Probably the same reason why men like to watch the girls play beach volley ball. Mind you, some of the uniforms leave very little for the imagination!<BR/><BR/>Take Care,<BR/>PeterPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12097919387041286154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518187045883429276.post-48174236508787258252008-08-25T07:43:00.000-05:002008-08-25T07:43:00.000-05:00Caryn, I forgot all about the diving.

I concur on the Chinese gymnasts, no way a couple of them meet the minimum age. In fact the makeup they put on them actually made them look younger!J. L.

I also wonder what the investigation will show and what the Olympic Committee will do about it. I suspect nothing. It seems that all Communists countries lie and cheat whenever they get the chance. Honesty and fair play just don't seem to be part of their manifesto!<BR/><BR/>Happy trails.Swubirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16009070690312312456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518187045883429276.post-72669901762400949832008-08-22T16:18:00.000-05:002008-08-22T16:18:00.000-05:00I have the same experience watching the Olympics--...I have the same experience watching the Olympics--only with me it's the Winter Olympics. I grew up in a ski resort ice skating and I love watching the ice dancers.
