of course, sometimes when things seem to repetative and normal, i go to school in a poncho and moccasins and spandex polka dot pants, and of course an umbrella hat. Because, you can't just do the same thing everyday, who wants that

Anyone seen the winter olympics sport where they get a stock or something, then they lunge it on ice and 4 guys sweep infront of it to keep it going.

i dunno why but the word shot comes to mind shot something maybe..]

anyways i think they need to can that sport.

uh...stock? do you mean rock? thats called curling, and its a very popular sport for people to watch, even if you dont think so.

i dunno what its called but they sweep in front of it when a guy lunges like a little ufo looking thing and theres a triangle at the end. for points like hopscotch on crack.

i just told you what it was calling. curling. they slide a rock across the ice while their teamates sweep the ice to keep it from sticking. the point is to get it closest to the middle circlet to get points. its nothing like hop scotch Rolling Eyes

they can also brush ice shavings into the the path of the sliding thing if it's going too fast.

I'd have trouble with the ice skating part while sweeping... lol. So to me, if it has a set way to win and involves physical activity, then I usually call it a sport.

I'm 14 years old, going to be a sophomore in September at a crappy public school where people can't name the planets in the solar system...

I spend most of my time talking to my girlfriend on IM (I don't play much Diablo anymore), listening to music, and maybe doing the occasional odd program in BASIC or some HTML, both of which I haven't done in years.

Hmmm...I'm probably going to major in chemistry, graduate early possibly, go to college, blah blah blah.

When the brooms sweep the ice faster, the friction on the ice gets weaker, and the ice kind of melts a tad, making the rock go faster. I think curling is EXTREMELY boring, but I think canadians watch it more than americans do because it's a canadian sport.

And there's more strategy and rules involved than just getting it close to the middle of the target Wink

Maybe he's talking about "shot put" in the summer olympics Wink

DAMNIT Canada get more medals going!
