Just thought I would start a thread which didn't have deep philosophical overtones so that we all can have fun with the new forum software. Based upon personal experience, I will start a list of “You know you are a swimmer when …” with the following:
You know you are a swimmer when you leave work in the rain and you can smell the chlorine coming off of your hair.
Anyone care to add to the list?

That picture makes her look like a bobblehead.

Ingenious! I never would have thought of that. Does it work? For some reason I thought my eyes were watering from inhaling the fumes through my nose. The more I think about it, the less sense that makes.
I am trying this tonight!
Yes, I must admit, it does work. My kids got a kick of of that when I did it.
