Last night a friend of mine who decided he wanted to go out and do something. Of course he decided this somewhat late in the evening, and we drove around trying to figure out something to do. We wound up bowling, since that's the only thing open at 11:30 in my town.

We played three games. It's the first time I've played in over 7 years, and I lost all three games. He says I have no form.

Bowling balls are supposed to roll, not bounce, right?

At least you don't roll yours INTO THE NEXT LANE like I did....lol

I like bowling but I really suck at it.:rolleyes:
 
I suck at this too, but I bought my own ball anyway as I use an 8# and the ones at the alley have holes that are too small.
 
Story of my life; Trying to find a hole large enough to accomadate me.
 
I have just started bowling for the first time in my life.

I pulled a muscle in my butt.
It hurts.

I hurt my hands. I have delicate hands (just like the rest of my poofy little body) so the balls were a little painful to handle.

Sorry about your butt. Treat it nicely.
 
Bowled a bit in high school...great club nearby...anyway was taught that you should end up giving the pins the finger after you let the ball go...keep your wrist flat and release and there ya go...got four strikes in a row one night!
 
My friend informed me afterward that he bowled in junior high. Bastard. If we'd have played pool like I suggested I would have ripped him a new one.

Pretty sad when your 8 year old son beats your score.:(

It's sadder when your 8 year old brother picks up women better than you do.

Ouch

It's just cuz 8 year old boys are so cute. My son always has girls flirting with him.

Hey, I'm cute. :( I just don't have his outgoing nature and joy of life.
 
bow-ling?

Is this the game where you stick you fingers in a ball then fling it towards an alley and try to knock down some sticks?

babe...you are not the ONLY one! I can't play either (my eldest can though---and she LOVES it!) :)
 
I LOVE bowling.
I'm not great at it, but I love it anyway. :)

It takes practice, (lots in my case).
 
My stepkid went bowling the other nite.....his BEST game was a 43...now assuming he threw the ball 20 times, thats 2.15 pins per roll.

I carry a 195 average. My dad was a pro bowler, and a great girl friend from Queens New York is a touring pro that averages 231.

I'm thinkin my stepkids need some direction in the bowling deal...Helen Keller could bowl 43...hell she could bowl more than that and shes blind AND dead.

Just how does one do a massage without touching? I need to know so I can avoid that situation.
