10:03: Okay its US vs. Sweden.. here we go!
10:05: Okay, some portly guy threw a round stone, and now there's yelling.
10:06: Aparently the ice is dirty, some guy is sweeping furiously
10:10: more sweeping, more yelling
10:12: the points at the top of the screen changed so apparently someone scored
10:15: funny commercial... How can a gecko sell insurance?!? its just too much!
10:20: overhead shot of 2 concentric circles with round rocks scattered about and losers debating what to do next (go home! u suck!)
10:25: Holy shit! Some guy in a leather jacket with slicked back hair just fucking punched a guy in the throat and broke another guy's neck!
10:26: I apologize for the last post apparently my 1 year old daughter stepped on the remote and changed the channel to Spike TV showing a Steven Segal movie. It was a pretty sweet scene though.
10:28: Yeah, somebody is yelling "Hard, Hard... Hard!" while some dudes are sweeping.. Haha, he said "Hard."
10:35: The numbers atop the screen have changed yet again, aparently someone scored, or the collective wishful thinking of the entire home audience caused the game to actually progress.
10:38: A guy is yelling something in Swedish (most likely "Hard!") and his blonde cronies are sweeping.
11:32: I apparently fell asleep for approximately 50 minutes, the score hasn't changed.
11:40: There's that gecko again... you can't sell car insurance, you're just a lizard..... will you ever learn?
11:45: Sad, sad man pushes circular rock on ice, others sweep.
11:50: more sweeping, more yelling
12:30: What, now there's a duck on an insurance commercial?!? This is too rich! But, he's just a duck, he can't sell supplemental insurance!?! .... or can he!?!
12:43: Swedish guy sweeping at >200 strokes per minute, this is fucking unbelievable!
1:00: I think we won.

I actually have curled (?) before. There is a rink (?) near my house and they gave curling lessons and then there was a beginners tournament. It's pretty fun especially while drinking.
