The New Bowling Ball

| | Comments (3)

This is my brand new bowling ball. It came into the world last night, unblemished and freshly drilled. It weighs a healthy thirteen pounds and is very well-behaved. Its blended shades of blue, green and purple give it a handsome quality.

The only thing missing from the ball is my name, unless 33B1508 is my new designation and I just wasn't aware of it. The next time I visit the pro shop, I'll have them personalize it with my first initial and the first two letters of my last name. I'll also have them insert an apostrophe and tack on an exclamation point. The engraved result is the profound sound I usually make when bowling. D'oh!

Oy! I didn't notice it before, but since you guys mention it, I can see it. Of course, now I can also see Pippin and Merry bowling, which is a little scary. :P
