The Danish equestrian team wins the Bronze in Dressage
From the left is Andreas Helgstrand, Princess Nathalie Zu Sayn-Wittgensteinon (yes she is royal!) and then Anne van Olst. Congrats! We are now no. 37 along with amongst others, Tajikistan (where the heck is that?) and Togo.
In other olympic news our Danish tennis talent numero uno Miss Caroline Wozniacki lost yesterday to Russian Dementieva and is leaving the olympics to go back to the United States to practice for the US Open.
Arrivederci bitches!
Like at the Fabulous Dinahs blog it's been a little dude heavy around here, which is understandable as the dudes are hot! Yet, I want to give those who miss the ladies (I'm not saying Caroline Wozniacki isn't a lady, but she is still a teenager) so here is a few ladies.
Cheerleaders making the men stand at attention
Larissa Franca from Brasil - is that a come hither?
Milagros Crespo - right here!
Mmmm… Larissa is sandy…
ReplyDeleteDressage: now, I don't mean to diss your accomplishment here, but what other sport requires you to dress up in your Sunday best. And why do they get flowers and medals when the horses do all the hard work?
I thought you'd like that Tim. Maybe I'll post some more tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteYou know, Dressage is a fabulous(ly dull) sport. In fact it probably is one of the most lame disciplines in the olympics (except maybe table tennis and such) but I do like that it's so sophisticated unlike the rest of the Olympic Games.
I personally would never waste a second watching Dressage. But I'm thrilled that we got our first medal.
You'd think the horses at least get a cube of sugar, a carrot or something.
They probably get turned into glue when the competition is over…
ReplyDeleteI hope so. It's important to recycle.
ReplyDeleteIndeed. Oh, and as for the sandy ladies, I'll be offering my services to brush them off at the London 2012 games. It's a hard job, but someone's got to do it.
ReplyDeleteThat's both very helpful and nice of you.
ReplyDeleteI may have to come over and help out the men.
Let's hope they don't have to wear a tank top in London (although I suspect they may need a parka)
I think they'll be too busy taking part in the 200 metre ram-raid, the synchronised drive-by, and the mug-a-thon to even think about doing beach volleyball.
ReplyDeleteI think you're trying to lure Tim with these pics now that IVD has dumped him for Eroswings.
ReplyDeleteTim: I think you may be right.
ReplyDeleteNot to forget the shop-a-thon on Bond St.
MJ: You think so?
*wicked grin*
I haven't dumped Tim, we're just having a lovers tiff, so wipe that wicked grin off your face, CyberPetra!
ReplyDeleteAnd on to something less serious: WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO HOLD THE FREAKIN' GREEN ELF SHORTS CAPTION COMPETITION?!?
You know, I've tried but I can't get that grin off my face. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteIn due time IDV. I first have to come up with a suitable PR campaign with market analysis and all sorts of projections.
Plus I generally skip step 1 to 8 and just do 9 and 10. The result is devastating and I don't want to it to be my Street Fighter. So.... we'll see.
How about that! Congrats to Denmark! Bronze is a helluva lot better then getting nothing! Besides, you can lord it all over the other losers!
ReplyDeleteThe beach volleyball ladies are hot!
Onto Larissa again - I wish she had 'knickers' written on her bottom. It would go perfectly with the 'bra' written on her top.
ReplyDeleteHmmm.
Um, IDV, I'm not having a tiff with you. Are you schizophrenic?
Congrats to Denmark! I love how dressed up they all are. I also love it when Royalty competes in the Olympics...it joins two of my interests!
ReplyDeleteI nominate Tim to be a cheerleader at the 2012 games.
Yeah, OK. I'm down with that. Although it'll need to be in the spirit of the London games - i.e. instead of a ra-ra skirt I'll be dressed like an extra from a Guy Ritchie movie, and instead of pom-poms I'll be brandishing a sawn-off shotgun and randomly firing shots into the sky.
ReplyDeleteBingowings: Thank you!
ReplyDelete*parades our bronze medal around every nation that didn't win anything yet*
Tee-heee!
Tim: I was thinking they might not be all that bright. "Oh, so which one is the bra again? Oh it says so on the back"
Dinah: Thank you. I like the combo too. Her mother, the Queen was there too. Of course they don't have a country but that's neither here nor there.
Tim: It would be a bit more festive if you kept the ra-ra skirt on while brandishing a sawn-off shotgun and randomly firing shots into the sky.
I'm hating on those pert buttocks.
ReplyDeleteYou could surely rival those but I hear you.
ReplyDeleteI've decided to be more in awe and jealous.
Hate is such a strong word that can only be used in extreme cases like with broccoli and Nicole Kidmans acting.
We're not having a tiff, Tim? Yay! We're lovers again!
ReplyDelete* looks forward to the 2012 Olympics as Guy Ritchie extras tend to do without their tops *
Well Tim in a ra ra skirt and his top off holding a sawn-off shotgun.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it gets any better than that.

ReplyDeleteI don't think it gets any better than that.
Well y'all have never seen The Beast in a shorty wetsuit then
Hubba Hubba
You can't say something like that and not back it up with visuals Beastie.
ReplyDeleteWill you be wearing that for the opening of the London games?
I think you should put it on now, just for practice.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Dinah.
ReplyDelete:-)
