HA! I, too, would rather watch chariot racing than
that "damned ribbon twirling nonsense"!

Today's Olympics HAVE morphed into something entirely
different.  It's a shame really.  I enjoyed watching
the amatures competiting.  I don't recall amature
equestrians EVER competiting...not TRUE amatures like
the majority of us.

Oh well...back under my rock.
