear in the commentary -- that your body can only take so many repetitions, and when you start full out at age 3, you just get used up faster. That's ugh.

Gymnastics is rough. It hurts even when it's done perfectly. And you often don't do it perfectly, and then just practice through the injuries.

And the leotards magically stay in place.

And I was wondering the same thing, Kat! Also, what the heck was on that Romanian's knee?

Several of the gymnasts looked like they were wearing tights. I don't remember noticing that before.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

First, a 41-year-old swimmer and now, a 33-year-old gymnast.

Not on TV, but 50-year-old fencer.

Well fuck. My sister just called from the ER - my dad fell in his driveway which the city has all torn up for roadwork and seems to have fucked up his knee and possibly broken his shoulder.
