Quit picking a fight with me, a nice pm would have sufficed. It's not the needle that one should worry, it's the liquid content. P.S. : Better now? |

Love it Hello, thank you very much, can't see what it is but I love it
Liquid contents have never bothered me, but the needle scares the s..t out of me. |

Caster Semenya ...... world champ womens 800m She DESTROYED the rest of the field,winning by at least 25m.
The IAAF has called for tests.Until proven otherwise she has the gold medal.Good for her !! She grew up in the Limpopo province.Very poor background.Not even running water or electricity in their house....and now at the age of 18,she is the world champ.Hows that for guts !!!! Give her the benefit of the doubt.A lot in the press about her this past weekend.Her fellow athletes,room mates et al,has all confirmed she is a women. Mulaudzi ... 800m mens champ Mokoena ... silver in the mens longjump. They did us proud !! |

Looks more like a scalpel to me, Eddie.

I watched tape of Caster (on youtube), and even when you compare her run to the Kenyan and Kenya has incredible athletes, Caster's body was in a totally different posture. Amazing! Talking about how we all (most) love/like fine swiss timepieces, wines, clothes, writing instruments, & cars...........how about fine tuning our bodies? The body can be fine tuned too.
You had a group of world class runners, yet it seemed like Caster was from another planet. I always find it exciting when one athlete can blow the rest of the pack away. I wonder how Carl Lewis (the master of fast) would have faired against Hussein Bolt?!!??!!?? |
