    That’s some gold winning FROS that you have there Karen. Have a FROS-tacular week.

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      You, too, Kelly! :)

  2. Freshechelle says:

    I’ll have that last one please.

    Oh, we weren’t placing our order?

    1. RobinRBL says:

      What a menu!

    2. Karen Hawkins says:

      That was my favorite, too. Mmmmmm-mmmm. What’s in the water over there and can we get some for over here?

  3. RobinRBL says:

    Oh I like the rowing guy. What if my ship was disabled off the coast? And what if he was the able-bodied guy who came to row me to shore? But instead of that, he whisked me off to his pirate ship and -

    Oh wait. I’ve been reading too much.

    LOL

    Great FROS!

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Lol! You go, girlfriend! He’d make a fabulous pirate, too.

  4. Judy F says:

    awesome FROS. Going to miss all these wonderful sites

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Me, too. I enjoyed the games so much. I’m sorry to see them go. :(

  5. Linda Miller says:

    Ooh! What a lovely way to start the week and look one or each day!

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Linda, FROS is here to start your week off with a bang, and if you can get the FROS Glow to last all week, then so much the better!

  6. Kelly Ryan Watson says:

    *sigh* I am truly going to miss not being able to see fine specimens like this any time I turn on the tv. And yes, I would go a round with Clemente anytime! Oh, and I won’t even start about the swimming!

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Kelly, I agree. If only they’d schedule a mini-Olympics to tide over until next time.

  7. Amanda says:

    I’m so glad you put James Magnussen on here. I heard in him an interview and I can listen to that man read the phone book.

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      He talks, too? BONUS!!!! :)

  8. Kathleen McCluskey says:

    can you make a calender so we can see then all year? better yet make it a four year calender to hold us until Rio in 2016,

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Oh, a FROS calendar? Ooooooh! That would be awesome. I’ll have to check into that!

  9. LouisaCornell says:

    If we are ordering, I’ll have one of each please!!

    What is it about Australia and swimmers? They really do grow some fine specimens in OZ !!

    And I have been meaning to take up fencing again. Does Mr. Kruse give PRIVATE lessons?

    Thanks, Karen, for gathering the best part of the Olympics for our perusal!

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Louisa, it was hard just selecting a few, because there were a LOT if great ones. but I think I’ve got a nice ‘overview.’ Heh!

  10. Cindi says:

    Do we always have such beautiful Olympians or is this one just … exceptional?

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Cindi, I think it was an exceptional year, but we’ll have to study Rio’s candidates to know for certain. Poor us! :)

  11. ginger robertson says:

    I would like one of each too. Oh that would make me a cougar. But if I add two of their ages together I should be ok….lol

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Ginger, I like how you think!!!!

  12. evlqn says:

    Love me some Olympians! Zeus should be proud!!

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Eviqn, Zeus is proud and Hera’s happy! All’s well on Mt. Oly!

  13. Lori Howe says:

    excellent views to finish up the Olympics…

Due to Mt. Olympus technical restraints, we've implemented a maximum 1200 character response length. If you have a problem with this, call Zeus. It's all his fault!
