Who's buying wera?

and leaf blowers.

 

They just heard that Trackday Winner is buying the Canadian women's curling assoc.

 

New WERA sport .. Lacrosse played with Curling Stones ... time to beef up them sticks boi’s

 

Already got 'em...

 

And the USA is awesome at it too! Yes, better even than the Canucks. Just see the video thread for the Gold Medal beatdown shot on some hapless Norwegian country.

 

We can't help it if they can't understand English. Maybe they should stop pretending to speak French.

 

Any update on how she is liking the sticks?

 

I worked in Canada for many, many years and the issue wasn't Quebec. In the other provinces and even though we were speaking the Queen's English there was always something to miscommunicate about.
Example: Hey Jeff we need some stickers and crests.
Ok what the hell is a crest?
You know the crest, the thing you put on leathers
Oh you mean a Pirelli leather patch?
Yep that's it

 

If you just called it by it's proper name in the first place, "a patch", there would have been no problem

 

I did they didn't, LOL

 

Growing up 40 minutes from Canada me and the peeps developed a big liking for Canadian beer. Back in the 70-80s we would drive over to Windsor to the peeler bars and afterwards stop by a brewer's retail to buy a case to bring home. I remember loving John Labatt's extra stock, Molson triple X and many more Quebec beers that were great and readily available.

Fast forward to the 90s & 2000s, while traveling on business I'd ask for a Kokanee, and the answer was nope how about a Canadian Coors or Bud? Hell no I don't drink that swill in the states why here? We were both speaking English but it didn't translate, so I would ask for a bloody Caesar instead and everything was good!

 

She's using the UA stick and loving it. I leant the Warp to a friend who coaches and all the girls thought it was "soooooo cooool!"

So far she's loving the game and getting great comments from the coaches.

 

And those of us south of the 49th parallel still can't figure out why peanut butter and cheeze whiz are breakfast food up north.

 

I went to the University of Vermont from 97-99. Loved driving up to Montreal and getting that Molson XXX. I’d drink two and be done. Lol.
