Well, another week of bowling is done.
I had one bad game (96) but my other games were in the 120 range, which isn't bad. My league high score as of last week was a 141, which really pleased me. This week, my teammate (Pete) scored a 213.
Foot in mouth moment came for me during the second game, when I bowled two strikes back-to-back. As I picked up my ball, one of the guys on the team I was playing against said to me " If you bowl like that again, I'll have to hurt you." He was about 6 inches taller than me, very fit, about 54 years old. He (of course) was kidding, so I just smirked and turned to bowl.
As I was standing there, I saw out of the corner of my eye that he was standing behind me, so I turned to look at him.....he tried to look intimidating, and without thinking, said to him......
"Oh please......as if I haven't had guys who are bigger than you come up from behind."
I turned to bowl and then it hit me how it came out.
I then heard him say to everyone else "Well how would he know that?"
So I started to laugh, threw the ball, and missed the strike by one pin. I turned to him and he says "See, that's what you get for lying like that!"
