I heard a wild question on my way home - what would be your souvenir of choice from the Olympic games?
Let’s think about that - throw out the option of a medal but everything else is game - what would you say?
Me - I’d choose Misty May Traenor.

What? People don’t count? Ok, how about her headband? Too creepy? Fine. I’ll take Bolt’s shoes.
What else is there? What would you vote for? The dropped relay baton (two lucky people could get this)? A Chico kind of night from Mrs. Phelps? The Chinese team’s passports? How about Bela Karolyi’s sideburns?
Seriously, this is a tough question. Let me know what you would choose.

I want to nominate that Leryn Franco becomes a permanent fixture in my house… either that or the olympic torch. Not the one they ran with around the world… the cauldron on top of the birds nest.
If we expand this exercise to all of China (except Tibet, they didn’t promote that at all…), I would take the Great Wall. How awesome would it be to answer the question of “Where do you live” with “The Great Wall”? It would be TOTALLY awesome.

I like swimmers…so I’ll take any of those hot boys. Ryan Lochte is pretty…he would make a lovely trophy :)
