because they like them that way?By Andrew Pollack on 08/21/2008 at 10:49 PM EDT
All of our athletes can wear their hat any way they like. I don't think you
can be the greatest in the world at anything without some arrogance creeping
in.

Each event is counted as only one medal. In that case, China does have the
largest number in gold.
However if we count all the gold medals awarded in total, including all team
member medals awarded, what would the medal count be then?

I find it weird that we go by the "total amount of medals won" as being the
best....who effin cares about Bronze as much as Gold.....okay it's nice to get
any medal at all but seriously the U.S thinks they're all baddass with like 32
Medals with like 12 bronze and 12 silver ha ha. Ummmmm only 8 Gold?

I live in Vancouver.... GO CANADA

The truth is, I haven't had much to say that was worthy of more than a basic social media post -- until today. For my current work, I was assigned a new laptop.

I want a military prepared to help us, not just hurt other people. As an American I expect that with the ridiculous funding of our military might, we are prepared for damn near everything. Not just killing people and breaking things, but ......

This is not quite a scam because it's technically legal, but it's run very much like a scam. This company works with a few "clients" that have vast repositories of copyrighted images. The trolls do a reverse web search on those images looking for hits. When they find one on a site that looks like someone they can scare, they work it like ......
