Omg....

Here's a link to scores. LSU and Cal through. Cal had a somewhat nervy beam, but Stanford struggled on Bars so they never really pressured seriously. Haleigh Bryant leads AA with 39.7125...

DSD?

of all the ways I've wasted time....lol Good memories of being in elementary school for some kind of eclipse, though. The usual suspects got admonished for looking at the sun.

So, while not a choir like at worlds, the Milwaukee Symphony String Quartet played the national anthem at the Brewers home opener yesterday. Additionally, there were people, not sure how they were selected, holding a ginormous American flag in the outfield. It was football field sized. Anyway...

But how could she stay on if she didn't compete last year?

Michelle's family choosing Shep Goldberg as her agent made a world of difference. His longstanding relationships with prominent sportswriters helped her immensely. As a result, the media extended grace to Danny Kwan that they did not extend to Pat Lipinski. I am sure that Pat was more likely...

Neither here nor there, but would love Amber to skate an exhibition to "I'm just Ken."

Take her first two jumps from US Nationals in 2006, then add the rest of the program from Turin. Problem solved!

I'm really surprised that the lab takes that long to find malignancies. Very sorry you had to go through that. Since 11/1/23, I've had 2 employees diagnosed with cancer and 3rd who is in remission get some really odd blood counts (iron is off the charts low). The healthy looking employee...

I think Amber loses precision, if not necessarily energy or speed. This is a physical issue. Putting a 2a on the end of a jump requires a lot of precision and timing, I would think. Maybe just switching 3l2t and 3z2a2a to 3l2a2a and 3z2t would make a world of difference?

Has nationals ever been in Indianapolis? I know it has more than 100K, but when I thought of previous Midwest locations, I wondered. My first thought was, of course, Ann Arbor, LOL. Maybe they figured out how to put an ice rink in Crisler Arena. :D

Honestly, the more 'normals' who talk about how wonderful the convicted s.o. was, the greater that s.o.'s crimes, imo. These crimes happen in no small part because of all the actual goodwill the criminal creates. While a criminal who hides in the dark alley and attacks may use more physical...
