The physique of a swimmer is as close to physical pefection as one can get, imo.

Love the ilial Olympic tattoo visible in the pic linked at "zen."
Sharp eyes. I hadn't noticed.
Ann, thanks for directing my attention to his fine pelvis, but I don't see it.
Um, he's, a taut young thing isn't he. Very, very taut.

Phelps isn't that bad...I just watched him win gold. WTF why aren't they wearing speedos!?!?! THe new outfits are borrrrrring.
I generally think about factoring large numbers on my daily bicycle commute.
It's the Bruce Springsteen underbite.

Underbite cancels Overbite.
