Being 30 doesn't hurt getting women, especially if you make money. Marriage is sort of a problem. I'll be married in a year, so that's a guarantee for me.

NorthSideSox72 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 From what I've read the morning, most of the Chicago presentation was sort of flat and meh, but that the two Obamas did pretty well. Chicago's presentation lacked the focus of the other ones, supposedly. I've only seen clips so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) My friend worked the Beijing Olympics. She said 20 minutes before breaking, I believe his own, world record, Hussain Bolt was eating a 20 pc chicken nuggets, goes out with his shoe untied and breaks it. God I'd love to see him run. edit: This is just an olympics story, Don't really expect him to be as fast 8 years from the last, but whatever.
