Looks like we got a lot of closet curling fans here. I thought maybe 15 or 20 hits at best. :lol: I love the game.

I think some of the ladies teams have a great start if they wanted to make a calendar. I saw a bunch of them at the airport a few weeks ago.......they were pretty hot. 8)

I'll give the subject a hit.

Even though I'm French Canadian, I love curling (must be because I lived in NS).
Even played it for a while.

As for the changing smoking culture:
I used to work in a financial institution, the tellers served clients while smoking. Smoking on buses, during classes in college. I think that our physics teacher was smoking pot during classes. 8)

There is a calender. :lol:

But no Canadian women participated, maybe because it was nude with curling gear placed in front, at discrete places.

I can see giving up smoking, but giving up the Mountain Due is a bit much.

Your so right. I still long for the days when Bonspiel was a contest to see who could curl the drunkest and you had to sweep the ashes off the sheet before each rock. [drunk] [drunk]

Now the only rocks I got are the ones in my head and my back goes out more than I do.
