Bill’s blog

Most Monday nights, Jane and I have been getting together with our friends for bowling. The Brunswick in Norcross has a $1/game special on Monday and Thursday nights.

I bought a new ball after my fingers were getting too big for the old one. I also came to find out the old ball was drilled incorrectly. My new ball is an Ebonite Gamebreaker. My friend Darrin gave me his old wrist strap with finger supports. My game has improved significantly. I rolled 4 200 games in a row last week. I’ve been averaging at least 180 since the beginning of the year.

After really not having bowled in a long time (I’ve been bowling since I was old enough to pick up a ball) I’ve found myself interested in it again.

So I spent all day down at the Fulton County Courthouse after being summoned for Jury Duty. I wish I had known they have free wi-fi available. I sat for 6 hours before they told me I was free to go. At least we got a 90 minute lunch break. The weather was gorgeous so I walked a few blocks up to Rosa’s Pizza to have some of Atlanta’s best pizza for lunch.

Then when it was all over I decided to walk the 1.5 or so miles to Turner Field where they had us park. I still beat the shuttle bus that the other jurors were all standing waiting for.

A great first post on my new blog. The Barack Obama “Yes We Can” video. If you haven’t yet decided to vote for this man, you really should.

And then follow it up with this piece, showing the man who wants to be codger-in-chief:
