The Olympics So Far

Everybody's going to be talking about badminton in a bit, so let me weigh in with the sports that I'm watching alone.


Choi Min-Ho is GOD. I am in awe of the Judo he plays. The above throw is a te-guruma, or hand wheel, and he managed to pull it off even though Ludwig was sprawled forward. My jaw dropped open throughout the entire thing.


Oh, and it turns out Bill Gates likes Badminton. Cute pants. Hehehe.


Masato Uchishiba won the 66kg class last night, apparently by landing on the Frenchmen's head, and then choking him. Poor Darbelet tapped out. A great bunch of the Thomian judokas were talking about it this morning, and I wondered aloud how the poor guy felt winning like that.

Tonight's match (74 kg) was won with a 13 second morote-gari (double handed reap). Both Elnur Mammadli and Wang Ki-chun are 19.



Sweet. =)

Dumbledore Is Gay

On behalf of Cedric who is too horror stricken to even lift a finger to blog. Source: BBC

Harry Potter author JK Rowling has revealed that one of her characters, Hogwarts school headmaster Albus Dumbledore, is gay.

"Dumbledore is gay," she said, adding he was smitten with rival Gellert Grindelwald, who he beat in a battle between good and bad wizards long ago.

"Falling in love can blind us to an extent," she said, and added Dumbledore was "horribly, terribly let down" and his love for Grindelwald was his "great tragedy".

Hello there friends, families, closet perverts. I am quite sure that you understand the horrific events that have brought us here today. Dumbledore. Love of the magical world. Greatest wizard of all time. The embodiment of all things good and true. He who so valiantly gave up his life for Harry Potter and the Wizarding World.

Absolutely Gay.

I dont know about you but this scares me. As Jk Rowling so aptly puts it:

"Oh, my god," Rowling, 42, concluded with a laugh, "the fan fiction".

Many Happy Returns of the Day...
