'BONG ON'

Thank you for Roy Clancy's Feb. 4 column about Michael Phelps smoking 
weed. It is "bong" on. Phelps didn't do anything different than his 
peers. I'm a 33-year-old executive assistant and still party like a 
rock star on occasion. If the do-gooders out there seriously think 
his image is tarnished by a picture of him at a party smoking from a 
bong, they are sadly mistaken. Not only will his upcoming event be 
well attended, (who doesn't want to see this man in the flesh?), but 
I for one will continue to buy products he endorses. The man is 
nothing short of AMAZING! If any one of his sponsors decides to drop 
him, I won't hesitate to stop spending money with them. Thanks for 
reminding everybody Phelps is a 23-year-old swimmer who wants to have 
a little fun and be social -- something not easily accomplished when 
you have your head underwater eight hours a day.
