Brian Casey rolled another “700” over the weekend with 714 on the Sunday Nite Mixed League. Brian has been on fire this year!!! Eric Dorwin also put up a “700” on the Hometown League. Dorwin bowled a 703. Eric bowls on the “Strikers” team and that was his first of the year here at the Ol’ Rockpile!!
We got about another month to go with our 9-Pin Tap Tournament.
Many of the leagues will finish up in the next couple of weeks!!
Jennifer Kyle converted the very tricky 7-9-10 split on the Wednesday Nite Ladies league.

Invisible
An invisible man married an invisible woman. Their kids weren’t much to look at either!!
A college professor got up and said, “If God really exists, then let him knock me out of my chair!” Nothing happened. The class was quiet. He said, “Now I will wait two more minutes.”
A Marine veteran stood up, punched him in the face, knocking him out and off his chair, then sat back down.
As the professor came to, he looked at his student and said, “WHY DID YOU DO THAT???”
The Marine said, “GOD was busy protecting my buddies still fighting for your right to say and do stupid stuff like this, so…He sent me!!”
