When the US men won the
4x100m relay swimming race? My condo has very thick walls, but I could hear whoops from all my neighbours for over 1 minute after. *
And I kept screaming my fool head off as I watched Michael Phelps
celebrate Jason Lezak's stunning victory over the arrogant France team, with every fibre of his body.
Have you also noted that wherever this guy has gone to meet US Olympic athletes, he's brought them luck? Maybe he should be like
President Chirac, and be made the unofficial mascot.
*Please note that my condo's President is French, and the building is FULL of his countrymen. Seriously, on my floor alone, we have 3 French couples including a very nasty one which left a taunting note pinned on our door, after England crashed out of World Cup 2006.
Don't worry. I won't return the favour tonight. I may be as arrogant as they are, but I for one, am bien elevée.
