Archery has also gotten very popular since The Hunger Games. Classes are full and waiting lists are long. Russell also fenced for a few years. (He likes the solitary sports.) I tried to persuade him to fence foil or epee, but he thought sabre was just too cool. His archery and fencing competitions were the only times I ever got excited about sports.

It should be played on a field!<br /><br />That being said, if there was underwater gymnastics I could possibly do a backflip and land on the balance beam.Friðvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08508816404445742901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1108683344231590489.post-15875381042022413472012-08-02T20:45:10.647-07:002012-08-02T20:45:10.647-07:00i don't think it's boring at all! i love i...i don't think it's boring at all! i love it all except for the events on the OTHER NBC stations...but everything airing all day on CH4...i am watching faithfully...volleyball, diving, swimming, rowing, water polo, and gymnastics...love it all! only the opening ceremonies were boring.jaimep99https://www.blogger.com/profile/11064477445484180206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1108683344231590489.post-29799841278332927602012-08-02T20:42:21.529-07:002012-08-02T20:42:21.529-07:00i do work from home! many advantages...but also......i do work from home! many advantages...but also...i know the cameras do have zoom lenses but there are also cameramen right in their faces...i feel badly when they want some privacy...but that goes with the territory, i guess. thanks for reading!jaimep99https://www.blogger.com/profile/11064477445484180206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1108683344231590489.post-19145651682949979342012-08-02T20:17:21.753-07:002012-08-02T20:17:21.753-07:00You hit it right on the head.
