I may be one of those rare individuals who has never put on a pair of ice skates in his life, although I have always wanted to learn. Ironically, hockey is my favorite sport. It has always mesmerized and amazed me how these big, powerful men can glide around the ice with the greatest of ease. If I were 20 years younger, I might still take a stab at it. But at my age now, I would probably just be inviting trouble . . .

◭The youth counselor at my last church described his ice skating as like Zippo the Chimp. Since Bingo the Chimp on Abbott and Costello did roller skate, I guess I’m Olly the Octopus. All hands and I still can’t do it!

It is interesting reading your perspective...As for me, I do not know how to skate at all.
