    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...

    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.

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

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