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.
