Theme Week, Part Green

Jeremy's Sametime Status Proudly Presents: 2014 Olympic Curling Athlete True or False Week!  
Day V:  Jeanne Ellegaard


Curling athlete or not, that is one amazing name.


Couldn't agree more, and that's one of the reasons Ms. Ellegaard was chosen to represent Theme Week today.  Only question is...2014 Olympic Curling Contestant, or not?  Let us know!

Yesterday, we were introduced to Bjorn Ulvaeus, though many of us have known him for quite some time.  Unfortunately, not for curling.

Bjorn, along with Benny Andersson make up the two B's in ABBA, with Agnetha Fältskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad providing the A's.  The Stockholm-based Euro-pop group is one of the most popular musical groups in musical history, with their studiocompilation album "Gold" selling over 28 million copies by itself.  Ulvaeus and Andersson would also go on to create Broadway musicals "Chess" and "Mama Mia."  There is nothing to suggest that Ulvaeus couldn't be an Olympic-class curler, but he will not be competing in the 2014 games.

Theme Week continues next week with more Olympic Curling action!
