Kelly's World - Merlene, it dun!

Every now and then, you hear things that make you scratch your head and go, 'seh wha!'. That was my reaction when I heard that Merlene Ottey, yes, she's still alive, was attempting to qualify for a record-eight Olympic Games. Now, why, oh why, at the age of about 154...
