The first penguin
Recently, I had the opportunity to don a penguin costume and jump into a pool of icy cold water, all in the name of a good cause. I, and about 100 others, braved near-zero temperatures to take turns diving into a frosty pool (really an extra large refuse dumpster) to help raise money for Special Olympics.

Special Olympics bowler: I can beat the president!
UPDATE 4:40 P.M.
So, President Barack Obama thinks he bowls like a competitor in the Special Olympics?

He’d like to go to the White House and show the president a thing or two about how to roll strikes.
