My friend used to live in the tropics and he always felt sick and could barely move.  
His name is a homonym of an island in the British Indian Ocean Territory.  
Today my friend lives in Norway and does slalom skiing all day long.

I knew a woman who was a field operative for the CIA.  
Oddly enough, she loved pork rinds.  
When she was working undercover once in Paris she discovered escargot and liked those even better than pork rinds, if you can believe it!

I’d get in some curling while sweeping the kitchen but the cabinets get in the way.

(edit) Now that I’ve found out what those symbols actually are:

I’m diabetic, so I threw a curling stone at my computer’s floppy disc thingy.
