Ah, A Warm Sport...Now That's More Like It!




LEFT: Spectators were oooh'ing and aaah'ing at my cool new shoes
RIGHT: a perfect throw, and an incredible 5-7-10 leave. And that's the way the night went...

Got to got play with the kids again last night at bowling. It was my first night out with my way cool new bowling shoes, and man, did my game show it! 167 (leaving opens in the 8,9,10th that could have easily given me a 210 game). Then, a really sucky 2nd game; couldn't hit a mark to save my life. But, then back to a 170 third game. Tom had his first ever "owned" ball, and he had a good night also. And Mike is now on the "Top 5" list for match points (head-to-head vs your competitor). Not a strong bowler, but a strong competitor, and we'll take that.

I may not be much of a bowler, but I'm better than the President-Elect. Of course, the guys against us were MUCH better, skunking us by several hundred pins each game. In a sight hopefully not to be repeated, in the last game their last 3 bowlers ALL struck out (3 strikes in the 10th frame) to thoroughly whup us. Humbling...but at least we looked cooler than them!
