thought of the day

here's my thought of the day...

who invented the biathlon?
I mean, they ski around with a gun on their back then shoot at targets. who thought that was a good idea, a fun idea, or even a normal thing to do? it's weird.

and if you were really wondering: it was formed in Norway in 1861 as a way to promote national defense at the local level. (thanks Wikipedia.)

oh, and after I typed up this post I saw this:

have a good Wednesday!
