Get out!  I never knew that.  But then again, I'm used to candlepin bowling, the real  kind of bowling. 

Candlepin is the original, 10 pin is the improved version.

Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

Replying so I can find this quote when needed in the future!   :-* :-* :-*

I can understand that.  Being incorrect so often, it's very rare that you see this in print.

"Improved"?  I think not.  Candlepin involves actual skill.  As opposed to tenpin, where anyone can hurl that big-ass ball and score at least a 150.  Oops.

Yeah, Chuck, get the rainbow ball.  It'll distract everyone from, well, you know.

Big talk from a man who didn't even know they drilled the holes after they purchase the ball.

Or at least that's my experience with my Dad's bowling career.  Chuckie's in the big leagues now!!

My daddy didn't bowl much. He thought bowlers were all ... oh, never mind!

I never went in for bowling, either. But I used to play a mean game of croquet.  ;D
