Snowboarders are a Different Breed...

U.S. snowboarder SCOTT LAGO won a Bronze medal in the Halfpipe event last week. Then he decided to use his medal to help PICK UP CHICKS.


--Lago wore his bronze medal and a Team U.S.A. t-shirt while partying in Vancouver late Thursday night. And TMZ got photos of him allowing an Olympic party chick to BITE his medal while he held it.


--Then Lago and the girl decided to take it a step further. He put the medal around his WAIST, and she kneeled to kiss it while it dangled down the front of his pants.


--Lago arrived back in the States on Saturday, but he didn't seem too torn up by the controversy. He wrote a post on Twitter saying, quote, "Keeping my medal in a safe spot for now haha."




So is this enough to get sent home from the Olympics???

Need Proof Reader?

A TORONTO NEWSPAPER RAN A LUGE-THEMED AD RIGHT NEXT TO AN ARTICLE ABOUT THE DEAD LUGER:


Someone at the Toronto newspaper "The Globe and Mail" wasn't paying attention to the layout on Tuesday.


--The paper ran an Olympic-themed ad from the Chartered Accountants of Canada on page O12. It showed a luge racer and said, "When there are no brakes to rely on, every decision matters."


--Directly opposite the ad, on page O13 was an article titled "Games still reeling from shock of luger's death." (--Check out these unfortunately placed items here . . .)

The coolest invention EVER!!!







THERE'S A ROBOTIC KEG THAT CAN MOVE AROUND A PARTY AND POUR DRINKS:


Last weekend, a group of inventors unveiled the "Heineken Bot" at the Kinetica Art Fair in London. Basically, it's a Heineken mini-keg-on-wheels that's been programmed to zoom around a party pouring drinks for people. And yes, it's as cool as it sounds.
