I wanted to do a post in honor of Memorial day and what not a better topic then are lost friends.

To the four fathers of the Norris 6
Once there was so many eight to be exact
Many pens have fallen in laughter and joy.
Even more drinks tipped back but who keeps score.
But some brothers were gone this week for sure.

Jelly D was the first to disappear in the fog.
With a move to a new city; boy, he has gotten skinny
Even found him a woman, but that did not cure him.
I am sure that his money would have been pretty

Then there was Pool boy who did not drown
I miss him most of all, why he is my oldest friend of all.
He will not give up his two dolors he is a tight Jew.
Now he just sits home with a frown wondering what to do.

High ball went down with a double barrel scotch.
Sat at home and looked at his watch.
To tired to play to tired to smoke ha ha what a funny joke.
We all know his two dolors went up in smoke.

Now there was a professor who googled the world.
Said he had three BBQ's missed them all.
You know he sat home and watched LA fall.
We take his two dolors week after week Must be his nasty Feet.

Too all my friends in the Norris 6 I miss you much,
All I am doing it try to stay in touch.
To bad you are all a bunch of cluster F@&ks
But you are my friends and I poured one out for my homies
Because this week I took the Money with a 158

See you all next week. You guys are the best.

The Recap

Ok so I have just read Diego Maradona's auto biography so I thought I would honor him and the golden hand. Now the start of his book had some interpretations of some of his favorite sayings. I thought I would use them in my Recap. Here they are so you understand.

Vaccinate - Literally meaning to inject or jab, Maradona uses it in the same way as "f*@k", both literally and figuratively. Thus, if he vaccinates a Woman he has had sex with her and if he vaccinates an opponent he has scored a goal

Thermos-head - Someone who is stupid or slow

Take the cat's milk - This is generally used in a sense similar to ' take the piss', or ' be out of order'. It also suggest stealing, or doing something illegal

Let the tortoise get away - This suggest someone who has reacted slowly, been not with it, not on the ball

Give the dog its face back - Someone who is dog-faced, disqualified from or lacking in authority to pass comment.

All the signs were pointing that Monday night was going to be my day. Let me see if my photographic memory can recall them. On the way to the bolwing ally I made a sdie bet. If I can do any of thsee bowl a prefect game, a Dutch 200, a 300, any thing over 200, and or win the mneoy game. I wuold take the nxet day off.

So I pull up fvie muintes befroe 9:00 and the Profsseor is wiating in his car. To sohw me he is trhee he htis his braeks trhee tmies. We wlak up Porfsesor geos up to the counter and ltes the Thremos haed konw we are tehre. As I wlak to the talbe to sit, bam I fnid three dimes and tell Porfeesor its a sgin I am giong to win tnoight. He luaghs lttile deos he konw it was the secnod sgin. That's wehn I haer the Thremos haed call out the fmaous nmae Chcuk yuor lnae is raedy. The Profsseor then hnads me the Mromon rules to dirnking and bwoling. Deicding to be a man of my wrod I go up to the bar and buy the prefossor his beer ( go Shraks ). Sign three a man pyaing off all dbets to claer his nmae. Eevry one else arirves and the bwoling begins. I am alawys frist wehn the Prefossor deos the lnene up so the frist ball I chcuk and let the tortoise get aawy form me. Only to be told I hvae to dirnk baceuse taht's the cosenqeunce of a gettur ball. Dam but why is eevry one dirnknig with me. Sign fuor my bset of frenids dirnknig in my srorow of thworing the frist gettur ball of the ngiht. Now I htae to Gvie the dog its fcae bcak but as I hold the rcoerd for musnons rghit now. Eervy one shuold drnik all the tmie wehn I bwol. Eevn the Polbooy baet me the frsit game. The Tritosie puts dwon the frist Terkuy and gtes to mkae a rlue. He tekas the cat's milk and otus the dinrking gmae. Thnak god beacuse I was all raedy dirnknig a lot baceuse of my good gmae. The sceond gmae strats abuot hlaf way thourgh we gvie the dog its fcae bcak and chcek out the methhaed arcoss the way. Luaghnig at the pciking of the fcae and cnsotant bursihng of her hiar. I tehn tlel Lncuh Mnoey taht's what I do all day sit in a lbboy at pcik out all the carck haeds and waht knid of durgs tehy are on. Sgin fvie the Ridlene strats to pay his pts to cmoe too bwoling to dsrtiact the othres. Cost me aonther fvie bcuks to hvae her hit on the Trotosie the old lday csot me ten.

With a sruprise appaernace of a old fiernd ED and aonther apperaance form my scocer cerw. I kenw thnigs wree looknig my way. Defnelty sgin sveen epseically when the frist thnig I bwol is a stirke wtih tehm wtaching. The lfet lnae was defanitly well oelid and the pnis wree bieng vciactaned by are balls. But I cuold slitl not put out any of the thnigs I needed for the day off. So I wnet bcak to a old Hgih Scohol tarditoins and I tkae the ctas mlik. Yes Behnid the biulding the Ctas Mlik was seppid out of two not one but two peps. The thrid gmae bgeins to tortose agian pciknig up on aorthnr Thrrmos Haed wtih a affro. Tosrtoe tekas full adavatnge of the tpis or Gerek she was tacehnig him. Wtih a hgue stirke. I my slef flal rgiht into the gettur aahin. Qicukly raeliizng taht wrok was giong to be my futrue for tomrorow. Atfer wacthing the Profsesor jmup to a big laed at the bigneing of the gmae my hpoe was lsot. Lnuch Mnoey hodilng his own wtih the pttaen prseokaing wram up and dubloing his aticon wtih a raepparence of the Iopd. I kenw I was in truoble. My olny hpoe was the Trtooise wuold let the totroise get aawy form him and taht Poboloy wuold sotp tlkaing carp to me. Tehn the egiht sgin hit me. The Afro top thremos haed pionts her attnetoin on me. She gvae the wsee adicve of if you wnat to hit the 4-7 cmobiatnion you got to aim for the 4 or 7 pen. So taht's waht I did. Tehn Bam I got a trukey and tehn Bam aontehr trkuey I was Vaccnaiting the pnis and bcak in the gmae and wtih a ltitle hlep I cuold win. I jsut needed the Professor to cohke and he alawys lets the tortoise get aawy so I was golden there. By the way fix your nsaty toe. But I aslo needed the infamous Lucnh Money to gvie me a break. Feeling the pressure of alawys being second I was worried but right away with the first thorw I realized that Lunch Money too let the tortoise get away. I had Vaccinated all my friends and stole there two dolors. Thanks guys I guess all the signs were just pointing to me that day. By the way I had a great day at home too.

Hi Q!

Sharks sucking my balls
Hiller was unpassable
Playoffs disappoint

Stay at home parent
Maybe it’s just part time work
Ask Shrudder he knows

Mraz? Whitey Ford?
No farmer lady that night
Bartender pusher

Zito wasn’t bad
Could this be the Giants year
Bonds has steroid brain

The pre-drink routine
Tore Fin was at it again
A money game win

Cannot recall more
Night ends after 3 a.m.
Hangover painful

It was a Happening!

It was a moment of mirth and sadness, highness and lowliness , interchanging of ideas and musical moments, but that was after the bowling was done and concert arrangements were made. The night started before that with a blowout of NCAA Championship in front of the largest audience that had ever seen a blow out in the NCAA Championship (Lucky them, they got to watch the whole thing). And in a time even before that (in a linear fashion), the morning had kicked off the MLB season which would lead to the long enjoyable days of summer and culminate as the leaves begin to fall of the trees and the world goes into a winter slumber.

However it was on that day, such as it was in between time and timelessness that our hero/protagonist (Me in this case) had an epiphany, if you will, that he indeed needed to “Be A Better Bowler” or a BABBS as it would turn out to be.

In essence our Hero had to take his bowling game from this old 1939 Furthur Bus:











And turn it into this new and improved old school Magic Bus













And it was on this bus that our protagonist met Ken Babbs (yes that’s right the very same name that would subliminally prove a boon to the bowling game), one of the original Merry Prankster’s. The feeling and mood was infectious and the acid in the kool-aid was substantial and whenever something is substantial and infectious….

Life flows forth Good times are had The compass loses North And the brain goes bad

And so it was during bowling…

There was Sam and Dave screaming HOLD ON, I’M COMING!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN4DHY_9gOs

There was an A’s pitcher that not even A’s fans or fantasy nuts could remember







Dave Eveland

There was the passing of a boutique, the legality or illegality of which is still indeterminate, but the owner definitely goes by Pablo when the Rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain.
There was a Minnesotan Farmer named Gaylenn with just the cutest little shoes and the cutest little interest in younger men
There was jumping on the table and some Jerk Surfing going on
There was karma and jinxes trotted out like horses at the Kentucky derby
And there was love, peace, and happiness; extended in practicality to the simple act of helping one another out, being kind and generous and it was that power that propelled the rocket ship everyone rode to the stars and beyond the whole night the acid test took place, err I mean the bowling games took place.

Poolboy was a witness
Red Line was a witness
Lunch Money was a witness
Tortoise was a witness
Jelly D was a witness
And there was Ken Babbs reminding us to “Be A Better Bowler” and brought us to the realization that at first, a bunch of us were going to go in a station wagon. (but) then it was getting too big for that.
So we jumped on the bus, and indeed it was magical.
PS and who wins you ask?
We all do.
