Thread: Forgot How Much I LOVE to Bowl

  1. #1

    Default Forgot How Much I LOVE to Bowl

    Hello all,
    Just recently getting back into the game after a while away(my last league was in college which was ~15 years ago). The new company that I work for has a 2-game Friday lunch league that started 7 weeks ago. I joined to have fun, get some free lunch, and meet others in the company I don't interact with on a daily basis, and I'll be d@mned if I'm not hooked on the game like I was in high school haha. I was originally just going to use a house ball but found my 20 year old AMF XS in a cabinet in the garage a week before the work league started so I've been using that with moderate success (High game: 252). I'm definitely doing research on new equipment and pro shops in the area to update/upgrade whats in my bag.

    For all that post regularly, thanks...I'm in sponge mode right now!

    Just ignore anything from "Iceman". Nothing will ruin your game faster.

    Sounds like a great place to work are they called Google by any chance?

    I know Google's corporate offices in Silicon Valley has a very small bowling
    lounge built in I think it is something like 2 or 4 lanes.

    Got it, thanks for the advice. There's a guy that sleeps with like 15 undrilled bowling balls in bed with him...I'll probably ignore him too, that's just weird

    No, not Google, that'd be nice though haha. It's a biotech that has a VP that really likes bowling, so we reap the benefits!

    Apparently I have a stalker. Sweet. I've always wanted my own stalker. Now I adjust need 'him' to be a 'her' and 'her' to be hot....and preferably cool and preferably wealthy...and I'm business.

    I've always preferred the term creeper...stalker has a too much of a felony/misdemeanor undertone to it haha.
    Unfortunately, I am a "him", but my wife is hot, cool, and a doctor...I guess your needs are very similar to what my needs were. I'm not going to lie, I kind of hate myself for that last part...a little too douchey-brag if you ask me haha
