Holy Moly, Swimtastic Swimming!!!!

I spend most Saturdays in a hammock, usually leafing through the latest Galaxy of Mailbox Values™ and sipping a mojito. I won't lie - it's a good life. But, a few Saturdays ago, mid-mojito Rocky walked up to me and said, "Dad, I'd like to take swimming classes."

I was shocked! I mean why swimming over, say, shot putting?? No matter. In my tireless quest to be the perfect father I've decided that whatever Rocky wants, he will get. So, Rocky wanted swimming lessons? Well, Rocky got 'em.

All it took was a quick trip down to the Hollywood "Y", a couple of greased palms, and before you know it we were havin' a gay ol' time!

And we're off! Take a close look at the action here. In fact, pay close attention to the great distance between us (second team from right) and the rest of the miserable losers in the class - There's a good three feet between us and the rest of the herd! Turns out not only did Rocky have an interest in swimming, but a natural ability on par with some of our beloved Earth's most precious aquatic animals! The kid is like a goddamned mako shark! Who knew??!!

And a champion is born! Seriously, this baby is like a combination of Greg Louganis and the Submariner. We've just completed the first four week session and will start the next session this Saturday. Look out world!!!
