Well the only thing I asked from my family this year was the opportunity to go bowling with the wife - just the two of us. This is something we literally haven't done in over a year, I've gone by myself, and I've taken my daughter bowling, but not just the wife and I.

You know how people go "If I had a million dollars/win the Publisher's Clearinghouse Sweepstakes/win the lottery, I'd . . . " and then they come out with the new house, new cars, vacations, liposuction/plastic surgery, and the like? Well I have one of those dreams, and it centers around bowling.

You see, I figure that I'm one of the few people who if they won a huge amount of money, I wouldn't quit work - I'd start working more. You see, my dream is to build my own bowling
