Last night at whatever god forsaken hour this was showing on USA, I saw Saber Fencing for the first time.

Holy crap those girls are intense!! But I like how many times the commentators said "primal"
Anakin, you're breaking my heart if you don't come to "I'd Just as Soon Kiss a Wookiee: A Star Wars Panel" at Kumoricon!

I'm pretty sure there was an iceskater from Oregon who won Olympic gold a few years ago.  Maybe not though.

I think you're right...

Oh, that reminds me...
Anyone remember about twelve years ago when Tonya Harding got arrested for beating up her boyfriend & had to do community service?  Well, since at the time she lived in Camas, that's where most of her servicing was done at.  A part of that time was spent at a cemetary in the Camas/Washougal area.  Someone I knew from school accidently almost ran her over... she got a very "scary" glare from Tonya.  (I guess she thought it may have been on purpose, though).  It made me laugh, still makes me laugh.
