Nice Try Drew

Not a winning night at Greed League. We won the first game by a huge amount, then lost the second, then lost the third badly, so we didn’t even take wood. 2 - 5 for the night.

I threw 24 over the first game, then rolled a 254 in the second and we lost that one anyway. By the third game I was exhausted, and all the aches and pains from the past couple of days ganged up on me, so my approach was short on the last lunge step. Which means that my line was fine but the ball was going short about a foot and coming in way too high, so my score really suffered. What should have been an easy 600 series wound up being in the mid 500s. Meh. But hey, I earned another refrigerator magnet award for the 250+ game. Whoopee!

We’re still holding on in second place, but we’d better start posting some wins if we’re going to keep it.

OK, and I’m off to work. The 2 day job on that house is stretching into 2 1/2 days because of the season. The rain is over, and it’s still pretty mild out for late November, but there just isn’t any darn usable daylight at this time of the year. 7 hours instead of the 10+ you get in the summer.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
