I saw swimmer Aaron Piersol (backstroke guy won gold on relay medley and individual backstroke) on Conan O'Brien last night. I have been very impressed with how likeable, down-to-earth and hard working these Olympians come across on TV interviews. He brought one of his gold medals and it reminded me of show-and-tell at school, it was so cute.

He also talked about his insane diet, how much he eats (18 pancakes in one sitting!) and how even so, it's actually hard to keep weight on. Conan gave him this incredulous look when he said that and goes, "You know that's just a mockery to the American people!" It was pretty funny. He came off as a genuinely really nice guy with a sense of humor.

OH, you are amazing for finding that! I looked but couldn't find it on youtube. See, your obsession pays off!

I'm glad I've gone back to watching Conan again.

I hate looking at the comments. Nastia and Shawn are about 16-18 years old and there are some people talking about how hot they are. Doesn't surprise me though, these same people like Hayden P., Vanessa Hudgens, Emma Watson etc. At least Alicia S. is 20 and looks like woman. Shawn is so petite, and Nastia while looks her age still...we're the same age and I find it creepy.

Jason Lezak will be on Conan tonight. I believe Nastia will be on Conan soon as well.

Oprah will have shitload of olympians on her show tomorrow. Anyone's gonna watch? I'll be at work and I can't stomach her anyway. I hope aaron will at least get to speak for 20 seconds
