New poll: Opinion on dunking
The new poll asks your opinion on what contests, if any, should immersing food in water be allowed.
In other dunking/eating news, the Deseret News has an article about Stanford basketball player Michelle Harrison, whose big appetite has not impeded her reported ability to dunk:
At the games Harrison is known as “Snacks,” or “that girl from Utah,” by most of the other players and staff. Her nickname was given to her by Abi Olajuwon — daughter of NBA legend Hakeem Olajuwon — after a group of players ate at Applebee’s and Michelle ate twice as much as anyone else.
“She ate it all,” said Olajuwon, who is headed to college at Oklahoma. “She didn’t have a take-out container or anything.”

As much as I would like to see it banned in all contests, such will never be the case, because that would thwart the effort to break speed records in shorter contests. But in most contests of 10 minutes or more, it probably wouldn’t matter, because stomach capacity starts to come into play after about 8 or 9 minutes for most foods, and water / water-based liquid is heavy — a pound per pint.
Good luck everybody. I’m gone for the weekend. Have a good one and a special wish for Ms Rona Conti, the classiest lady to ever associate herself with CE.
I hope to “see” everyone on Tuesday!

We all know Tim is Rhonda, we just don’t want to force an akward confrontation at every contest. Let people say what they want, words really don’t hurt. Tim is a really nice guy in person and his internet writing is just a way of expression that he know is not exceptable in reality.
