Thank you very much for your letter of February 24, 2010 concerning the question if alligator is acceptable to eat during the Lenten Season.
Yes, the alligator is considered in the fish family and I agree with you, God has created a magnificent creature that is important to the state of Louisiana and it is considered seafood.

Here's your yearly reminder that an alligator is a reptile, except during Lent when it's a fish.

Someone had asked me previously about differences from monobob to 2-woman, and here they are side by side, with Kaillie driving both

You'll notice the area in front of Kaillie is about the same, but the back end of the mono is shorter. Also, the position in the sled, w/ her far back in mono (cont)

It's wild looking at the splits.

Gus Schumacher's first two legs were only 14th and 13th best, then he went Super Saiyan on the anchor leg and posted the best time there.

Wisconsin connection? There is one. Schumacher was born in Madison. #MilanCortina2026

Elsewhere, would not have had the U.S. men's medaling in XC skiing team sprint instead of the women, but Ben Ogden is a budding star, guys. Gus Schumacher ain't bad either.

Some people are just big event performers.

Mancuso also had five world Championship medals, though no golds.

Breezy Johnson has won three golds at world championships or Olympics in the last calendar year. Has never won a World Cup race.

Mancuso - 14 WC seasons, 7 wins, 36 podiums - 4 Olympic medals (1 G, 2 S, 1 B)

Vonn - 21 WC seasons, 84 wins, 145 podiums - 3 Olympic medals (1 G, 2 B)

Shiffrin - 16 (!) WC seasons, 108 wins, 166 podiums - 4 Olympic medals (3 G, 1 S)

Still, #MilanCortina2026 will end with the crazy notion that Julia Mancuso is still tied for most American female alpine skiing medals despite skiing in the shadow of Vonn and overlapping the beginning of Shiffrin's career.

That Shiffrin Team Combined ski, smh.

(Olympic) Legacy-wise, that is massive for Mikaela Shiffrin, who would have four golds if not for the course setters at the 2018 combined making the slalom course bizarrely short. #MilanCortina2026

The bright side is free skates have been chaotic here so Glenn and Levito can definitely make a move in the free skate...gonna be difficult without a bit of help though. Have to be near-perfect. #MilanCortina2026

One American in real medal contention after the ladies' short program is about right. Two of them are capable when on their game, but I've seen enough to know the mental game tends to wreak havoc. #MilanCortina2026
