I had a Labat shop at 15min from my house. They closed it and they do nails now. Harder to digest

What I like about Canada:

-Curling (I've never played it before, but man, do I love watching it on CBC.)
-For the most part, very down-to-Earth, open people.
-Beer (Duh!!!)
-Hockey!!
-Beautiful landscape
-Being able to put up with (well, somewhat...) the U.S.
-CN Tower (walking on the glass floor was quite the experience, although I couldn't manage to produce the testosterone to push myself to jump on it like some kids were!!!
)

GAM: I bet!!! When I watch them take off, it looks like they are quite limber and stretched out. So, I believe your pain. And, I'll take your word on the pants. Haha. BTW- how hard is it? And, did you use "scrubbers" (proper terminology?)?

I would definately love to give it a shot in the future. So, I guess I would have to make the drive (eh, an hour) to the boarder and find a place to play. Is it hard to find places to play? Sorry, but what I see on CBC is essentially all I know about curling. Sad... yes, indeed.

Man, it's been a long time since I've been in Canada. Work = the ownage of me

I am surprised there hasn't been talk about a JBO curling team. Hahaha. Talk to you later.

as long as I could use an industrial floor polisher rather than a pushbroom, i'd try curling...although i don't understand it at all...

And GAM, i was talking about Hockey, even though lacrosse is cool...

^^^ And El-Lay, Miami and Houston.. t3h b3wbag3!

Bob: They're just called brooms... at least now they're not the cornhusk brooms we had in Highschool. although, they made a great sound... Watch Men With Brooms if you want to see what I'm talking aboot.

Black pants because the knee you steady yourself on usually gets wet. Jeans aren't all that great for playing even though they're comfy. Also, you want stretchy material because you're basically trying to launch 44 pound hunks of granite... joy

If you're looking for a sheet, you can go to <a href="Http://www.curling.ca">Curling.ca</a> or go to <a Href="http://www.canada411.com">Canada 411</a> and look up curling clubs, but most rec associations have them... I know there's a few in Michigan, Team USA is from there

If you go to curling, you'll get the rules of the game, but like most sports, there's a big difference between the places of play. Just Ice tending and all that jazz.
