Olympic Shirtlessness

In honor of the Olympic Games that will open tonight in London, I had to post this video of the US Swim Team lip syncing to "Call Me Maybe," another version of which was featured right here last month.  I don't know what it is that makes this song so conducive to shirtlessness, but I like it.  It's definitely my July song!  The above video could have featured some more shirtlessness, but given that these people are focused on breaking world records and the like, I'm going to cut them some slack.

Other news in swimming, apparently the original IMS Poster Boy, Daniel Craig, and his shirtless scene(s) in "Casino Royale" have affected fashion in a positive way in that now the most popular swim trunks for men are modeled after his square cut trunks from the movie.  I'm pleased to know that our cause is even having an effect on fashion.  Never doubt the power of the cause, my dear IMS members.  Read more about its positive effects here.

The Summer Olympics are always a good time for shirtlessness.  I'm sorry to say that I will be in India for most of them, but I hope that you will keep the flame alive.  Until then, I am...

Yours in shirtlessness,
Nandita
President
IMS
