Many of you are too young to remember the Halloween Storm of 1991, but there are quite a few of use that will never forget that day!! I know Cheryl and I had just purchased the bowling alley in August of 1991 and obviously this was our first year in business. On October 31, 1991, I remember it was a fairly nice morning, but then it started raining and started to get colder and colder. The rain turned to sleet, then snow. “Wow” we really got dumped on. We had snow until spring!!! Glad we don’t get snow like that too often!!!

His wife begins screaming at him and his friend just sits and listens.
Wife: “My hair and makeup are not done, the house is a mess, the dishes are not done, I’m still in my PJs and I can’t be bothered with cooking tonight!! Why did you bring him home?”
Husband: “Because he’s thinking about getting married and I promised him a demo!”
