Bowling for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
We all bowled three games to support Ciara's fundraising effort on March 29, 2003. There were bunches of other people there, but the ones I knew were Ciara, Angela, Niamh, and the other twosome in our bowling team "We Really Stink," John and Lainie.
We lived up to our name, consistently posting double-digit scores all night. Here's how I (am forced to) look at it: The fewer pins you knock down, the more fun you have. Derek's stellar 122 in the third game was our best effort.
Lainie, John, and one of the beneficiaries of this marathon, Kim
Angela, Niamh, and a friend whose name I can't remember
I did, however, manage to win two gift certificates: one for a Soup restaurant (www.zoup.com) and one for a Scrapbooking store, which was carefully arranged through a swap with a lady at Angela's table. I originally won a GC for Dick's Sporting Goods, and she the Scrapbooking GC, but she was more than happy to trade because she is not willing to join "the cult."
I could see myself getting addicted to bowling, though. I like the little leg kick-up business at the end. Derek says I have decent form, and with practice I could get much better. But what does HE know????
