Happy Thanksgiving!! If you’re reading this after Thanksgiving, then I hope you had a wonderful day filled with family, friends and football…or whatever it is that makes your Thanksgiving special.

Well, we don’t know how we fared last night because there were 4 teams who bowled out at a different time due to a tournament being held in Saline. We had a good night overall, so we probably took some points. Don was sick, so Wendy came and bowled in his place. Here’s how the scoring went:

Wendy	132	133	165	430 Series
Jill	159	121	201	481 Series
Bruce	213	188	183	584 Series
Craig	214	237	244	695 Series
Kirk	191	204	189	584 Series

That’s it for now. Have a great week!

I know, it’s not even Thanksgiving, but I got a link to a video celebrating Christmas, so I’m sharing it. It pretty much sums up my feelings about the holiday (or should I say Holy Day?). Enjoy!!

Yep, it’s Wednesday again. We bowled again. I really need to add some new material to my blog. We lost the first and third games, but won the first game and totals. So that’s 3 of 7 points that we took. Better than nothing, I guess. Kirk started out slow tonight but really came alive in the third game. Don had a really rough first game, but changed balls and really improved. Craig was steady as can be, as was Jill. I changed something I was doing late in the first game and never got my shot back. That’s ok, my average was getting too high anyway.

So here’s how the scoring went:

Don	117	212	180	509 Series
Jill	156	149	133	438 Series
Bruce	209	170	167	546 Series
Craig	234	222	198	654 Series
Kirk	143	165	250	558 Series

Well, that’s this week’s report. I’ll try to get some new, hopefully original, content on here this week. Don’t hold your breath waiting for it, though.

Yes indeed, it’s time for yet another exciting bowling report! Fasten your seat belts and hang on, cuz here we go!!

Okay, anywho…here’s the scores.

Don	131	167	157	455 Series
Jill	137	157	174	468 Series
Bruce	226	212	208	646 Series
Craig	220	233	247	700 Series
Kirk	202	213	185	600 Series

The team we bowled against had 2 new bowlers who had not established average. So after waiting for it all to get over, our calculations said that we won 5 points and lost 2. But after looking at the scoring sheet online, it would appear that we won all 7 points. Good for us! Last week we moved up from 9th place to 6th, this week we didn’t move up at all.

Stay tuned. More excitement next week!

Bowling Report Repost

I had a little trouble at work with the bowling report redirecting me to some other page, so I’m going to try again. So here it is…

Last night we didn’t do as well as the last couple of weeks, only winning the last game. We kept it tight all 3 games, though, and only lost totals by 16 pins. We had a good time, as usual, and Kirk bowled quite well with a 691 series! Craig bowled well too, after a rather dismal first game. Here’s how the scoring went:

Don	164	128	139	431 Series
Jill	135	117	148	400 Series
Bruce	199	197	192	588 Series
Craig	158	223	234	615 Series
Kirk	259	217	215	691 Series

Another week of bowling is done. We did well. We won all 7 points against a pretty good team. In response to the Pudgeman’s question from last week’s report, we got a young fella named Craig to fill in the empty spot on the team. Nobody could ever replace you, Dougie. We just filled a void. Anyway, on to the scores:

Don 142 136 150 428 Series
Jill 132 138 140 410 Series
Bruce 226 256 195 677 Series
Craig 222 182 211 615 Series
Kirk 279 191 191 661 Series

A good night for most of us. Don has been struggling a little, but I’m sure he’ll get it together very soon. And that’s the way it was, October 17, 2007

This is amazing! My buddy Ken shared this with me (and others), so now I’m sharing it with you. It is really really cool…especially if you appreciate music and creativity. Enjoy!

Bowling 2007

Yes, it’s that time of year again. Bowling has begun. We’re 5 weeks into the season, but I decided to wait to see if I was going to continue bowling at all. Seems I was getting somewhat burned out or whatever. But I’m back, I’m already missing bowling with my brother Pudgeman (who won’t make the commute from PA), and I’m bowling pretty decent right now. As a team we’re bowling pretty good. We took 3 of 7 points last week and last night we took all 7. I bowled well over my pathetic average last night with scores of 215, 181 and 223 for a 619 series. The other team only had 3 bowlers, so we finished early and were home about 30-40 minutes ahead of the usual time.

Stay tuned…I might do this every week!
