channce, the biographies of famous bowlers is less likely than a frame-by-frame account of the time he bowled a 257 to reach the semi-finals of his league tournament in 1978. That would be followed up by “Where Are They Now” stories about the rest of his team.
However, if you’re missing your daily Dotage I’ll point out that you ought to have left out the comma after “real good in class”…
My own personal idiosyncracies compel me at this point to mention that the phrase “Ay, there’s the rub…” in Hamlet’s “To be or not to be…” soliloquy is in truth a reference to bowling. (Lawn bowls rather than 10-pin bowling, as the latter was uncommon in Shakespeare’s England.)
Did anyone else watch that one CSI show a while back
where a guy went to retrieve the ball from the ball return
and a human head came out instead. This strip kinda
reminded me of that.
I’m reminded of the movie Mystery Men, where the D-list superheroine the Bowler (J. Garofalo) wields a lucite bowling ball with the skull of her father (the previous Bowler) encased within…

I can see that crystal taking evil revenge on the fortune teller, the least of which will be untrue revealings to her customers.

The surprise is not that Roz is bowling, the surprise is that she wears her apron to do it…

If the crystal ball doesn’t stop complaining, the next stop is the skeet range.

I don’t pick on him, I administer corrective ridicule. I sincerely hope that he amends his errant habits.
For the most part he doesn’t need to shut up, he just needs an editor.
