The Sky's the Limit

Have you ever watched a Ski Jumping exhibition? Its pretty awesome. People being projected 40 feet into the air, head-on, while their bodies maintain an erect "V" formation. At least, that's how its supposed to be performed to rake in the big points. I've never done it myself, but I can only imagine that it must be a very exhilarating experience. You see, I've always wanted to fly. To transcend the law of gravity and to fly about, perusing terra firma in all its microscopic glory. While that may never happen (until Mach V suits are invented) I'm pretty sure being catapulted into the air, feeling light as a feather, is the next best thing.

Turning to reality, all eyes are on Austrian Wunderkind Gregor Schlierenzauer. The 20 year old phenom has already raked up 28 World Cup victories; including five in 09. The only prize that has eluded him is Olympic Gold. Will this be his year, and how much potential does this young man possess? The sky's the limit...
