    Um... If he had gills, that would only mean that he could breathe underwater (which he doesn't because he comes up for air). Gills don't increase you're swimming speed if you're still going up for air :p

    Well China is winning with the number of golds.
    Then USA and just saw Germany ahead of S. Korea in golds.

    I just can't believe how many golds the Chinese have gathered.

    Last night was a very close race for Phelps, almost lost it.

    Instead of double-posting, you could edit your previous post instead ;)

    China is owning in gold medals as usual, and only trailing by a couple medals in total. :)
    Unfortunately, track+field is starting off, which probably plays against the Chinese.

    Olympics have been great so far. Mad props to Phelps and gj to all of the athletes who've had a chance to compete.
