bowling.



Greetings blog-pals! Just wanted to share with you all my new passion. Bowling. Aside from the rented shoes and crowded lanes, I may have just found my athletic calling in life. I mean, c'mon...who couldn't respect a sport that allows you to sip cheap vodka drinks while participating in a competition? I must say, despite what you all may be thinking...I kicked ass. I came in second place out of 7 other bowlers. It is probably due to my very innovative move that requires a slight (or, perhaps, more demonstrative) hop just prior to releasing the ball down the alley. Let me warn you, people...this is a very technical move and when one puts too much drama into the hop, one risks overstepping the line on the alleyway thereby causing one's foot to engage the very oily ground surface which could result in falling on one's ass. I cannot testify to this experience, personally, but I have heard it can be very nasty. My next step: get my own balls.

nothing compares to bowling. the best alleys are the ones that let you smoke inside. it's also pretty sweet if they have the older arcade games. like pac-man. or frogger.

this video was way better than the one with that cat.
