Well lets hope PA is listening.

I wouldn't say she's not cultivated just because she has no university degree. Albert's younger sister doesn't have one neither ...

Has PA ever dated a woman with a University Degree?

CW might be a fine wife for PA. Only he can tell really. But, I am a bit confussed about her "training" for 2008. She would be a bit old for it wouldn't she? Kind of sounds like a line. Someone else made a similar comment in an earlier post. Any ideas on how serious this might be?

Leah...You are right -- she could be the one and maybe not. PA is the only one who knows for sure.

There are posts on swimming websites saying that last fall CW rejoined a prestigious swimming club in SA in order to re-focus her swimming career. She'll be 30 1/2 in '08 -- probably much older than the other swimmers. Per the article in which she says she is training for Peking, she claims that injuries have kept her away from serious training but she never really stopped. It's just a wait and see game.

I'm not sure if her sudden "disappearance" from events with PA is in response to the media frenzy focusing more on his love life and less on his relationship as an IOC member. She was talking pretty freely to the press for a while which is a big no-no.

So jealous you are in HI...it's FREEZING in Boston. Aloha.
