Nearly 18 years ago on May 10, 1997, Joan Weston,
62, died at her home
in Hayward, CA of a rare brain disorder (CJD).
Joan is better known as the "... gum-chewing, power-skating, hip-bumping golden girl of Roller Derby".
Adolescent LW remembers spending many a Saturday afternoon during the '60s and '70s watching the Roller Derby TV broadcasts (in B&W and Color!).
During her 19 seasons, the blonde, athletic, and (did I mention?) buxom Californian Weston was known to her fans as the premiere "Roller Derby Queen"!
So, accodingly, how much do you know about the "golden girl of Roller Derby", Joanie Weston?
Please choose from any of the 3 (reuseable) answers of "A", "B", or "C" (if applicable!) for each question listed below.
Good Luck and remember, YOU are always a WINNER with us, regardless of your actual answers!
(OK, Let's Get Ready To Roller... Derby!!!!)
++ "Rolling With Joanie Weston" ++
Question
#1: As
a gifted softball player at Mount St. Mary's College (in LA), Joan hit
eight (8) home runs in a single game. What did the nuns tell her would happen,
if she hit a ninth one out of the park?
A. She would receive the College's Softball equivalent of the St. Christopher's Medallion -- since the balls she hit traveled so far, or
B. She would be excommunicated on the spot, as a gesture of sportsmanship and Christian compassion for the other team, or
C. She would have to go chase down the balls she hit after the game, or pay $1.99 for replacement softballs.
Question #2: Besides being known as the "Roller Derby Queen", Joan had other nicknames. Which of the following is NOT one of these nicknames?
A. the "Blonde Bomber", or
B. the "Blonde Bambino", or
C. the "Blonde Amazon"
Question #3: Joan finally succumbed to the brain disorder called Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD). Although this terrible disease is rare in humans, a non-human variant of this disease commonly occurs in other animals, even leading sometimes to large disease outbreaks. What is it called?
A. Ross River Virus Disease (RRVD) -- also called "Oh Bugger!", or
B. Foot-and-Mouth Disease (HFMD) -- also called "Hoof-and-Mouth Disease", or
C. Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) -- also called “Mad Cow Disease”

++ QUOTE OF THE DAY ++ -- When Joanie asked what her mother thought about Roller Derby, Joanie's mother said they were no different than anybody else:
“People and sex are like franks and beans,” she said. “They go together.”
