Hockey



When Dr. Dolittle was staying with me and working locally this spring, we watched the entire series of Avatar: The Last Airbender. I enjoyed it thoroughly, and it set me up to enjoy the classic elements of hockey. This comic is from Kasper at Hoppy Doodle.

  3. Also horse hockey. That used to be a word for nonsense. It's still a pretty good word. Like an angry swear word that I read somewhere a few weeks ago but can't find now, where someone hits his hand with a hammer or is otherwise hurt or frustrated to the point of barking, "Neil deGrasse /TYSON!/"

  4. Not golf, you'd need an opponent playing defense, so it would be field hockey.

    I supposed horse hockey would be polo. But we really know what hockey stands for in that idiom.
