Kit watches the Olympics for you
Our pal Kit lives in a house of men… specifically her husband and her two sons, aged 8.5 and 11. They watch a lot of sports. When we visited them last summer, they were watching the Tour de France. You heard me… beautiful sunshine outdoors, a pool, toys, games… a bazillion distractions and Kit’s men were watching a bike race. The male of the species, ladies and gentlemen.
Here is the text of an e-mail Kit sent yesterday:
So okay, we rotted on the couch ALL DAY yesterday watching the Olympics…• Chad Hendrick (long track speed skating) is one of those HOT guys who really should NEVER say anything!
• Kid observation of the day (proof I live in a ‘boy house’): “Mom, I don’t think it is a good idea to have big parts if you do Luge…it makes you less aerodynamic!”* [This comment came out after watching a particularly well hung Italian do his run.]
As you can see, Kit is right about Hendrick. He’s a total Danny. Do I see a razor ad in his future? Samples of recorded interviews at the NBC website prove her second point. He strings cliché after cliché until he sounds like George W. at the State of the Union address. His teeth sure are white, though. Definitely a razor ad.
As for luging… I never was very good at it anyway.

* Obviously, I am "tm-ing" this statement right now.
