mud fun

I just saw footage on television of Japanese elementary school children and their teachers playing games in an unplanted, water-covered rice field. Tag, relay races, and dodge ball. The kids were wearing their school uniform swimsuits, goggles, and swim caps. The teachers were wearing t-shirts and shorts. Everyone was having fun and everyone was covered in mud.

I wish that mud-based fun was more prevalent in the world of sports.

man-d wins gold

A little known event at this year�s summer Olympics was the race to be the first to comment on my web page. Sister-in-law extraordinaire, �Man-D�, took gold. Finishing 7 hours and 51 minutes later, was silver-medallist, �29.� The bonze-medallist has yet to cross the finish line.
