Who Likes Curling??

[Dr. Zhivodka]

Ever play "washers?"

Quote from hoodooman:

When I was a kid, we use to play horseshoes. Then one day this stranger comes up and wants to play.

He throws at least one ringer in every two throws, and sometimes he threw two and even three in a row. Then he went away and came back with a case of beer and while playing, drank the whole case.

That finally slowed him down a bit.

Saw him a time or two after that and then he was gone.

Hadn't thought of that story in years up till today and I couldn't help but digress.

Yes. Great game of skill.

Quote from lescor:

I like watching it. Lots of strategy and some incredible shot making skill.

I just went curling with some friends last night for the first time in 20 years. I now have way more respect for the skill involved. It's a lot harder than it looks.

It's not very physically demanding, but that's not the criteria to be included in the olympics.

No? Can I request Stamp Hinging be added to the roster? You know, placing a hinge on the back of a stamp, what collectors do.

Harder than it look's and we can have it performed nude just to make it more interesting.

tetramorium: Go on the net and search for Peter Daniels and the hoodooman. That story and another I wrote is in Practical Speculation by Niederhoffer. Regards
I've got loads of them.
