We're just as bad as he is.

Maybe as a joke, but you're dog-paddling in Noam Chomsky/Ollie Stone/Keebler Kucinich waters with that one.

Ron Paul is a wonderful, peace-loving man but our enemies ain't. And so we have a military and always will.

Ummm- I was copying the reference to dog paddling from the mental_floss article I cited. I thought maybe it was just kicking the feet - but I guess not.
Should I change the title?

Perhaps:
Worst/Best Olympic qualifying race ever-100meter swim!
?

Am I the only one who failed to see any dog-paddling?


Never saw it. Good job to Eric.

I think it was almost a bit of a dog paddle when he reversed direction. Maybe not *quite*, but nearly.

This is one of the best Olympics-related things I've ever seen.

Am I the only one who failed to see any dog-paddling?

"How can you talk about what "we" should do over a few thousand generations when we only live one life?"

Just saying we should realize our limited part in those generations. What we do effects what they'll do.

As far as freaking out, you get that when you jump into the water not knowing how to swim. I study particle physics for fun and that gets me to at least a dog paddle. Even Quantum theory doesn't freak me out as much when I learned the basics and see how it's used practically. On the emotional side, knowing where you stand helps. As simple and humble as your position may be, it is your position and nothing in the universe can take that away.

Reminds me of the a third world guy talking to this reporter. The reporter asked him who he was and he told him his name. Then the reporter asked him what proof he had as to who he was, (the article was about how 3rd worlds have no ID cards etc). The guy just looked at him like he was an idiot and said, "I'm standing right in front of you! What could be more proof than that?"
