Olympic diet plan

Last night, as I was watching “Ready to fly”, a documentary about a female Park City Nordic jumper that was at the center of the fight to get women jumping in the Olympics, I was reminded that what's choking the current Olympics is the growing number of events, and this reminded me of a policy we follow in our home.

Since we have began to live in smaller houses with limited living space, we've enacted a rule against bloating that goes pretty much like this: If we want a new object, an existing one as to get out! On that basis, here is what we ought to go with managing the number of Olympics events:

1. Cut down on the number of Winter Olympics events, from 98 in Sochi, to 50 (see my recent blog). This might have to be done gradually to prevent a paralyzing revolution

2. I there's pressure to add a new event, get rid of an existing one.

3. Apply the same treatment for the Summer Games

4. Enjoy a simpler program that is much easier to understand and follow!
