The show as they say though, must go on, so go ahead and check out what's been happening around Mobile Nations below.

okay... it's a depressing Monday morning without the love A.E. :(

I'm getting out of work early.

Interestingly.... this is one reason I want to go see the Olympics:

British newspaper reporting:

"In a sign of what the world's fittest sportsmen and women get up to in the Olympic village, a record 150,000 free condoms - 15 for each competitor - have been made available to them."
