Tom in Olympic Coverage
Tue February 7th 2006 @ 7:23PM - Cindy - Tom Welling - 2 Comments
Okay, okay ... I know what you're thinking: There's no way Tom is at the Olympics, 8,000 miles from Vancouver. After all, he's a busy guy and wouldn't have time to ditch out to Turin to see mad men go downhill at 60 miles an hour, or tiny girls perform miracles of motion on the ice. But, as odd as it may sound, he still got a mention in some Olympic coverage.
A New York Daily News columnist, Filip Bondy, has a diary about his trek to Turin to, well, see maniacs go downhill at insane and body busting speeds. It turns out that Bondy's compatriot had booked the reporters into a hotel closer to France than to the Turin Olympic events. So Filip, being an overly-resourceful reporter, managed to book himself into a room at an apartment. The apartment's owner, Antonio, arrived and showed Filip to his room: A room normally occupied by his 13-year-old daughter, Sonia.
It turns out that Sonia has a "half-naked" poster of Tom Welling on her wall. Good girl. I know that if I had a half naked image of Tom Welling it would certainly go on my wall, but I doubt I would have a reporter from the New York Daily News write about it. Okay, so I do have some shirtless images of Tom that I would love to put up on my wall (Or do shirtless pictures really qualify as 'half-naked'?) but I don't think my husband would be as understanding as Sonia's father, so I'll restrain myself.

That is too funny, Cindy. I wish I had a shirtless pic of Tom. Keep up the great work!

Cindy, this article really made me laugh. I would have never guessed I had something in common with a 13-year-old girl in France.
Being a mother of two boys, one of them a teenager, I have pictures of Tom Welling on my walls too. But since I'm a very nice wife, I keep them in the laundry room so that I don't hurt my husband's feelings. Maybe you could try that?
My husband doesnt mind, he even bought me a beautiful framed picture of Tom for Christmas. What a guy!
