You do your friday matches at Vivian or NKC? I have a spare hour or so today and may come over to watch some of the epic battle unfold? Plus I really want to see that Marauder in action
Iceman will not be reduced to a DRIP!!
Are you saying that your goal is to reduce Iceman to a DRIP? No need for a vacuum, esp a wet vac! This Iceman is going to not only cool The Dude off, but actually cause MIND Freezes!! Something I have been working on! Just before The Dude starts to throw his ball I can now send through the air at the back of his head, 3 inches above C-5, what can only be described as a non-liquid-mind-freeze!! Hit causes a bowlers eyes to roll back in their sockets, thus missing their mark!!
YES MARK my words, Dude!! My sweet precious wants company (my new DV8 marauder)! I am thinking about using your bowling ball, for a yard ornament!! I will polish it, maybe two coasts, and then mount it on a pedestal in the front yard, (like those glass balls that look so nice you see around town)!
Then every time I look out the window, I will think back to the day that I won that trophy! What a heart freezing moment!! ICEMAN!

What a day!!!
Bowled with Mike, and Ursus came to bowl with us today.. Very nice guy, we had a good time..
The first game today, I had the first 11 strikes, threw a perfect ball on the 12th one, and BOOM! RINGING 10!! A 299. Deflating.
Next game, I had the first 8 strikes, went a little high, and left a wobbling 4 pin! shot a 277.
The third game, had all strikes and 2 splits (opens), for a 228.
So I shot an 804 series! All using my DV8 Too Reckless. My first one ever, even though it was in practice. I hope to do it in league soon.
Game 4 had a 210.
Game 5, I switched to the Vivid and was searching for a line. I shot a 201. (funny story coming up about this game in a minute, Bill, you will be happy!).
Then... in game 6 today... I had the first 6... the first 8... the first 9... the open bowlers and workers gathered behind to watch me try to complete it this time (The one I had a couple weeks ago, there was only 2 or 3 people watching, this time at least 10 or 15..) Third time is the charm right!?
The worst part is Ursus left right before this game started!!
I'm thinking about doing a 6 game tournament tomorrow. If I shoot as well as I did today, I'm fairly certain I'll finish 1st or 2nd. So I hope I can do this again tomorrow.
We bowled 3 more after those 6, and games 7,8, and 9 were a 237, 235, 219... Definitely the best day I've ever had bowling...
So back to the funny story.... I left a 3,4,6 split in game 5, right before Ursus left, and I said to both Mike and Ursus, if I pick this up... You are both banned from bold font for 2 weeks... They agreed, and I nailed it! NO BOLD!! Then 2 frames later, I left the EXACT same split (Ursus was gone at this point), and I told Mike, if I pick it up again, we add a week, and if I miss, we subtract a week, he agreed. He went up on the lane next to me and started jumping around making funny noises and faces to try to distract my focus.... to no avail. I stayed focus, and nailed it again! 3 WEEKS no BOLD! You're welcome Bill! I even game him a chance in the last game we bowled today to earn a week back, but he couldn't finish it.. I think he ended with a 205 and 219 for me.
He did, however, beat me in the 2nd to last game by ONE pin (seems like a pretty often occurrence, doesn't it? One pin). No bets were on though, so he doesn't get a week back. Still, what a great game! There is something to be said for beating me on a day like today when I was on fire!
So I beat Mike for the bowling ball, but what actually ended up happening was, Ursus had mentioned he had kids and I no longer needed the ball I brought. So I let him have the 12 pound ball to give to his kids. He mentioned how one of them was really wanting a ball after I gave him mine, so I was happy to hear that and hopefully he can starting putting up some big scores with his dad! Mike also offered his ball to him, but Mike's was 15 lbs, too heavy for the kids. Mike did however, give it to someone else in the bowling alley. So everyone is a winner today.
Had a good time bowling with you guys (Mike and Ursus) Look forward to it again!
(NO BOLD!! HAH! High five, Bill!)
THE DUDE~~ 299, and a 300! within minutes!!!!
All I can say is: WOW! as I agreed from this day forward for two weeks, I will not type bold, or even large. 804 series!! your not human!

Thanks! Don't forget though, it's 3 weeks, not 2.Originally Posted by MICHAEL
3 weeks
I almost forgot, sorry!
Sorry I missed the 300. The Dude was definitely on fire today, I only saw him miss the pocket one time in the 4 games I was there to witness. I had a great time bowling with you and Iceman een though it now cost me bold print for the next 2 weeks. You should have seen my son's eyes light up when I showed him that ball, it was like christmas morning.
