Just thought I'd post a feel good. We're off to Europe on Friday and making our way to London to watch our son race at the Paralympics. His name is brad scott (representing Australia ). He's racing in the. T37 800 and 1500m. I know how patriotic all you Americans are but give a little cheer for him. He won silver in Beijing. So I'm hoping he will bring home some more bling. He'll be the sexy red head wearing green and gold xxxxx

    HUGE cheer going out
    for Brad!! Knowing someone in person (as close as it gets, anyway) trumps in sports patriotism.... :)
