Teenagers and Hillbillies

Ever noticed the high volume of teenagers and hillbillies in bowling alleys? I do not often have the opportunity to find myself in the bowling alley, mainly because every time I do decide to go real bowling (instead of Wii bowling) I find myself surrounded by thirteen year olds and tooth missing wonders fresh from the foothills. I think I need to stick with Wii bowling, as much fun as I find regular bowling it takes more will power then I have to be able not to kill the fifteen thirteen year olds sharing the lane adjacent to mine. I am beginning to believe that it's just me, that I have developed an intolerance to anyone from the ages 12-14 sometimes immature 15 year olds as well. I suppose I feel that since I do not have to deal with that level of selfish b.s. until little man hits that age group that I should not have it forced upon me in a public place. Let's face it, with my out spoken not so sunny attitude this means that I have a very hard time not bitch-slapping some minors and landing myself in jail for a very long time when they manage to do very stupid things. For example - If you get your bowling ball lodged in the gutter someone own up to the bowling guy instead of standing around shuffling fifteen pairs of feet and occasionally looking at I or The Sig as if we are going to do anything to about it. Do you think any of them actually went to ask the bowling guy for help? No, that would make to much sense. Bowling guy's child slave (I can only assume that is what this kid was) eventually notices the problem and strolls down the alley to fix it before returning to his slave stool. We left shortly after our last frame. I think the only thing worse then the teenagers in a bowling alley are the trailer trash rejects guzzling beer with straws stuck through gaps from their missing teeth. They hoot, they holler, they get feisty, and they drunkenly make out with their sister. They do bowl a pretty impressive game, but they are the walking reminder of why the south has a very bad reputation, and why higher education is a necessity. It will be awhile before I do any kind of bowling aside from Wii bowling!

Anyone hear about the mummy found in New York? A man was found in front of his television in his living room mummified last Thursday. He hadn't been seen since December 2005, his neighbors assumed he was in a long term care facility, no one realized he was slowly mummifying in front of his television due to the low humidity in his house. The television was still blaring when the police found him while responding to a routine broken pipe call. My comment on this is simple : Do you know of anyone other then a dead guy that could get away without paying his bills for over a year and not get cut off? Poor Lucky had to go through the cable ordeal from hell after missing one payment on accident!
