Ken Gargett Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 I met an athlete near London's Olympic Park. I asked "Are you a Pole Vaulter?" He said "No, I'm German... and how do you know my name?"

daggersarge Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 Husband says to wife, "My London Olympic condoms have arrived. ... I think I'll wear Gold tonight." Wife says, "Why not wear Silver and come second for a change."

canadianbeaver Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 I get them all but this one: Canadian athlete visiting his Scottish girlfriend's quarters: Him: "Is that a donught or a meringue?" Her: "No, you are right!" Me dumb Canuck...

Her: "No, you are right!" Me dumb Canuck... Hi Lisa, No, not dumb at all... Try saying it out loud with a very strong Glaswegian accent (with apologies to all my Scottish friends!) Cheers Dan
frenchkiwi Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 Now I get it!!! LOL !!!!! good for you... i need an explanation
canadianbeaver Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 Ok... Well first of all, you have to stretch it to think that doughnut and meringue go together. Then with a heavy Scottish accent say a meringue as a verb, as "or am I ..."
frenchkiwi Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Australia launching a new trend: SILVER IS THE NEW GOLD
Ken Gargett Posted August 6, 2012 Author Posted August 6, 2012 Australia launching a new trend: SILVER IS THE NEW GOLD first of all, anything written by that dill must be completely discounted. dud footballer who seems determined to make himself a celebrity. that said, it has been heartening to see how often we are in the top two nations in the world in so many sports. too many actually. not the best timing for those of us heading to the land of the long whinge to see our useless wallabies cop another caning (if only they'd leave deans there when they return). the sad thing is that the idiots in the aussie press predicting golds out the wazoo will have forgotten how silly they look in four years and repeat it. however, not over yet and if we cannot at least beat nz then it is a dire olympics indeed.

[those athletes who actually believed their own press and talked themselves up before going down (which is a sport aussies excel at - magnussen the prime example) did however, deserve to cop it]. i hate it most when the idiots on telly ignore or patronise athletes who don't medal even when they've outperformed expectations by a country mile.
