NWFlyer 2 #1 April 6, 2012 I was down in Southern California yesterday to spend the day working with my new boss. When I get there she says "I want to propose a slight deviation to our day, hope you don't mind. Have you ever heard of Misty May Treanor?" I sure have. Boss tells me she and her teammate Kerri Walsh will be practicing on the beach not too far away and proposes that we take our meeting down there for a couple hours. Background - my boss's daughter is a serious volleyball player, so boss has turned into total volleyball mom and knows way more than I'll ever know about it. Still, I do at least casually follow the Olympics, so I definitely recognized those names. So we head down to Huntington Beach, park right in front of the beach, and wander down to the beach volleyball area. There's a camera crew there, so it's obvious who the pros are, but other than that, it could just be any other day on the beach if you didn't recognize the American, Chinese, and German Olympians scrimmaging. There's no crazy crowds, no hype, just some amazing talents getting their game on. We sat right on the sand, close enough that balls that were rolling out ended up at our feet. Follow that with a working lunch at a beachside restaurant and I have to say that "not all meetings suck.""There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWFlyer 2 #4 April 6, 2012 Quote I must say, there is no better sporting event outfit then the ones worn by the ladies during competition I hate to disappoint you, but I did see this article recently. Granted, it probably won't change the attire of too many players. (Yesterday was a somewhat cool, partly cloudy day, so I wasn't surprised to see the players wearing a bit more than just bikinis)."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.
