Hooves Are Close, Usually

So if something is close to horseshoes, does that count?


What exactly is close to horseshoes?


Depends who you ask, I guess.  If you ask a farrier, probably nothing, but anyone else may tell some things like shuffleboard, lawn darts, and curling are close to horseshoes. 


Which brings us right back to curling.  We should wrap up Theme Week while we're at it.  


Fair enough.  We last left off on Friday with James Van Riemsdyk, who was a member of the 2014 Us Men's Olympic hockey team, not Curling.  I'd like to thank everyone who participated in this Olympic Theme Week and hope everyone had a good time and learned a thing or two.

Anyway...today's Sametime Status is, of course, a semi logical continuation of the phrase "Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades."  We're left to wonder if, therefore, something that is close to horseshoes (a lucky rabbit's foot, perhaps), or hand grenades (Molotov cocktail?), would also suffice.  I still don't know.
