Olympic curling 25.2

aunty jack · 03-14-10, 04:58 PM

it was a cult t-v comedy series in australia in the 1970s. the main character was a cross-dressing, overweight, motorbike-riding pantomime dame with violent tendencies - but a heart of gold.

i was just a kid at the time, and the show was banned in my god-fearing conservative family, so i guess this is my revenge.

pointless, i know. just like curling...

Wow...you Aussie's are progressive! Thanks for the explanation jack!

Curling: I don't get it either.

aunty jack · 03-15-10, 08:41 AM

no worries. i cop a fair bit of grief over this avatar, so in hindsight it probably wasn't a wise idea.

nevermind.

so... what's your back story swinging j? apart from your penchant for humphrey bogart and admirable dedication to obscure winter sports?

Jacky I am actually a freelance writer, podcaster......I have written content and podcasted for various offshore sites although I am not strictly limited to that realm. I just started a website giving out my daily selections, humor, etc...I cannot provide the link but what I can do, I think, is invite you to read an article I wrote a few days ago for SBR regarding Ladanian Tomlinson. You might notice my website next to my name when you click here to read my article

As for Curling, I know virtually nothing about the sport but am amazed it's a sport at all. I have made a vow that I shall post in this section each morning until I have nothing left to say about the subject. I like your style Jacky.

Why watch curling? So I can watch people in worse shape than I, be called athletes.

Swinging Johnson · 03-17-10, 02:34 PM

I cannot believe the advances they've made in brooms over the last decade.

Swinging Johnson · 03-18-10, 10:09 AM

Curling: Watch it for the fights because nothing says good times like 2 men fighting with brooms.

Swinging Johnson · 03-18-10, 11:13 PM

Curling: Because what's more natural than ice, stones and brooms.

Swinging Johnson · 03-20-10, 06:45 AM

New business idea. Protective equipment for curlers. I hope that does better than my elegant line of fur sinks back in the 80's.

Swinging Johnson · 03-21-10, 06:31 AM

Curling: When cage fighting just isn't enough.

benjy · 03-21-10, 08:17 AM

SJ - you were fading there for a bit but the last two were gold.

Swinging Johnson · 03-22-10, 09:44 AM

Thanks Benjy.......I sleep and wake to meet or exceed your lofty expectations.

Curling: Giving every man hope that a spot on the Olympic team is never out of the question.

Swinging Johnson · 03-22-10, 11:36 PM

Curling: Because America needs another sport.

Swinging Johnson · 03-24-10, 09:53 AM

Curling: Mayhem on Ice.

Swinging Johnson · 03-25-10, 09:16 AM

Curling: Because Straightening just never caught on.

Swinging Johnson · 03-26-10, 07:54 AM

Curling: Because men sweeping ice just feels right.

Swinging Johnson · 03-27-10, 12:18 AM

Curling: A man's game but a woman's name.

Swinging Johnson · 03-28-10, 08:33 PM

Curling: Because Formula One is just too damn slow.

Swinging Johnson · 03-28-10, 11:02 PM

Curling: Two brooms...one stone...and nothing but mayehm.

Swinging Johnson · 03-30-10, 06:53 AM

Curling: For those blessed with the skill, a ticket to financial freedom.

Swinging Johnson · 03-31-10, 10:43 AM

Curling: Better to be sweeping ice than smoking it.

kingsr · 03-31-10, 10:52 AM

Worthless thread

Curling: Because it beats watching the Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs drop another match.

Swinging Johnson · 04-02-10, 08:14 AM

Curling: Two brooms, one stone and a whole lotta attitude.

Swinging Johnson · 04-03-10, 01:34 PM

Curling: Because being an expert has never been so easy.

diamond · 04-03-10, 02:51 PM

Curling is ok, to watch every 4th year.

ACoochy · 04-03-10, 05:07 PM

Curling, for when you have all the free time in the world, and then some...

Swinging Johnson · 04-04-10, 03:52 AM

Curling: More fun than the Bunny at Easter.

lebronjames0 · 04-04-10, 12:29 PM
