i have been reading a lot of the posts herein.... and it has occurred to me... (and this will surely betray my newbie-ness) there are an awful lot of abbreviations and terms used that leave me essentially having no clue what was said.... is there a book out there someplace "swimese for dummies" or the like? i speak several languages, sadly swimese is not yet among them.....
i can swim two miles comfortably, and have energy left over after to go run three miles... but decode the posts on this board?....
any reference/resource suggestions gladly accepted...
thanks.
be,

By the powers vested in me as "you fill in the blank", I hereby officially exonerate you from all responsibility for this relay mishap Donna....As a fellow breaststroke hater, I think I speak for all non-breaststrokers a like when I say this. Clearly the idiot (probably some British breaststroker I'll bet) who put you in the relay swimming breaststroke is the one who deserves all of the blame!

Alright you guys...put up or shut-up. Holy Spitz! If I can do Bugfly and IM at a meet..you can all attempt the divine...and swim how the Goodhew intended.
If you call yourself a swimmer, you can do a little of all the strokes, for
Wilkie's sake !
