NT - Burning the Midnight Oil

Bowling was a success... And I think the girls had fun too.

In the words of Todd:

I would like to start by saying that Jimms was once again the entertainment at the bowling alley. Not sure he meant to be, but it just turned out that way. We had a special appearance from a new part of the Noggin Toggin tradition, the farting yard gnome made his debut, and he did not disappoint. Well shall we begin the recap.

The day started off with a little twist of Jimms presenting me a video of PT Cruiser stuffed with live sheep in the back seat. Apparently he had passed this vehicle on the highway. I did however see some disappointment in his eyes because he was not going to the same place as the sheep. After a few pitchers of beer, some candid photos of the group, and Jimms bragging of his league bowling skills we decided it was time to bowl. Of course Jimms whipped out his bowling scores from league and the "Patches". The scores and patches were pretty impressive, but it was time to prove his worth on the lanes. Long story short, the lanes were too oily, not enough oil, the lanes are waxed not oiled, and i think the pins hated him at one point. So what did we learn from the family bowling. I learned that Matteo throws one hell of a meaty ball. I learned that Boogs was not sure what lane to throw the ball down on the amount of gutters he hit, perhaps he should have heeded our advice and bowled with the children and the bumpers. I learned that Pener with his nice hair gut, tight shirt, and James Gandolfini pants does not bowl well (though he beat Jimms one game). Blyle, what do you say about this guy, who would have thought you could bowl so well wearing a$$less chaps. Although I am still short and fat, using my jedi mind tricks I was able to capture the crown this year.

Provided Jimms sends them, photos will be posted soon... Girls, if you have photos from the baby shower, send those as well.
