I just confirmed with my sister’s girlfriend that their dentist’s nephew is Kevin Tan, a member of the Men’s Gymnastics Team for USA. So he messed up a little bit on the pommel horse, but he still helped them clinch the bronze medal (not bad for an entire team of first-time Olympians). And I believe an intern at my previous job was friends with Natalie Coughlin at UC Berkeley, proven ass kicker on the US Swim Team. So basically, I know them.

I think you’ve beaten me with your fancy connections to current Olympians. I did see swimmer Maddy Crippen get into a car accident one morning in an icy parking lot.
Also, I totally watched the opening ceremonies on TV.

Nelson, I knew it! The timing of your trip was just too coincidental.
