I do know the object is to have one or more of YOUR "rocks" closest to the center circle at the end of each "end" (which is sort of like an inning in baseball.) Many of the early rocks art set up as blockers to ensure that the final rock or two has a chance to be "scoring" rocks. I'm pretty sure the game was invented by those Canadians who liked ice and beer just fine, but found they couldn't skate very well when they were drinking. The screaming is a direct result of the Fans proving that they too can drink. posted by: dustyjumpwings (reply) post date: 03.19.06 (10:29 am) ....OH. I had nooooo idea what you were talking about until the previous comment. I thought you were talking about curling, as in, arm curls.

May be Paddy knows about curling? posted by: dangerkitty (reply) post date: 03.20.06 (12:43 pm) Reply to: surrogate According to my curling fanatic friend who refuses to take the time to explain the sport but demands that I watch it, it was invented in Scotland and has been played in some form since the 13 century. Centuries later, no one really understands it. posted by: dustyjumpwings (reply) post date: 03.20.06 (6:59 pm) Reply to: dangerkitty Nah, Paddy wouldn't know.
