    I demand a recall!

    In light of Canada winning The Junior World Cup Hockey and Sweden coming in 5th.... I question how we could possibly have a Winter Queen from Sweden when it appears her country does not play winter sports that well...

    Well I would comment, but as I live in Savannah, Georgia I'm not entirely certain what hockey (or winter for that matter) is.
    Hello.

    Maybe... but any country that can build that Turning Torso skyscraper can definitely have a Queen!

    Seriously, it's really cool!

    Perhaps once Nancy Anderson is recalled our Winter King and Queen could take over the running of the USFA.

    Sure. Why not. A Canadian and a Swede running the USFA. The only risk is that their children will be blonde haired, beer drinking hockey fans...not fencers.

    It could be worse, they could turn out foilists.

    I thought foilists were sterile, like mules?

    ( OK, I only hoped they were. )

    Naw... it's a common myth because everything is over so quickly and their weapons... lack ahem... size and tend to bend easily

    As for sabre fencers... there's just lots of yelling and arguing about who made the first move so reproduction thankfully seldom happens.

    That's why you see so many epeeists... they're prolific in their breeding. They take their time and are very through… touching the whole body until the moment is right. Plus they have simultaneous touches providing mutually rewarding bouts.

    Prolific, yes; discriminating, apparently not.
