Cutris Speaks About His Wood
UnAssociated Press
February 23, 2010
People began questioning Cutris, about his decision to award himself a wooden medal in Olympic figure skating. It all came about after Russian figure skater Evgeni Plushenko awarded himself a platinum medal. The main question seems to be, "why did he choose wood?"
In a press conference early this morning, Cutris said that "wood is the best," because it is renewable and because beavers like it. Sporting his new wooden medal, Cutris evoked the image of a true patriot. And why not? This isn't the first time that Cutris' wood has been in the news. He once used wood to promote his novel, "Cottonwood." This is also not the first time that Cutris has been in the Olympics.
After the Press conference was over, many people seemed to agree with Cutris. One man even said out loud, "If you're going to be sporting a medal, you might-as-well be sporting wood!"
