I love gymnastics most. Then, ice skating. What is your favorite to watch?

Gymnastics is my favorite for the Summer Olympics, followed closely by boxing. Ice Hockey is my favorite in the Winter Olympics, followed closely by skiing. The Olympics is the *only* time I watch Ice Hockey--the game as played there is totally different from hockey as played in the Leagues. If I want to see punches, blood and general mayhem, I watch boxing--it's not what I want from hockey or any other non-boxing sport for that matter.

The organization committee for the Sydney games placed an order in February for 100,000 condoms specifically for the Olympic athletes. In June they reconsidered and ordered 300,000 more.
NOW what's your favorite Olympic Sport?

Apparently all the athletes were given 52 condoms. In 17 days, that's 3 per, right? And it takes two to tango. Six per pair. Do you think they'll all be competing with dopy grins on their faces?

krs,
Interestingly the Mormon Church are not happy campers about the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics handing out condoms. There was a huge controversy over it but I believe it is a requirement by the World Health Organization when there are gatherings of people of a certain size (number of people, not their #$@% size).
Nagano 1998 actually had an official provider of condoms.
BTW, I'm STILL sitting...may I stand up now?

( Off-topic post to Maui: I read your post elsewhere. The insensitivity that was shown to you amazes me. I'm sorry this happened to you - you didn't deserve to be treated that way. The others didn't either.  )

There are a couple of flaws in your accounting here. Can you think what they might intail?

krs,
I think your Freudian slip is showing here. The word I think you wanted was "entail"..then again, maybe not.

Considering atleast one has been suspended FOR LIFE from competing in the Olympics for testing TWICE for cocaine...the "dopy grin" may not just be attributed to a fun episode of bumping butts.

If you stack all the condoms on top of each other is that what you call a condominium?
