			In Own Words:
I want to play with the best curlers in the world, and I want to win a gold medal for my country: the United States of America. It's our turn.[cr][lf][cr][lf]I started playing around on curling ice in wool socks at the age of 8 and bought shoes, played a real game and joined a league at 12. I wanted to curl because my older brother, Mark, did and he was getting good at it, and I thought I might, too. He has always been my mentor. He's one of the top four skips in Edmonton.[cr][lf][cr][lf]For the entire first season of curling I swept backwards, not realizing it until the following year when somebody finally noticed. Not realizing I was doing it wrong I made the extremely awkward switch (I am no longer 'bi-sweptual'. I've been a lousy sweeper ever since. That's why I like to skip. Also because I don't like to put my life in other people's hands.[cr][lf][cr][lf]The thing I enjoy most about the sport is the people I get to meet. I also enjoy the intelligence of the game: the nearly perfect physics; the strategy. It's great to be able to play a gentleman's game that encourages screaming at the top of your lungs. And I love the fact that curling is like great sex: It's all in the touch.
