Ron Paul Opens for Michael Jackson; Michael Phelps: Mutant?

Whew, I bet that title is going to be confusing.
I'm not sure if there are any big enough Michael Jackson fans that read this who will even get this, but here we go anyway:



Click on it to actually see the comic.

That's right, I called it a comic. I make a web comic. I've been wanting to do it this way for a while now, and low and behold, it comes. Hopefully I will either have a partner in crime, or he will have his own web comic sometime soon. I actually do attempt to draw freehand, and I might upload those attempts here and there.

So I feel excited, because a lot of people(relatively) have left comments on my blog, and I'm leaving comments on their blogs, and it seems like a big social do-hickey is evolving in our click. I have a really good idea for a Novella, not a long short story, because I am stuck up. Anywho, look for that on your cyber-shelves come whenever I actually have time to finish it.

Cyber-shelves sounds so naughty.

So, Michael Phelps(Olympic Swimmer, Broke record for most Gold Medals by an individual athlete) is kind of insane, and I don't think he is really a human. To prove this I went fact hunting on Wikipedia, which is the source of all truth. Low and behold, I find what I am looking for:
Physique and lifestyle

Phelps has a body particularly suited to swimming. He has a long, thin torso with arms which span 6 feet 7 inches (200 cm), disproportionate with his height of 6 feet 4 inches (190 cm). However, he has relatively short legs which reduce resistance through the water, but despite this he has size 14 feet (49.5 Europe) and double-jointed ankles. He can extend his ankle beyond the point of a ballet dancer which enables him to whip his feet for maximum thrust.

It goes on to say:
According to an article in The Guardian, Phelps eats around 12,000 calories each day, or about 6 times more than the average adult male.[14] Leslie Bonci, the University of Pittsburgh Director of Sports Nutrition, says that eating that many calories a day is "almost impossible".[15] She estimates that his intake is closer to 6,000 calories per day.

WHAT THE HELL? I don't care if he does eat 6,000 calories, where does he put it? What does he eat? Solid Lard?

I don't know if anyone has hummingbird feeders, but you should buy one, they are fun to watch.

I totally agree. Phelps is a mutant. He is freakin amazing. He also swims 2500 meters before each race (this is AT the Olympics), then like, 1000 more AFTER the race is over. Crazy. He is incredible.

And what the heck? Hummingbird Feeders? Ha ha!
