Let's Roll

Strange as it seems, my bowling team is right in the thick of things as the "bowl-offs" approach. We spanked the first-place team last week to take sole possession of third place in the league (OK, so it's only eight teams, but...), and now only a few points separate us from the second-place team, who we face tonight. My average is up to a scorching 114 and I'm ready to blow up on those pretenders to the silver. Hey, if things somehow go amazingly well, we could even have a shot at winning the whole ball of wax. And that would be cool, since there is money involved. But I will settle for a second-place plaque to hang on the wall of my bathroom, next to Dick the Albino Bowler. That seems highly appropriate.
