After some deep thought and quiet soul-searching. I have decided to qualify for the next winter olympics. My next question after this decision was in what sport? Winter rather than summer, since summer is too hard to qualify for. I ran through a list of my skills...I play hockey twice a week...damn it Canadian team too strong...unless I married an Italian Bird...could be possible...but maybe another sport. Speed-skating, cross-country skiing and downhill skiing are too popular, and you have to put in some serious training effort. Hmmm, what about Bobsled, Luge or Skeleton...I weigh about buck-thirty....can't push a bobsled. I guess that leaves me Luge or Skeleton....don't have to be in great shape....very little competition...sound like this could be the one. Skeleton is a little newer, but something about being called a Luger....really appeals to me. So I guess that does it, I am going to qualify in Luge for the next Olympics.....Do they still do Doubles Luge?.....I would love to be the bottom guy.
