“Not all athletes are dumb jocks.” That’s especially the case when you’re dealing with world-class rowers who began their careers doing crew for Big Red. Olympic rower Jen Kaido, class of ‘03, is back from Beijing after helping the U.S. finish fifth, just behind Germany and Ukraine in the women’s quadruple sculls. We caught up to her via telephone and chatted about food, studs, and the atmospheric temperament in China.

CornellWatch: It’s been almost a month since you’ve gotten back from Beijing. What is your favorite memory from the games?

Walking into the Bird’s Nest during the closing ceremonies; there were so many people in the stands, cheering, waving flags, it was amazing! I just kept thinking, “This must be how Michael Phelps feels where ever he goes.” It was just awesome to be there with different types of athletes from other countries and know the people in the stands are there to support you.

Jenna Bromberg, pondering new euphemisms in her new place of residence.
Jenna Bromberg, pondering new euphemisms in her new place of residence.
For those freshmen who had the misfortune of matriculating one year too late, I’ll inform ye that Jenna B. was last year’s sex columnist, a blondie with an orange glow who became infamous for her cuttingly honest and colorfully slangy description of her escapades in slutbaggery. We say slutbaggery with (sl)utmost respect, because, in case it wasn’t painfully apparent, we kind of love her. This fall, she’s Jenna Bromberg (Hotel ‘08), works at a webmag/blog called HotelChatter writing reviews and shit, lives in Brooklyn, and has an agent for a book that she can’t/doesn’t want to talk about. Suffice it to say that her “literary aspirations don’t go beyond writing some shit that you can read on a beach.” We caught up with her via AIM–yeah, we keep it classy–and found out that, contrary to whatever parting shots that “Cunnilingus Cowboy” bastard might’ve taken in the Daily Sun, she gives GREAT head.

Click through to find out how the banging goes in NYC, who this damned Cowboy is, and whether his linguistics are quite as cunning as he claims.
