Olympic update - Curling rocks!

OK, time for a brief bout of edumacation from my adopted home (Canada).  Jonathan Coulton has released a song about Curling - it's quite catchy and I think you'll like it.  But you need to know more about curling to truly appreciate it.  First, you should rent Men with Brooms.  Or maybe first, cause it's just a click away, you could visit the CBC Olympics page about Curling.  Oh I know, you don't care about curling, but the movie's quite good (one of the highest-grossing Canadian films ever, I believe), and once you listen to Jonathan's song you're definately going to want to hear more, which fortunately you can!  I personally recommend A Laptop Like You and Ikea.  And Skullcrusher Mountain.  And for the true geek, Mandelbrot Set ;-)  Relevance to distance education: None.
