I have to pipe up here and offer up a small story.  I truly intend this to be 
humorous.

I have to admit, I'm not into gaming.  But, normally I don't criticize those 
who are and I understand the attraction it has for some.  We all have things we 
enjoy and I'm just an old fuddy duddy who sometimes "just doesn't get it."

I watched some of the curling competition on the winter olympics this past 
year, learned a little about the sport and generally formed the opinion that it 
reminded me of shuffleboard on valium.  I thought there couldn't be anything 
more boring save watching grass grow or ice melt, until today.

I saw a kid almost jumping out of his skin playing video curling on a wii.  I 
couldn't believe my eyes.  Video sports... baseball, football, golf, 
basketball... but video curling?  That took the cake.  I walked away in "head 
shaking mode" after I saw that.

I know... I'm just too old.  I'm sorry.  As I said... I intend this to give 
some of you a chuckle.  ;-)

Sounds like it was worth it from the article. Anyone play this game?
