Interview With Man Who Punched Shark to Save His Dog

Those of you who have kept up with my blog have probably read about the Florida man who punched a shark to save his dog. It's always so much better to hear the story straight from the mouth of the source. Here's the CBS video interview of this amazing story.



And for those of you who feel bad for the poor dog getting attacked, here's a video of a dog attacking a shark. It kind of levels the playing field. The owners of this dog seem more negligent than heroic. But he seems to be fending for himself pretty well.

Michael Phelps Shatters World Records

Michael Phelps made history this week in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. He swam for a perfect 8 gold medals in a single Olympics. This shattered the old record by one gold. His final gold medal was especially nerve wracking because his last race was a relay. He had to depend on 3 of his other teammates to take the gold with him. If any of them were to fail, he wouldn't have won his gold. He also got to show the French team what he was made of after they rudely mocked him before his swim. He is not quickly becoming very famous after making the world record. I hope he has a big trophy case to put all that gold in.
