Everytime I hear someone mention a bowling league I think of the Joe Walsh song "Ordinary Average Guy" (which was the name of the last bowling team I was on BTW). BKH

I'm just an ordinary average guy
My friends are all boring
And so am I
We're just ordinary average guys

We all live ordinary average lives
With average kids
And average wives
We all go bowling at the bowling lanes
Drink a few beers
Bowl a few frames
We're just ordinary average guys
Ordinary average guys

And every Saturday we work in the yard
Pick up the dog do
Hope that it's hard (whaf whaf)
Take out the garbage and clean out the garage
My friend's got a Chrysler
I've got a Dodge
We're just ordinary average guys
Ordinary average guys

Tim, you had better bring the 90- I'd love to get behind the wheel if the boat will forgive me for using Fram filters.

Sorry I missed the get-together but it was opening night for my bowling league.

Always good to throw back a couple with you guys. Brad, it was great to meet you, hopefully I'll get to visit the NE crew some time this year.

Brian, it's probably a good thing you weren't in this week...they were out of the BBQ chicken pizza, and I'm pretty sure that's the only good one they have.

I figure thats just another level of competition, highest law enforcement measured noise level wins. Or slowest loud boat gets the ticket however the commmitee wants to play it ..

Joe, I fully intend to take you up your offer- thanks again. With Brad out of the mix, its time to start recruiting for a copilot!

I think the '90 would be the leading contender in the loudest/slowest category, assuming we're talking top end here. I take it youre bringing the '83 again? Or will the Mustang be ready?

Brad,
Great to meet you last night, and again congrats on the inbound #2.. Your summer will be busy trying not to have both kid's heads rocket off the steering wheel LOL...

Travel safe going back East, an oh, and tell Tim not to worry, Quinner knows all the hookers downtown, he'll find one to drive out with him next summer hahaha...

Ha, I wish. I may have to bring the Skier, as the '90 would probably be ticketed for excessive noise.   Ill make a decision come springtime.

Actually, I may not be going at all if I cant find someone to make the drive with me![/QUOTE]

I think you are selling him short Brad. Mr. ReidP Jr will figure a way to get both of them out there.

Brad, I'm not the one who needs help. I've been off them for about 8 months (excluding a couple times I've cheated!). It's Chris that needs to get help!!

Hmm- I better talk to Nick about making that ride with you again this summer Tim...
Cheney is due July 16th, so this Fan won't be going far from home around that time.

Looks like I'm out for tonight, I have a temp crew coming in to run a second shift for a few days. It was a long shot anyway as it's a 62 mile drive in Chicago evening traffic but I was trying to be positive.

Have to catch up with you next time Brad.

Hollywood- sorry to hear that man. It took me down a couple weeks ago.

I'm gonna meet up with Quinner at the train station after work and ride out together.

Johnny, are you driving back into town afterward? If so, I'll hop in with ya, otherwise, I'll grab a return train.

Hope the twisters didn't get any of you last night and don't get in our way tonight fellas
