SI.com - Olympics - With lofty goals, Phelps in 'biggest year of life' - Friday January 18, 2008 9:36PM'It took a while for me to get my motion back in my wrist,' he said. 'If I could live in a bubble right now I probably would, so I couldn't get hurt, I couldn't get in trouble, I couldn't do anything but swim, eat and sleep.'

Be safe. Be careful. But don't fall into a bubble -- as they are slippery.
