Interesting, I was just looking at the new Hammer Hardcore Hammer Grind. Shoot, doesn't come out until the 29th...

LOL. My 13 yo son got into bowling when he was about 8. He just liked it. Now almost 6 years later he's a champion bowler and has a prof coach 2x a week. He is 13 with a 240 avg :0!

YIKES! Darn good there. My GF dragged me into it at the ripe young age of 54, never did ten pin before. My high game is 215, usually between 160 and 190 (consistency is not my motto). Great indoor game when you live where the weather could suck, and often does.

There is a bell curve.

No beers = crappy scores
2 beers = better scores
4 beers = best scores
6 beers = better scores
8+ beers = crappy scores

:D :D :drink:

Reminds me of when I played in a 9-ball league.

Bowling, like darts is one of those 'sports' you can do with a beer in one hand.

Canadian Preperation H to boot !! !!

Hey....... Is anyone interested in having a NOT SO SERIOUS party in KW this year ?? Alex, Do you have anything planned yet for that week at Guy Harvey's ?? If not...Lets put something together !!

Bob

The Big Lebowski :party-smiley-004:

Without question, one of the top 3 worst movies of all time. We sat through it at home, wondering when the greatness would appear that a few talked about. They must have had some serious hallucinogens.

Actually I thought of having a draw for a suite but thought I'd let last years cool down a bit :lolhit:

Guy Harveys will be booked. They are waiting for my call.

We could have a bikini contest and name the winner Shirley!



As in "Shirley, you can't be Serious" :drink::drink:

Party?!?!? Did someone say party?!?!? :ernaehrung004::evilb:

If Dolla keeps up with the preperation botox, and adds a little make up, he can provide the entertainment as a Michael Jackson impersonator. I heard Guy Richards is available too....

:party-smiley-004:

Hey now - Ive see Bill dance. The boyz got moves :kiss: I know some girlies that will bring some dollas for dolla :coolcowboy:

Thank you sweetie. Damn jealous guys. What are ya going to do. New gf is 24 so suck it haters (LOL) When I upgrade my membership I'll post pics but I'm still pizzed about that 300 I blew over at SOS trying to be a nice guy. hahaha

Bill likes to write stuff on people too. Or at least he used to!

Phragle knows some guys that will give Dolla a Dolla!!!!!!:evilb:

I'm still into the writing fetish. Great at parties. Remember key west in 04 with the buyafountain marker? LMAO. I have great pics of that

I remember Washington in '05, you were writing with the marker then, too. I was "marked" along with MarySue, Cat and Terra. Someone had pics of that too.

Ummm, did this turn into chips n boats? Will I see a "Morning ya'all" when I log on tomorrow? :party-smiley-004:

:evilb:

What up HO's!!!!!!:party-smiley-048:

Thats all well and good........but werent you going to be knocking on a door somewhere yesterday???????????:party-smiley-004:

I have to say, this whole CS/SOS episode has been disconcerting. Hints of this were just coming down when I had to take a break while attending to a family medical emergency.

Being a relative outsider, one has to read all they can on an issue and try to figure out the truth. I find myself reading the thread each day wondering what turn will come next. It was nice to see the "Changes" thread at SOS, but after all that has been said and the time delay, I admit I was doubting the validity. Seeing the thread poofed by an "accidental" delete by an Admin with way too much experience is just too fishy.

One of the reasons I stopped visiting OSO for awhile was that any mention of SOS got your thread poofed or worse. It was nothing more than Communist redaction/restriction of speech. SOS allowed us to criticize anyone and anything as long as it was healthy and informative. They did clamp down when necessary.

The dialogue about CS and SOS has not been fun. It hurts when you make a mental commitment to something and then see the foundation blasted apart. I felt it when the group broke off from OSO, now again as the group breaks off from SOS. The whole purpose of SOS was to real, honest and serious about our boating hobby/profession. Not let deception and commercialism rule. Unfortunately, what we have all witnessed is the exposure of deception that exploded right from the core of the foundation.

But to have a thread started on SOS about "changes", then have it poofed "accidentally" once a dissenting view is posted sounds too much like the old OSO. And if that is how it will be at SOS, might as well hang on OSO and enjoy that nonsense with a larger crowd of boaters.

I've never met CS personally and I've never had anything but good interactions with him online. Maybe that is due to my position ouside the inner circle. Or maybe due to my Patron level of commitment.

There are two main reasons I want CS to come forward with evidence of his boat ownership:
1. He claimed ownership of so many boats as a means of credibility.
2. I very well could have been someone who questioned something he said in a post and then been the target of a direct, viscious and derogatory post berating me because he has owned so many more performance boats than me.

This may all sound petty and redundant. But considering the breadth of allegations, I really would like CS to refute these boat ownership concerns. It will go a long way to refuting what people have been saying about him and allow the rest of us to start balancing our opinions.

So I ask you Chris, as a Patron level contributor to SOS who has no beef in this game, and who has never had anything but good dealings with you in the past, please come forward with some proof and discredit these guys.

Changes at Serious Thread?
 

The Changes at Serious thread is gone...

Some things never change...

Dont want anyone think we arent paying attention.

For any advertisers being approached by SOS, this is yesterdays activity.


OSO: 68T, 1010 posts



SOS: 4T , 127 posts

35 posts in the SVL thread.
48 posts in the raise postcount thread.

There is a "What do the members think?" thread over on The Dock on SOS. Place this exact post there or in a new thread on SOS. There is a reason you asked the question here and not there.

Yea but does that post and thread count total include the now deleted "Changes at SOS" thread? I hate to short change the activity there by not counting deleted threads. :angry-smiley-038:

So you're Munson's dad or Big Ern's dad?

Glad the kid has a hobby, not quite as cool as powerboating in a 100 mph Fountain but.......

It was funny once, not Tommy Boy funny like you can watch it 50 times though......

Totally agree. But they are all reading this thread and will see it.

A: To be a Professional Bowling Association member you must have an average of 200 or better with 36 games. From www.pba.com

I would suggest that you get the kid signed up for the PBA Tour.....If he can average 240......You'll be rich!!!!!!!! Some dude just won $40,000 last week by winning the tournament with a 218 avg!!!

Think of the boat that you could buy!:drink:

Crap, I'd have to play 9-pin for that average :eek:

Still in practice as a beginner. Some nights I'm between 175 and 205, some nights not. My high 3-game series now is 578, on slightly dry lanes. I'll have to play more than 5 games a week to get a better boat.

Staying on topic, does CS have close personal PBA friends that could give an assist? I was looking for an Apache ball, no luck yet :lolhit:

:lolhit:

He also likes to be with me in the 100 mph Fountains LOL

NEW for 2010, the Apache Bowling Ball. Doesnt knock the pins over, it crushes them!

218?? Thats it? He bowled a couple high 220's games yesterday. I'm going to take him out hustling.

Forget hustlin, especially in Jersey. You'll end up with a prosthetic hand!!! Put him on the PBA TOUR!!! LOL
