Part III - biathlon, watermelon seed spitting.

Part II - you dissin' fishin'? :> Yeah, it's more fun to do than to watch. Except if they're fishing the Bounday Waters in summer, then THEY can take the blacflies and I'll watch.

Part I - Rhythmic.Gymnastics.

Love this post.

NASCAR, Strong Man Competitions and Horse Racing would have been my number 1's.

Televised hockey is ok, but it is MUCH better in person.

GAME SHOWS kill me, along with most "Reality Television". If we could chase snobby, scrawny, backstabbing people through COMPTON, however, I would watch that.

If you want to see great log sawing skills, head to Elkins, West Virginia for the Mountain State Forest Festival. You would NOT regret it.

I hope.

In case you think I am lying:

Renn - thanks for the link. It looks great.

However, in September there's an event called "Portable Toilets." Click on that, and you find a link that says "Scrapbook Photos." I think I'll pass on that one.
