Obviously, this blog is as much a learning device as it is a source of light entertainment. Accordingly, I will endevour to answer queries from the reading public- if you have questions you want answered, hit the comments sections.
- Dear ‘Lympics Log,
What is the meaning behind the 5 rings on the Olympic Flag?
Despite the widely accepted theory that it is to do with the five competing continents, it is actually a reflection of the five main traits desired in any Olympic champion: integrity, attractiveness, awesomeness, winningness and richitude.
- Dear ‘Lympics Log,
Exactly how old is RTE’s rambling "Memory Man” Jimmy Magee?
It is not possible to measure Jimmy Magee’s age in human years. It’s a bit like when your calculator goes haywire because the number is too high. After careful research, however, I can exclusively reveal that Jimmy is 2.67 praktons old. The Dead Sea Scrolls are 1.72 praktons old, if that helps to put it into context…
- Dear 'Lympics Log,
Why are Olympic boxers not allowed to have facial hair?
Officially, the word from high is that beards can cause abrasions to opponents faces, and more importantly doctors maintain that clean shaven athletes allow them to see cuts during the fight. Unofficially, it's because Jacques Rogge has a burning hatred of facial hair ever since walking in on his sister getting spit-roasted by ZZ Top.
