I Am Watching the Olympics (Day 4)

For the sake of full disclosure, the 3-year-old is watching Little Bill, which is about her favorite show these days.

But I will be watching the Olympics soon, and, when I do, I will be particularly interested in these events among the 23 sports in action today:

-- men's 81kg judo, in which Travis Stevens of Bellevue, Wash., has advanced to the semifinals;

-- men's skeet, in which Vincent Hancock of Eatonton, Ga., is bidding right now (!) to repeat as Olympic gold medalist;

-- men's whitewater canoeing, which is pretty fun to watch, and

-- women's team gymnastics and the redemption of Michael Phelps, which I'm sure will dominate NBC's prime-time coverage.
