Everyone was talking about the Beijing 2008 Olympics this summer.
Phelps and others stole the headlines with victory after victory.
However, in the midst of this global competition, another competition was completely ignored by the mainstream media.
It is now my pleasure to bring you exclusive coverage of the InfoMedia, Inc. First Annual Flying Monkey Office Olympics.
The sporting world will never be the same...
There's nothing like flying monkeys to decompress after a hard week at work.
I've got a great team and want to salute them for their good sportsmanship (even though I didn't win...)
It's Del.icio.us!
Furl It!

You are such a nut, Joel.
My kind of guy!
Wish I worked in your office.
I think the Flying Monkey Olympics
should be a national event! ;)
I love the way you mix
fun with marketing.
It was great meeting and interviewing
you in Chicago! Let's do it again soon.
Hugs,

So nice to see office staff having fun together also.
Keep up the great work everyone, and I trust other groups get some good ideas from here also.

Speaking of Olympics I used your templates from the
Instant Resale Templates and made 3 real
Olympic blogs.
Your templates worked real well for getting
Adsense clicks. I made a ton of money even
though I started them late.
Check em out!

That was funnnny, I bet I had almost as much fun watching that video as you did making it! it's too bad none of the monkeys actually competed in Beijing, that would definitely make the Olympics more entertaining.

Cool video :)

DUDE this is awesome!
I recall seeing a monkey flying through the air in Chicago as well.
Great stuff guys...Can't wait to get out there.
Talk soon,

Joel, thats an exmaple of how a work environment should be like, work hard and play hard.

Hey Joel,
It is a travesty of justice when the media boycott such an important sporting event.
Lets hope they DON'T boycott my charity event, to raise $1Million for poor children around the globe.
Cheers from Downunder,
Greg
PS. It was great meeting you on recent trip to Sydney!

Are you sure all the monkeys were old enough to compete? Bet they were all made in China!!! Funny video!

for the third contest, the winning flying monkey just went into official orbit around the earth..... ;-)
Lots of cool fun. Looking forward to The Flying Joel when Schwarzie visits your offices. :-D
Have a good week, and good to see you're having fun.

Your all nuts and you will all have nightmares that the monkeys are getting revenge on by shooting you all into a dumpster, heed my warning, the monkeys are coming.
