This is too good to be true

To this day, one of the strangest things in the history of the world is Arnold Schwarzenegger's career path. From steroid-using bodybuilder to the world's biggest action star to governor of California, which is still one of the most unbelievable things ever. To that list of bizarre triumphs Schwarzenegger can add Olympic torch carrier.
As California's "green governor," Schwarzenegger has forged a relationship with British Columbia's "green premier" Gordon Campbell and Vancouver's "green mayor" Gregor Robertson, leading to his selection as torch carrier. Despite zero Canadian heritage, Schwarzenegger will join Canadian heroes such as Steve Nash (two time NBA MVP), Walter Gretzky (father of Wayne Gretzky), and Michael Bublé (singer my mom really likes).
Even more perplexing is that Schwarzenegger will carry the torch on Friday morning, a scant twelve hours before the Opening Ceremony begins, meaning that an Austro-American politician will be a major figure during one of Canada's finest moments. If in a few years Arnold Schwarzenegger is somehow the Prime Minister of Canada, I will not be surprised.
