More medals.....a word from our sponsors

The guy I do the billboards with, who shall remain Mason, suggested that the one thing I should not do on my blog is to insult the sponsors.  Screw it.  Here goes:

Dumbest sponsor billboards-

The gold goes to..."Charmin.  Enjoy the Go."

The Silver to....."J.C. Penney.  When it fits, you feel it."

And the Bronze..."Diet Coke.  You're on."

Congratulations to all!

Day 12. All downhill from here

I was listening to a news radio station in Washington, D.C.this morning as I sunbathed again and had breakfast. It's even warmer here today.  Shirtsleeve weather. They are expecting up to 18 inches of snow in the D.C. Area.  They referred to it as "Snowchi." Meanwhile I appear to be getting an actual tan.

Big day. Fewer days ahead than behind on my assignment. I even have enough socks to last until I get home. Oops. Gotta go.  Just arrived at work.  Time to record "Brought to you by" 100 times ...

Mount the podium

As we approach our final week of coverage, it's time for my customary and proprietary private Olympic medals.

Our first category: most boisterous crowds by nationality in the media bar at 3 AM.

The gold-medal goes to… Australia!

The silver… in a real upset… Canada!

Barely eking out a bronze… The US!

Just missing out was Great Britain.  Points were deducted for a lack of fist bumping and backslapping.

Finishing fifth....Germany...hey, I'm half German so that hurts. I'm also half Irish. If they were here they would've topped the medals stand.

Don't tell the authorities

2am.  Waiting for bus.  Stray dog that avoided apprehension finds Mc Donald's leftovers.  We're all rooting for you.

Re: Oink!

I rest my case.

Another casualty

Justin is given a decent burial.

Appropriately beneath the audio console.

47 channels and nothing's on
