they take turns throing "stones" or "rocks" down an ice shoot, each getting 10(i think) throws per "end" kinda like a round. they play 10 ends and who ever has more stones closer than their opponents closest stone gets that many points... i think. im still learning.. the brooms they use help smooth and clean the ice to "curl" the stone, or give it an arc kinda curve to it and speed up and slow down how fast it goes... i dunno. i picked up what i know over the last 24-28 hrs

I caught some of it before I went to bed this morning. I just don't think it's a sport. It's just lawn bowling on ice.

I haven't stopped watching the olympics. I love watching them. I'm watching the Womens Hockey. USA vs SWEEDEN. Your women are fucking fast and pretty good. Should be a good USA/CANADA final
