Row, row, row your boat...

gentle down Town Lake (I wonder if crewÜ is out tonight...)

Ahhh, Thursday night; crewÜ sweeping night. And, alas, I'm not rowing. So instead, I'll post 2 recent articles I'm stumbled upon about rowing:

1) The end prize/purpose of a reality show currently on-air in China is to pick a male and a female cox for the China's crews for the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

2) A paper in New Jersey recently ran this story about Rutger's rowing--the men's lightweight and heavyweight rowing are among 6 sports that Rutger's has announced that are cutting (men's swimming is another one, as well).


Yes, not a particularly gigantic post tonight, but I'm prep'ing to drive 300+ miles to Gainesville tomorrow to watch the Texas/Florida dual meet (and hightail it back outta Gatorland before the Florida/South Carolina football game on Saturday). So I off to get ready for that. Night.


Life is but a dream...


(crewÜ'rs, sorry for the lack of novelty, but check out the link on "life is but a dream", as well as what Wiki says on Rowing--maybe that'll make up for it, if not the wiki, then the addition lyrics of Row, Row, Row...)
