Like I said above, I'm with you on Laura Wilkinson....great story.

The "doping" thing is a bit nuts. She did have the gold taken away because the team doctor gave her an over-the-counter cold medicine for fever and flu like symptons. The IOC says they realize it is not her fault but they have rules which must be strictly enforced. What a load of crap. The spirit and the letter of the rule need to be evaluated.

HEY BUGSY!!! We need to check in with Skarpi and see what it is they're doing up there in Iceland. Did you see that the girl from Iceland took a bronze in the Pole Vault behind the American and the Australian? What are they jumping up there......the volcano?
