Bowling Recap

Here's a very brief recap of last night's bowling exploits.
ICBING was running on a skeleton crew: we only had five bowlers. We rotated people into the sixth spot so that we'd have a full complement against over, more fully staffed teams.
Here's what the scores looked like:

Wrong Lane: 95, 104
Take a Knee: 130, 94
Nugatory En Fuego: 122, 100
Bowling InJury: 107, 86
Breaks 50 (and sometimes 100, her average is about 70, compared to a princess, "&", attractive nuisance): 83, 58

Ghost Person: 123, 88

It was Take a Knee's birthday, and he was showered with gifts ranging from store bought cookies to a bowling pin (the kind you wear, not the kind you knock down) to shamrock wristbands to a green plastic St. Patty's Day hat. Take a Knee also wore some very fashionable socks that had a bowling ball and pins on it - and if you folded it down, it sported the word "BOWLING."

Take a Knee also had the quote of the night, while talking to Breaks 50 (et al):
"If you don't break 50, then the terrorists win... Sleeper cells are pulling for a 48, if you know what I mean."

Although much fun was had by all, we look forward to having the full team together again for next week.

P.S. The naming committee (see last post) has been overruled, and bowlers will be known by their former names. Well, except for Breaks 50, who simply adds a few names to her already extensive list each week.

Oh my gosh, Alex, I cannot BELIEVE you didn't even mention my mad Natty Light drinking skills!

Apparently, Bowling Injury has "mad Natty Light drinking skills." She did drink the better part of a pitcher that night (all but one glass, I think?), which may or may not be evident in the drop in her score between the first and second game. :)

I apologize for the oversight.
