LENOVO OLYMPIC TORCH DAY

Lenovo, a worldwide Olympic Partner, and one of my personal sponsors designed the Olympic Torch to be used in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Torch Relay. Lenovo makes thinkpad notebook computers, like this sweet one I'm typing on right now. Since Toronto wasn't on the list of cities to be visited during the official relay, Lenovo managed to get the torch to our great city for a press day with the Special Olympics. Representing Canada's 31 000 Special Olympians is 4 time Gold Medallist in power lifting, Russel Gerber. This guy is strong! He can deadlift over 400lbs! Russell and I got to hang out with the Torch all day, do interviews and sign autographs for all our fans. Check out all of Russell's hardware hangin' off his neck... 4 Golds!

A big thanks to Lenovo for their incredible support of the Olympic movement.
