I know Michigan is a long way away from upstart [sic] NY, but.Quickest, and shortest way from Buffalo to Lansing is straight across Ontario, Canada! So I get to cross into and out of Canada on my way there and back. Get to go through customs a grand total of four times! Don't know how it will be for you two, if you will take the southern route round Lake Erie, but for me, it's through the home of the Gold Medal Canadians!

Max: in accord with the Shar'ia I have cut my own hand off.Don't do it, Max; we need you to type! If you cut off your hand as punishment, it would be a clear case of your plagairism victimizing your public!

Jo, curling may be a lot of things, but exciting? The New Zealanders were going to send a team, but when they went to practice on the Ida Dam they lost their stones in the water. They'd got the curling and the whisky-drinking in the wrong order and forgot the ice bit.
As for the skeleton bobsleigh, I'm finally coming around to the notion that Richard Dworkin's selfish gene theory may hold some water, but doesn't go far enough. I prefer the stupid gene theory, meownself. Sliding down a hill on half a tea tray at 100kmh ... yeah, right!

Oooooo, W'ON that sounds like a challenge to me. You better be careful, you're talking to two women who know what an off-side is. ************************************************************************************* Oh, I forgot to answer you before about my use of goaler instead of goalie. You caught me in an anglicism - an incorrect turn of phrase appropriating words belonging to the English language. Before the "Office of the French language" came marching into power, English words were often used to describe items...tire (instead of pneu), muffler (silencieux), puck (rondelle), goal (but). In French, to describe the person who is doing an action, the suffix "eur" is added - thus goaleur came into existence and subsequently slangily said as goaler. We should actually use gardien de but, however it is sometimes hard to break bad habits. Shhhhh - the Office would be seriously ticked off if they knew
