What's funny about that is my company is now part of a British company that was formed by the privatization of the Ministry of Defence's research establishment (a bit like making a company out of Wright Patterson AFB, Patuxent River NAS, NASA, the National Labs, you name it).  They chose a name that starts and ends with a Q for that very reason.

Yeah, I was wondering what happened to the "happy legs" as well.  That's classic and Mike's perfect signature thing.  Kind of like Big Papi (Ortiz) spitting on his batting gloves before every pitch.

Hey Todd. Thanks for posting the pic. Leaving the ground, BAD! That would be why I was out in front every time.

Great to see you again.

Steve, as you well know, knock-off bars used to be the rule and the standard.  The bars that are in play these days are just to make the athletes happy (higher marks,) keep the audiences entertained (less time spent replacing the bar,) and make life easier for the Games' crew (eliminates trying to figure out how to replace that bar waayyy up there!)

Had l not been "retired" when the uprights were replaced at the "Claw," we could very easily still be using the old knock-offs there.
