8/17/08 - The American cemented his place as the greatest swimmer - and perhaps sportsman - in history by completing a perfect record of eight victories from eight swims, seven of them in world-record time. - Daily News

Eight events. Eight gold. Seven world records, including breaking his own world mark in three of them. - cnn.com

Last night Michael Phelps won his final medal of the 2008 Olympics, his 8th for these games (14th overall) that began on 8/8/08; the Chinese lucky number. I can't think of a single cynical thing to say about that -- it just ROCKS!

Michael, you make me happy.

I am really impressed by Phelps's physical and mental powers. Individually, he's managed to accumulate more medals in these games than my entire country!
