More Men's Curling on the Olympics tonight. Can't wait. And later there's
something even better - Women's Curling. Why are there two separate types?
Don't
the rocks weigh the same? Speed is definitely not an issue, so strength
shouldn't matter. Maybe it all comes down to who can operate the broom
with more
skill, in which case the women might win.

Sure is a nice sport to watch. Gives one plenty of reading time.

I think the brooms melt the ice so the rock will slow down, pull to one side or
the other, or increase/decrease spin.

I've about used up all my taping time. Now I'll have to watch it live, with
commercials, for a couple days.

Maybe we could get together, put all our tapes on a DVD, and sell the Olympics
Curling 2010 DVD. We'd get rick quick, I'm sure. Maybe we'd have to give NBC a
cut, but probably not much.

Just think. All 153 hours of curling on one DVD. Wow.
