Alexa Leary wins gold and breaks world record twice on day seven at Paris Paralympics
High-octane house music has propelled rising Australian swim star Alexa Leary to a Paralympic gold medal and fulfilled a prophecy set out by a fortune teller three years ago.

After setting a 59.60 world record in the morning session heat at La Defense Arena in Paris, Leary went one better to claim gold in the 100-metre freestyle S9 with a time of 59.53.

Leary fell off her bike in a near-fatal accident in 2021, leaving her with brain damage and several long-term injuries.

More than once, doctors informed her parents, Russ and Belinda, they should prepare to say goodbye to their daughter.

Etc ...

Good news for Mr.& Mrs. Blustnmtn: We are officially relocated to The Catskill Mtn. region of NY. We closed on the sale of our home on Long Island on Wednesday and drove to our log home that evening.

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” -Samuel Adams
