Dick Pound???
Oh, that is a familiar name to those of us to your North. Not that we necessarily want it to be…
Dick Pound Olympics.
Not sure that’s family viewing.
Marijuana is not a performance enhancing drug in those ones either.
Yes. Dick. Pound. Olympian & sport anti-doping leader. Your’re obviously bored…
Um… Chuck Tingle called… he like his character back, please…
Yes. Many of us are working from home… we are bored!

Code name 069 in Her Majesty’s Secret Service.
