Theme Week, Part Asia

Jeremy's Sametime Status Proudly Presents: 2014 Olympic Curling Athlete True or False Week!  Day VII:  Maria Wennerstroem 


Oddly similar to yesterday's.  Wonder if there's any connection.  If you know Jeremy, chances are really good that this one is in here for a reason.  All you have to do is guess what that reason is! 


So, Theme Week continues here today was Maria Wennerstroem.  Is Maria a 2014 Olympic Curler or not?  Let us know!

Yesterday's quiz was all about Hans-Erik Wennerström.  Almost the same last name, but do they have the same background?  Mans-Erik Wennerström was unfortunately NOT an Olympic Curling athlete.  He is one of the main antagonists in the first of the Millenium trilogy of novels by Steig Larsson, "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo."  His vilification of protagonist Mikael Blomkvist is what prompts Blomkvist to go off on his adventures with Lisbeth Salander in the first place, setting the first story in motion.  Wennerström is later proven to be a total jerk and some repercussions happen.  No spoilers, even though there have already been two movies about this, so you really should have seen one of them by now. 

So...Hans-Erik Wennerström...total jerk and not an Olympic curler.  Maria Wennerstroem...distant relative and also a total jerk, or wholesome Olympic Curling athlete?  Decide now!
