The Kansas City Star reports, “U.S. rowing team will use sewage-proof suits at Rio Olympics.”

It’s a month before the start of the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, and each day seemingly brings more disturbing news.

 This is all on top of an Associated Press story from earlier this month that noted “bacteria from human sewage has in all of Rio’s Olympic and Paralympic water venues. They include the Guanabara Bay, the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, where the rowing competitions are to be held.”

American Pie

USA_Freedom_PieA long long time ago

With every paper I’d deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn’t take one more step
