Well my guys did enter the kitty Olympics and seemed like Dolphins in the water until I saw
the competition they were up against.  I finally got the pictures back to put on site,
however, I am so sad to say that my babies did not get first place.  Buddy did, however,
come in third place and he cried all the way home. The kitty Olympics only give two metals
- one for first and another for second place.  I was able to catch the action of the first place
winner who really had so much strength and "paw power strokes" that took him into the
lead immediately and he stayed in the lead for every race. Just the look of determination
on his face showed his strength and the power in his paws was remarkable.  His name
was Smark Spitz and won all eight races.  What a remarkable site to see - raw athletic
prowess.

The second place winner was Craig Louganis who got the medal for second place and
was better at the diving portion but lost in the points given to Smark Spitz.  The crowd
watching went nuts between the two performances of these outstanding athletic hairballs.  
It did tear my heart out with Buddy who was "pawing" his heart out and I am so proud of
him for not giving up.
