Head Slapper of the Week

In this time where it seems everything from BMX biking to synchronized dancing is an Olympic sport, I have found one activity that is not…. yet.

In New York this week the National Texting Championships were held.  Austin Wierschke, a 17 year old from Wisconsin (insert your own commentary here) won the $50K check as the National Texting Champion…for the second time.

  1. I guess all that texting is preferable to how most Wisconsin residents spend their time -- and certainly not as hard on the liver.

    1. Actually at 0:27 the commentator says his age, name and state of residence which is New York, not Wisconsin.
