I know you guys all like hockey, but I've been watching Women's Curling. I know it is nothing more than shuffle board on ice but it looks fun. Plus, The Johnson sisters on the USA team are pretty hot. It's playing on USA network right now.

Curling is a great sport. It gets undue ridicule from the States, but the rest of the world is big on it (well, the colder countries anyway).

It's a blast to play. A lot harder than it looks.

It's actually the most-watched event at the olympics.

The Italians love it especially because it's similar to the Italian game Bocce

I love curling, it must be the CBC influence as a child. Waaaaaaay back when you had an antenna on your TV CBC was one of the about 10 channels we got
