« Macedonian Olympic update »
With former Bowling Green student, current Case Western student and long-time Macedonian sympathizer Andrea Vasilevski in town, it was up to see how well the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia fared in the Olympics:
Fifteen participants, no medals. Then again, as the old saying goes: in Macedonia, medal wins you.
Countries that did win at least one bronze:
Eritrea
Mongolia
Syria
Trinidad (and possibly Tobago, we'll do some more research)
United Arab Emirates
Cameroon (which I believe is a coconut cookie)
Iran (as heard in the Flock of Seagulls song. "Iran so far away!")
