Convention-Center Setting Weber Re-Writes PBA History with Marathon Open Victory
Wows Bowlers at USBC
Allowing Williams To Win “Player of the Year” Award
Women’s Championships
EL PASO, Texas—With
the first week of the 2010
United States Bowling Congress Women’s Championships coming to a close, more
and more bowlers are appreciating the conversion of the El
Paso Convention and Performing Arts Center into a one-ofa-kind bowling facility.
The 2010 event marks the
first time in the tournament’s
91-year history that the USBC
Women’s Championships has
been held in a conventioncenter setting. Since 1997, the
tournament has been held at
the National Bowling Stadium
in Reno, Nev., every third year,
but all other events were held
in traditional bowling centers.
From the world’s largest
mobile scoreboard to a unique
vendor area, many of the
bowlers find the new additions
to the tournament to be step in
the right direction and look forward to seeing a similar set-up
in Syracuse, N.Y., for the 2011
Women’s Championships.
Carol Goebel of Fond du
Lac, Wis., found the convention-center setting and the city
of El Paso to be very welcoming. This was her 17th trip to
the Women’s Championships.
“I love it,” said Goebel,
who bowls at Karl Ray Lanes.
“This place is immaculate. It’s
great that they’re really catering to the women. It’s just
been an awesome experience.
Every person in El Paso has
been wonderful and friendly.”
Jessica Urias of South Lake
Tahoe, Calif., made her sixth
Women’s Championships appearance this year and enjoyed
the new look and feel.
“There’s no comparison,”
said Urias, who bowls regularly at Tahoe Bowl. “Some of
the past tournaments seemed
like a regular house tournament and not a national event.
The scoreboards are great, and
the stadium-like bleachers really let people take in the action.”
Urias also enjoyed the challenge on the tournament lanes
and likes that bowlers have to
make their best shots to score
well.
“Once the shot changed, it
was a challenge to me to find
the right line,” Urias said. “But
that’s my job as a bowler- to
find the right look.”
Tracy Forst of West Jordan, Utah, believes a lot of
the bowlers will be surprised
when they walk into the El
Paso Convention and Performing Arts Center this year.
“I think a lot of them will
see it and think that it’s pretty
cool,” said Forst, who made
her 20th tournament appearance. “A lot of them have
probably never seen one of the
builds at the Open (Championships), so it will be a surprise.
This is one of the reasons I really wanted to bowl this year.”
Forst also saw the advantages of the event being held

BALTIMORE—Hall
of
Famer Pete Weber of St. Ann,
Mo., re-wrote the Professional
Bowlers Association history
book Sunday when he defeated
top qualifier Mike Scroggins
of Amarillo, Texas, 268-224,
to win the Lumber Liquidators
Marathon Open at AMF Country Club Lanes.
With his 35th career victory, breaking his tie for third
place on the all-time PBA Tour
titles list with Mark Roth, Weber denied Scroggins’ bid to
become 2009-10 PBA Player
of the Year, and handed that
crown to his long-time rival,
Walter Ray Williams Jr. of
Ocala, Fla.
Williams therefore becomes the first to win the PBA
Player of the Year title seven
times, breaking a tie with the
late Earl Anthony. Williams,
with 47 career titles, and Anthony, with 43, are now the
only two with more PBA titles
than Weber.
“I feel like I just won my
first title,” the teary-eyed Weber said. “I don’t know what to
say. It’s been three years since
I won. I thought I was never
going to win again.”
Weber led the title match
throughout, starting with five
strikes before converting a
single-pin spare. He then
threw another four strikes
to end Scroggins’ hopes for
a third 2009-10 title and his
first Player of the Year award.
Scroggins entered the finals in
“900” Global is a big hit in ABTA/Brunswick West Covina Event. Brunswick West Covina Lanes was host of
the ABTA Easter Event with “900” Global presenting the “Dare To Compare” Ball presentations and demonstrations there. From the left, Dave Smart, Director of Sales for “900” Global, and “900” Global Staffers/
local standouts/ professional Bowlers Brandon Mc Ginness and Missy Bellinder were on hand to assist and
instruct the bowlers who participated in the ball comparison presentation for the ABTA Members.

Oil Pattern Used
by Bill Vint
a three-way title in the Player
of the Year competition, but
he needed to win the title because he trailed Williams in
the overall competition points
tie-breaker.
“So Walter Ray owns me
another one,” Weber said,
referring to the payback he
wants because of Williams’
dominance over Weber on television. “But I said yesterday, if
Mike was going to win Player
of the Year, he was going to
have to earn it and I’m sure the
other guys on the show felt the
same way.
“Mike, I’m sorry I shot 268
at you…not,” Weber grinned.
On breaking his titles tie
with Roth, Weber said, “I never thought I’d get to 34 titles,
let alone pass Mark Roth. He
was my idol growing up. I feel

Was Pete Webers “Chop” for Stone or Scroggins?
Walter Wins Seventh PBA Player of the Year Honor
by Jerry Schneider
BALTIMORE — For the
second consecutive year, the
Professional Bowlers Association’s Chris Schenkel Player
of the Year race came down to
the final game and the eventual
winner had to watch from the
sidelines to await his fate.
When it was over, Walter
Ray Williams Jr. won a record
seventh Player of the Year
honor at the conclusion of the
season-ending Lumber Liquidators Marathon Open in Baltimore April 4, after going into
the event tied in the points race
with Bill O’Neill. Mike Scroggins was third, a longshot, but
still in the mix until he lost in
the title match to Pete Weber.
Williams thus became the
first to win the PBA Player
of the Year title seven times,
breaking a tie with the late
Earl Anthony. And at age 50,
Williams also became the oldest to win the crown breaking
the previous record of 45 held
by Anthony.
He also is thought to be
the oldest player in any major
sport to win his sport’s seasonlong points or “most valuable”
title.
“I could never have imagined winning Player of the
Year seven times and at my
age I didn’t think it was even
a possibility,” Williams said.
“But after I won the first tournament of the season I thought
if I could win one more, or a

LAS VEGAS—The Vegas
Travel league concluded it’s
current season on Monday,
March 29, at The Orleans and
Darren was a perfect host at
the control desk.
In fact, we should add we
had perfect hosts in every way
from Melvin, our driver for
Odessey Bus Charters; Jerry,
our Fremont Hotel reservations
expert; and most especially
Roberta McNaught and Karen
Mauricio entertaining us on
the bus. Our Barstow stops to
and from Vegas was also great
for shopping and food.
We regret reporting last
minute cancellations for Merlene Eash and Lu Colussi and
the unexpected illness for
Erma Palmer in Vegas. Her
daughters-in-law, Ruth and
Sandy, took good care of her
and she returned home feeling ok. However, she will be
seeing the doctor and calling
us later regarding what might
have happened.
Obviously, the 57-seat bus
provided plenty of seats for
just over 20 passengers so we
all stretched out, played bingo,
shut-box, and enjoyed gab sessions enroute to Vegas. Needless to say, we all mostly slept
on the way home Tuesday.
Forty-one bowlers participated in singles and doubles
for a prize fund exceeding
$1,000 and Roberta McNaught
was the big winnier. Every
year there’s always one super
star that cashes big time and
although Roberta has always
managed a prize or two, she
never has hit top spot for a big
payoff.
Well, she did this time with
662 and shared the spotlight
with Mary DeFord, (also long
overdue) leading the first two
spots in the 16-place prize
fund payoff.
Low to cash was 1264 in
Doubles and 610 was low to
cash in the 16 place singles
prize fund.
There were many ties in
singles and doubles and we
commend our Vegas Sweeps
WEBER continued from page 1
kind of bad about going past him, but not really.”
Weber advanced to the title match with a 233-212 victory
over Brad Angelo of Lockport, N.Y., in the semifinal match. Angelo eliminated defending Marathon Open champion Wes Malott
of Pflugerville, Texas, in the opening game, 207-192, and Chris
Barnes of Double Oak, Texas, 256-227, in the second game before losing to Weber.
The championship round was conducted on the Dick Weber
lane condition, one of seven used during the tournament. Scroggins, as top qualifier, selected that pattern for the TV finals.
“It was Mike’s choice, but winning on the pattern named in
honor of my father makes it even more special,” Weber said.
The Lumber Liquidators Marathon Open concluded the PBA
Tour’s 2009-10 regular season. Champions from the Cheetah, Viper, Chameleon, Scorpion and Shark Championships conducted
in Detroit last August will compete in a special PBA Experience
Showdown presented by BOWL.COM while top finishers from
six PBA Women’s Series events will compete in the PBA Women’s Series Showdown presented by BOWL.COM next week at
the International Bowling Campus in Arlington, Texas. The PBA
Experience Showdown will air on ESPN on Sunday, April 11, at
1 p.m. Eastern and the Women’s Series Showdown will air on
Sunday, April 18, also at 1 p.m. Eastern.
Following the Arlington special events, 20 top PBA players
based upon 2008-09 points will travel to Tokyo April 22-25 to
compete in the 25th anniversary DYDO Japan Cup. Patrick Allen
of Wesley Chapel, Fla., is defending champion.

Director, Phyllis Baldwin,
and league president, Roberta
McNaught, for doing scores
and payoffs so quickly and
expertly.
Everybody appeared to
have a great time again this
year, and 92 year old Pat Willmore said, “sign me up for
next year”.
Several hands were raised
when we asked how many
were gambling winners. But
the one who gets the door prize
has to be Nan McGill who
rates that honor every year and
she really hit ‘em big time this
trip on tables and slots.
My personal thanks to
league members, and our Vegas guests, for making 2010
another memorable year and
we are looking forward to
2010-2011. The league will
take a summer bye, as usual,
but return for a formation
meeting 10 a.m. Monday, July
19 in the Cal Bowl conference
room for the 53rd consecutive
season.
Anyone interested in joining this classy classified 675
Foursome may call me for
further information at (562)
423-1567.
We thank Charlie Kinstler
for letting us use Cal Bowl for
our departure to Vegas and our
return.
Also, if you bowl a league
this summer, please make it in
one of our sponsoring centers.

WEST COVINA—One of
the Good Guys, David Godinez was at it again in his favorite house on the ABTA
circuit, West Covina Lanes.
He stepped up and won his
fourth ABTA Title downing
upstart Holden Au in the title
game to take a nice $1,950 to
the bank!
In our return to West Covina, a great turnout of 281 entrants saw cut scores of men
+39 and the ladies made it at
+15. Super Seniors added to
the board were Rico Cayton,
Javier Avila and Roberta Nakunz.
Due to the turnout, a whopping 69 bowlers made the
semifinals all cashing in. They
took the floor and we saw David Godinez lead the way at
+183 to sit out and bowl for
the title. Right behind was
ABTA regular Ariel O’Campo
at +111 who would receive a
first round bye in the single
elims and enter in the second
round.
It took a +49 for the men
and +8 for the 3 guaranteed ladies to make the top 16 single
elim finals.
In round One, losers were
Sonia Coronado, Tomas Licauco, Fred Go, Glen Matsumoto, Sol Cericos, Jimmy
Wong and Tony Tang. They
cashed checks of $120 in 1016th places. In round two we
had William Garrett, Bryan
Moore, Youna Yun, and Pablo Castro fallout. They were
6-9th places and $130 each.
Round three got exciting
and saw Holden Au out strike
(562) 868-7164
Julie Nguyen 250-229.Greg
Velarde edged Ariel O’Campo
200-198. Julie and Ariel were
4th and 5th $140 with fine
bowling and Greg and Holden
to meet for the right to bowl
Godinez for the title.
This game was so close.
Holden held on in a nail biter
in a 224-222 win. Greg was
third and $210 with Holden
off to a title showdown vs David Godinez.
The title game is on and
Holden led off. This was close
as both bowlers were having
a few problems as the pair
seemed tough. Holden, not
sure if he was tired, seemed to
have lost his magic in the title
game. He in fact, was in the
game until David tossed a big
double in frames 7-8. Holden
couldn’t answer that, and the
title went to the gentleman
from Redondo Beach David
Godinez
182/200-138/184.
Great bowling by a very nice
man. A title well deserved!
David is nice and respectful to
all. Congrats!
Nice bowling by Holden
Au, also one of the Good
Guys, in the runner up position. He really did well, came
through in exciting fashion until the end. He is a great guy!
Always fun to be around Mr.
Au!!:- )) He almost won his
first title.
Nice bowling by past champion, Greg Velarde who really
bowled well at West Covina.
He could have won this one!
Tourney Hi Qualifiers were
Alex Mao +209 (men)Faye Josefat led the ladies +77, and
they get paid entries.
The doubles were topped
by Mao and Tim Tran at 1446
good for $190. Holden Au and
Jimmy Wong 1371 $170, Faye
Josefat and Glen Matsumoto
1356 $160. We paid a super
27 places and $2310 in the
$5.00 doubles!
The Match Game WAS
UNmatched at 226 and was
worth $3,500 and will be
$3,500 at least four more tournaments with the carryover
cash. Match Game is again
$3,500 Saturday at Cerritos
Lanes.
The Match Series worth
$1,876 also was UNMatched
at 602, and with the carryover
of $1,876. We will estimate
the pot at $2,300 Saturday.
The 3-6-9 Roll-off of
$1,200 carried over as William
Garrett eliminated the field
and then missed on shot #1.
We go for $1,300 Saturday at
Cerritos. William got $50 for
beer money!
David Godinez hails from
Redondo Beach and used a
Smash drilled by Frank Bellinder at Saddleback Lanes. He
is single and available!
He gives thanks to all the
hard work, bowling practice
and of course the ABTA Staff
and Bob for a great tournament. Thanks to MGN Communications and Sysco Gold
where he is employed 9 years.
Holden Au is from Rowland Heights and used a Cherry
Vibe drilled by Jimmy Wong.
He is single ladies, and thanks
the Mou Liu Bowlers and everyone alive -:))

outside of a traditional bowling center.
“The old bowling centers
didn’t have enough room,”
said Forst, who bowls regularly at Bonwood Bowl in South
Salt Lake, Utah. “This is way
better. It’s not as crowded, has
a nice environment and good
lane conditions.”
The tournament kicked off
March 27, and bowlers will
continue making the trip to El
Paso until the 100-day event
wraps up on July 4. Nearly
6,000 teams (30,000 bowlers) are expected to compete
this year. Presenting sponsors
for the 2010 USBC Women’s
Championships are Nationwide Insurance; Kegel, official
lane maintenance provider; US
Steltronic, official scoring system; Brunswick; Storm Bowling Products Inc.; and the El
Paso Convention and Visitors
Bureau. For more information

major, that I could be in contention at the end.”
During the 2009-10 season
Williams won two titles - the
Motor City Open and the United States Bowling Congress
Masters for his eighth major to improve his all-time career
titles record to 47. He had five
championship round appearances and his titles in 200910 extended his record run of
consecutive seasons with at
least one title to 17.
As it turned out Scroggins
almost achieved the biggest
upset of his career, advancing
to the ESPN final as the top
qualifier which put him into a
tie with Williams and O’Neill
in Player of the Year points.
Because Williams barely
missed the TV final, winning
the Marathon Open would
have given Scroggins his first
Player of the Year title. But
Scroggins, who played a decisive role in last season’s Player
of the Year race with his win
in the U.S. Open, suffered the
same fate himself this time
when Weber denied him the
honor handing the crown to
Williams.
The tie between the three
players was broken by virtue
of Williams having earned
his eighth Harry Smith Point
Leader Award, also a record. In
the overall competition points
race for the season, Williams
held a comfortable lead over
O’Neill and Scroggins.
California WBA “Firsts”
USBC Honors Tina Martin
Tina Martin of Novato named recipient of the USBC Joyce
Deitch Trailblazer Award to be presented May 1, at the USBC
convention in Reno, Nevada.
Tina has a solid record of dedication to bowling and as attested by many “getting the job done.” A charter member of
the California Bowling Writers Association, she currently
serves as Treasurer but that’s
just one of the many leadership positions she has held
since she began bowling in
1967. The ultimate volunteer,
Tina has served bowling as a
delegate – state and national;
state committees; youth programs; Marin County WBA
President and is now a board
member. She writes, edits and
distributes the Country Club
Bowl News newsletter eight times a year and twice a year it is
mailed to all bowlers from a database she maintains. Tina has
been secretary of leagues for over 30 years and is proud of having perfect attendance in her league for 17 years and as a matter
of fact she has missed only twice in 24 years in her other league!
She modestly calls her one claim to fame winning the “C” Division in the state BVL tournament in 2000.
Tina bowls in the Inter-Association and North Bay Travel
Leagues, which gives her the opportunity to keep her hand in and
promote coming events to a wide range of bowling leaders.
She is a certified bowling coach through YABA, California
WBA, and USA Bowling Level II. She has corralled thousands
of bowlers to tournaments of all kinds supporting state, national
and youth competition. She says she enjoys working with kids.
She admits to growing up as a “Summer River Rat” in Guerneville where her family had a place on the river and where she
met her husband Jim. First date? Bowling. She married Jim in
1964 and they have two sons – Jeff and Bob. Jim is now retired
from the elevator business.
She is currently employed by Country Club Bowl in San Rafael as their League & Events Coordinator and helps with Marketing & Promotions. If we bottled all the energy it took to do all
of the things Tina Martin has done we could go to the moon.
Tina believes in keeping a positive attitude and working as a
team where she says there is no “I”.
Mary Lynly – CBW Publicity
“It was a season where a lot
of guys had very good years
but no one really dominated,
which probably played in my
favor,” Williams added. “I just
had a little better year. I would
have liked to have won it by
making the finals (of the Marathon Open), but there were
five other guys who had a better tournament than me.”
Williams, who began his
full-time Tour career in 1983
and has competed in 723 Tour
events, earned his Player of
the Year crowns over a 24year span. His previous Player
of the Year honors came in the
1986, ’93, ’96, ’97, ’98 and
2002-03 seasons.
Even with all he has accomplished, Williams lists a Tournament of Champions victory
and a 300 game on television
as two goals he would still like
to accomplish. Next season’s
Tournament of Champions
will feature a record $1 mil-
lion prize fund and $250,000
first prize.
“As long as I’m still competitive and feel good I’ll keep
going,” Williams said. “I’m
really looking forward to next
year’s Tournament of Champions - that will be so big.”
Williams’ plans for the near
future include competing in his
25th Japan Cup April 22-25
(he is the only player who has
competed in every Japan Cup
in its modern configuration)
and making his Senior Tour
debut sometime this season.
“I plan to bowl Senior Tour
events this season but it’s a
pretty busy schedule the next
few months with some possible schedule conflicts with
Teams USA and other events,
so I’m not quite sure how
many I’ll be able to bowl,”
Williams said. “I hope to be
able to bowl at least three, but
I’ll have to see how the schedule works out.”

LAKEWOOD — The rain came and washed everything
clean so now the grass, tree leaves and flowers all have

Enjoy it while it’s here.

Bowlium 6 Gamer Results
by Herbert Jones
MONTCLAIR—Bong Hwong wins again. Comes from behind to win in the last game. Jim who was leading after 2 games
couldn’t carry the last 2 games and the Greek church in the 8 frame of the last game forces him to strike in the ninth and the first strike
in the ten frame. Struck in the ninth but left a flat 10 pin in the tenth to lose by 8.

DOWNEY — “THREADWORKS” gave “BRYLAW” 3 severe
blows Monday night to knock them down to third and take over
the top spot themselves. And glad they don’t have to play them
again next week! “THREADWORKS” and “KATIE JAKES” will
meet for the umpteen time this season.
Either “BRYLAW” (20) and ‘HERZOG INSURANCE” (20)
sitting in 3rd and 4th, could easily jump into first next week. This
round has really been tight and the lead has changed weekly.
The scores bowled next week — April 12 — will complete the
averages going into the book for this year. YEAH! Fellows, make
sure your names are spelled correctly and your sanction card is up
to date. You could loose all your games!!
Let’s take a look at the high individual efforts this week.
High Series and High Game go to Mikey Villareal 299/695.
Other noteable games: Kevin Valmonte 267, Raul Rosales 258,
Mike Cammarata 257, Paul Barraco 257 and Lee Liu 257/674.
Steve Gurrieri and Raul Rosales, both on the “HERZOG
INSURANCE” team matched a 682 series. Paul Barraco led the
“SYSCO” Kids with his 680.
Checking the big board on the concourse, the ‘YEAR TO
DATE” standings, the top six are: “WESTERN PACIFIC”,
“J.A.T.”, “STRIKEHARD”, “SYSCO”, “KATIE JAKES”, and
“THREADWORKS”/”HERZOG INSURANCE” tied. $20,000
for first place can give you a lot to shoot for!
You should all thank the sponsors for the added money!!!

IN THE GOOD OLE DAYS
by David Yamauchi
Next Tournament This Sunday
JAT Member/Adult Doubles – Canoga Park Bowl
Huntoon-Hair-Booker Win First Triple-Club Trios
The first-ever Triple-Club Trios took the lanes at Keystone
and a huge field of 69 bowlers teamed up for this new, fun
event. Each bowler bowled 5 games of qualifying and after 15
games per team the team of Bobby Hornacek, Andrew Stewart and Mason Sherman led the field at +334 followed closely
by Brett Huntoon, DeeRonn Booker and Charlie Hair at +264
and Lawrence Merriweather, Jeremy Glover and Will Jackson
at +261. Low-to-qualify was Dara Ajimine, Jerome Jordan and
Cory Koyanagi at +37. The bowlers then took the lanes for 6
games of 3-man Baker with the top-4 teams advancing to the
Baker stepladder rolloffs. In the first match, 4th-seeded Kaitlin
Mayall, Nicole Shepard and Brandon Kraye fell to 3rd-seeded
Justin Villa, Pat Smith, Devin Bidwell 194-184. Villa-SmithBidwell advanced to meet 2nd-seeded Wesley Low Jr, James Hefley and Matt Jones. Both teams were bowling great but in the
end Villa-Smith-Bidwell squeaked by with a 215-209 win. They
then advanced to the Championship Match against top-seeded
DeeRonn Booker, Brett Huntoon and Charlie Hair. It was a back
and forth match but some late open frames made it close and
anchorman Devin Bidwell struck out to tie the match at 181. The
match went to a 8th-9th-10th frame rolloff but a handful of big-4
by Pat Smith in the 9th frame of the rolloff was too much to
overcome and Brett Huntoon, DeeRonn Booker and Charlie Hair
took home the title. Congratulations!
JAT Member/Adult Doubles This Sunday
410 and Under Handicap and 411+ Scratch
Our second JAT Member/Adult Doubles will be this Sunday,
April 11th at Canoga Park Bowl. Note: There are two divisions410 and under handicap and 411 and over scratch. Cost for the
tournament is $80 per team ($40 per bowler). Please come early
to check-in- it is always a crowded tournament! Check-in will
open at 8:15 and practice starts at 9:00. See you all on the lanes
at Canoga!
Sometimes it’s fun to share
dumb things you did years
ago. I laughed out loud when
I recalled this story and I hope
you will also. I think it is more
fun to laugh at yourself than at
others but it’s Ok if you laugh
with me.
At the time of this happening, I was married and had
three little toddlers. My husband and I both loved bowling; I’m using the word love
here because I mean it literally.
We were a young couple just
getting started in life and our
income was limited. So, many
times we bowled in separate
leagues so we could alternate
baby-sitting. We also shared
one car, at the time.
One night I went to bowl in
the 9pm ladies scratch league
at Eagle Rock Lanes in Eagle
Rock. I bowled as usual, probably not too good or not too
bad, since I don’t remember.”
I just remember that after
the league, a group of us gals
went into the coffee shop,
had our coffee, and shared the
events of the night. I vaguely
recall a woman who left early
asking me if I needed a ride
home and I said “no thanks.”
Well, after a lingering session of bragging, complain-
ing and gossiping we said
our good nights and I started
wandering out to the parking
lot while reaching in my purse
and feeling around for my car
keys. The parking lot was almost empty at that time of the
night so finding my car should
have been a “no brainier.” As
I continued to search for my
keys I recognized that my car
was nowhere to be seen. Panic
set in. I couldn’t find my keys
and my car was gone. OMG!
I must have left the keys in
the car and someone stole it. I
continued to look on all sides
of the almost empty parking
lot. No car…no keys.
I remember how fear
gripped my heart. How would
I get home and how would my
husband get to work tomorrow? Then I suffered another
panic attack when I remembered that my husband’s bowling ball was in the trunk. Oh
lord, I thought, my husband
will kill me; my carelessness
has caused the loss of our only
car and my husband’s bowling ball. This was a fate worse
than death.
I was in tears when I went
back in the bowling center. I
went to the deskman and asked
him to call the police so I could
be enjoying themselves when
I was in such a crises. My tears
stopped and I’m sure my face
went from “poor pitiful me” to
“ a demon from hell.” I stared
at the two heartless men, with
sheer resentment in my heart,
as they walked toward me.
“We found your car,” the
tallest one said. Then they
both tried to stifle another bit
of laughter. “OMG” I yelled,
as I grabbed one then the other
and rewarded them with “Hero’s hugs.” They were both
kind enough to accept the hugs
before the told me my car was
at home.
I hadn’t driven it that night;
a friend had given me a ride to
the center.

report my stolen car. When the
cops arrived, I was still gushing with tears even though
many bowlers tried to assure
me that the police would find
my car.
I told the police how my
car had been stolen and went
through a series of questions
describing the car. I even described my husband’s bowling
ball and bag, although I didn’t
see them writing that down.
When they asked for the year,
model and licenses plate number of my car I didn’t know
the answers so I gave them my
home phone number so they
could call my husband for that
kind of “technical” information.
One of the officers (the
tallest one) walked out of my
sight to call my husband and
the other stayed by my side
and offered me some comfort and assurance that the car
would be found.
Soon I saw the tall officer
motion to the other one to come
where he was. I watched and
waited to hear of any second
hand comments that my husband had to say, but all I really
noticed was that the two cops
started laughing hysterically. I
was just livid that they could

STUDIO CITY — What kind of bowling fans are you? I didn’t see
a single one of you at Lebowski Fest this past weekend. I thought

some old sodas on us.
Niceness Quote of the Week: Jesus Quintana: What’s this day
of rest? I don’t care! It don’t matter to Jesus. But you’re not foolin’
me, man. You might fool the league office, but you don’t fool Jesus.
This bush league psyche-out stuff. Laughable, man - ha ha! I would
have beat you on Saturday. I beat you next Wednesday instead.
Wooo! You got a date Wednesday, baby! (cussing omitted)
