I am positive. Aboslutely positive. Without a doubt positive. I will try harder to not find any humor and be more of a stiff from now on. Good luck to all of you WSR Olympians.

I hear they were going to do a pay for view on it but the time slot got bumped by "Lady's of knitting World Championships"..........."Look at that!! a double cross stitch followed by a triple under loop" simply amazing Lady's and gentlemen...................

I guess I find humor in the use of the word Olympics in this event. Like it's some sort of athletic competition! And for some reason I picture the contestants wearing black rim glasses and a shirt with a pocket protecter full of pens! It just seems like something that would be a nerd festival. I'm sorry guys but that's just the image it evokes in my mind and it makes me chuckle!
I know, I know, it's a serious event but I just can't bring myself to take it seriously. I'm sorry.

Now excuse me while I train for the sleeping Olympics. I think I have a very good chance of winning!
