Conversation

Regarding some of the ice issues at the Vancouver Winter Olympics...

Me: One of my friends wondered if there was zamboni tampering going on.
Kayla: What's a zamboni?
Me: The machine that lays down the smooth ice for the skaters.
Kayla: Oh! I thought you were talking about a tribe or something.

I always love these conversations! The Jello Ladies all have finely honed senses of humour.

This non sporty person thought a zamboni was an ice cream.

Zamboni! Perhaps my favorite sports-related equipment!

I take it all the embarrassing things you say show up on your daughters' blogs.

Why have you been sheltering them for so long!!!! everyone on earth up here knows what a Zamboni is? it's the highlight of any "free skate", watching the Zamboni while your putting your boots back on :)

I don't know anything about any type of ice skating or ice hockey, but I love the zamboni. I want to drive one.
