I like Bolt. Why rub it in everyone's face that he could have beaten the world record even more? Some commentator was saying he cheated the fans by not "smashing" the record. He was already worlds away better than everyone else.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

Missed you, too, Emily! Give 'em hell!
ita, I totally know! I love that he's nonchalant about it. It makes his competition a whole 'nother level of awesome, and it's probably healthier for him in the long run.
And he is beautiful on the track, I tell you what.

“Not dead yet!”
See, this is where being as competitive as I am is not necessarily a good thing. He's driving me nuts, not going all out, because it seems like it's disrespect for his competitors.
But I've been told I'm too competitive for my own good, so that's probably my own issues speaking out there.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I love him. I thought his reaction in the 100 was legitimate and heartfelt man-glee. He's a freak with a training diet of Mc Nuggets. He's a force of nature. He should enjoy this as much as possible.

Hubby thinks he started celebrating because he thought he was already over the line.

That seems really unlikely.

Hi folks!
Sorry to interrupt the Olympics talk, but I have a question for any of the teaching buffistae who've used blogging sites. Which one(s) would you recommend I have my class use? I'm only on LJ and would kind of like to use a different site for teaching.
thanks

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hubby thinks he started celebrating because he thought he was already over the line.
Oh, no. He ran his heats like that too. Look right, look left, don't kill yourself.
It's just that no one else could afford to run the final like a heat.
