Flashes of Panic

It’s time to depart on my barnstorming tour of the North. It’s as good a time as any to figure out if my passport has been revoked.

My brother has stopped short of promising a world record in the 100m fly*, but he’s definitely indicated that he expects to see one. I’ve seen world records at world championships before, and the first one—Michael Johnson for 400m in Seville ‘99—probably happened faster than this one (if it happens) is likely to.

I’ve only ever been to Canada for sports events.

* Eeugh: FINA does all their results in PDFs. The IAAF site is much, much better.
