I don't have a baby but i'm down for a night of bowling. If so, I predict i will have the lowest score of the night. I usually bowl about an earth-shattering 98.

take baby bungle bowling before she starts walking...naomi came to the bowling alley w/ us a couple years ago for the barganza x-mas party...and man 2 year olds love to run around...me & mrs. deion lost track of her...next thing we heard was an announcement on the PA if anyone wanted to claim her...we thought about seeing what pick she would go in the draft, but decided she would probably fetch more of a signing bonus in few years w/ some additional seasoning in college.

Bannister was probably 'roiding it.

Bowling is fun as an event but not if you are not very good at it - ie me. Ping-pong in Brooklyn on the other hand ...

Don't miss the bars, love spending time with the fam.

i had to karate chop a musician on the f-train today. no lie. he kept singing 'here comes the sun' on his 6-string and walking up and down inside the car. for those of you who don't live in brooklyn, york st. to e. broadway is a long stop. you could almost do a full beatles medley in the time it takes for the f to get under the east river. so he walks up to me and he's playing for me and there's a little hat tied to his hip with some $1s in there. and he looks at me like 'hey how about a few bucks.' so i just stood up and chopped him on the delt about two inches up the neck from where the guitar strap was protecting him. then i grabbed the bar, hoisting myself upward, and caught him in a reverse thigh crush hold and told him i would release him only if he stopped playing until i got off the train. he agreed that we would stop playing. nobody else on the train reacted -- such blase in nyc -- but i sense they were behind me 100%.

oh yeah like you all never karate chopped anybody.

you should have smashed his guitar over his head and just before you hit him said 'here come's the sun!"

since i'm posting stuff on verbungle, i might as well say that hans definitely would have bowled 185 -- my prediction -- on the nose if he could have mustered a goddamn spare in the early frames.

I just wanted to let you know that I fanatically/proudly/dependent-ly still frequent The Bar, and recall a few - somewhat - memorable moments we shared there. Pbdotc never intended harm, for the record.
