    Good for you! I don't know how I ended up with my honey, either. She's way out of my league, and a stone-cold fox -- even for 55!

    But why did you CHOOSE her. There are many, many young and stupid people to choose from. You CHOSE her...without the aid of a spreadsheet or database of any kind...so perhaps she was a beauty queen and it was important to you that she be the most beautiful woman in West Virginia. Or perhaps she has a PhD in microbiology and is on the verge of curing cancer and her being one of the most eductated women was most important. Or maybe she had immense child bearing hips and that fit into your overwhelming desire for a large family. Perhaps it was purely a monetary decision and she comes from a wealthy family. Maybe she's an excellent bowler...not Ms. Iceman level of course...but she was already taken.

    I'm assuming of course you "chose" her. It's possible it was an arranged situation and your parents offered your hand in marriage in exchange for a goat or a # of chickens or some monetary dowry of sorts. It's also possible your choices were limited and you "settled" for her. Perhaps you weighed all available options and it came down to a rubber doll, a distant cousin, and her and you made the call.

    Obviously you two ended up together...stayed together...i.e. happily ever after... But what was the method of choice that was that "magic in a bottle" that I could replace my spreadsheet based system with??? <----very important if I'm to find that "Mrs. Right" and experience the eternal bliss of an Iceman, Mudpuppy, or Amyers.

    Right now I am thinking one of two possible things have happened.

    1. Hell has frozen over!!!
    2. I must be really sick and on my deathbed and not know it.

    The reason for the first time in my bowling life there is not a single ball on the market that I want that I don't already own.

    How is someone that has a severe addiction to buying bowling balls supposed to live when there is nothing that interests them.
    Am I too depressed to have any interests in anything on the market? Cause I don't feel depressed.
    So what do I do now????

    I'm in the middle of one as we speak. I just received a Radical Grease Monkey that is being drilled today, and I have the two new Brunswick releases, the Mastermind Intellect and the Brute coming in the next few days.
