Why do non US athletes or non US Olympians, especially the ones whom won their event/s or other 2 medialists?
Jessica,
Let me ask you a question:
You mention 2 medals, Why? Is one not enough?
I think we should stay away from events that people can make money at. Like Basketball or Baseball – Those participants are in it for the $$$
We remember those that truly love the sport.
We remember Greg Louganis and Mark Spitz, because they were dedicated and true champions.
We remember Nadia Commenici because she beat the odds of a better trained and better funded Japanese team.
But,
Ask any American who won the Gold for Downhill Slalom and they will say “Who Care’s” – Because, we don’t.
Due to the vast amount of sports that we field in the U.S., we jump on the band wagon when we are winning and get off when we are losing. But, compared to other countries, we don’t care.
Unless they are true Champions! Those we love!
when will god show his grace on me?
Hey Sandy,
Sorry, I am not religious. But, I do believe in God! I thought about the “Ask Him” answers – OK! I also thought about the “When u need but least expect” answers – Whatever! “Accept as your Lord and Savior…” If you hadn’t, you wouldn’t be asking.
Since I am not religious, my only logical answer is:
When you wake up in the morning – Breath!, That’s Gods grace.
When you see loved ones – Enjoy that sight, That’s Gods grace.
When you hear a sound you love – Listen!, That’s Gods grace.
When you get home, too tired to move – Relax!, That’s Gods grace.
When you see a picture or hear a story of great suffering – Cry!, That’s Gods grace.
When you read a headline of a known person falling from their own pedestal – Chuckle!, That’s Gods grace.
And
When you can’t figure out why some in the world have so much, yet you have so little; when you don’t know why the rich get richer, yet you seem to struggle week after week; when all of your friends are married and have kids and you are single and alone, Remember, This TOO is God’s grace!
He remembers all of us in his actions, some of us are just stronger than others and can handle adversity better than the rest. He will always answer our prayers – We just forget that sometimes – the answer is, No!

Temperatures inside Starbucks stores?
Hey Bird,
While I would like to think that the theory is about loiterers or getting your coffee to cool off and then get you to leave – it’s not that scientific.
Most chains have a recommended temperature for their dining room. It’s typically 72-76 (f). So when they open, the thermostat is either set or the cooling is just turned on (Temp set long ago). To keep us from adjusting the temperature, the thermostat is kept either near the cashier/coffee station or is trapped under a locked plastic cover somewhere higher up in the dining room.
If the Thermostat is near the Coffee Station/Cashier, that is normally the warmest part of the room.
If the Thermostat is under that locked plastic cover, the cover doesn’t get the “Wind Chill” that we get – So it is “Artificially” high.
If we complain to the staff (At any food place, not just Starbucks) they are the ones running around and they look at us the same way that a pet looks at us when we speak to it… Nothings wrong with the temperature…. Now give me some money tips!
Hope this helps,

one can swim in water… By practising gradually in less dense fluids can’t one ultimately swim/fly in air ?
Hey Graju,
Well, it’s a weird theory you have but the ability to swim has nothing to do with it.
And practice…. doesn’t make perfect!
Swimming is only the ability to move the fluid you are in fast enough to keep you buoyant in that density. If you were in a salt lake, you would float without the use of your hands or feet. If you were in lava (if it weren’t hot enough to cremate you) you could be an Olympic swimmer and you wouldn’t last more than a few seconds.
In order to “swim” in air that is the density that your water is in, you would have to move your arms at the same speed and at the same angle and in the same motion of a helicopter.
Thankfully, I won’t see you fly by my house any time soon.

If a chameleon is in a room of mirrors in every side, what would it look like?
Hey Yep,
Like your computer, a Chameleon has a Default.
It’s a mottled green color.
That is what it would look like.
