Got to the figure skating (yawn yawn) An excellent selection - every one a winner!  Yes soot, it's Ailsa Craig. Provided the stone for every Olympic curling stone since 1924. Whatever happened about that bat, flotsam?

5. Isn't taser something to do with Tom Swift, maybe energy rifle? I'm dredging this up from the depths of my brain, so I may be getting it mixed up with something else.
Right now my dream job would be driving a Zamboni over ice.
