  • Thursday League: March 5, 2009

    This Thursday was by far my most successful league night. After recently breaking the 600 series a few weeks ago, I thought I had probably peaked for the season.  Well, I was wrong.  Last night I bowled my first 700, and what a 700 it was!

  • Somerset, KY and Ju-Jitsu

    Yesterday, we travelled to Somerset, KY to watch our nephew, Christoper Caldwell, compete in a small Ju-Jitsu tournament.  This is the first time I’d seen any kind of martial arts competition in the flesh and I must admit, I was impressed.

  • Thursday League: February 19th, 2009

    Okay.  So tonight I managed a 598 (202,216,180), just two pins short of the ever elusive 600 on Thursday night.  This is encouraging to me as it came off the back of a 627 on Sunday night, which tells me I’m starting to get the new release down.

  • Sunday League: February 1st, 2009

    Tonight got off to a good start.  I managed to bowl a 522 series, which isn’t bad.  It’s still a 173 average, but I would like to be bowling closer to 185 – 190.  I guess I can’t complain too much, seeing as this is my first season and all.

  • Changing ball reaction

    These past few weeks, I’ve spent a lot of time reading online, trying to find the best and most efficient means of getting the reactions you’re looking for out of the equipment you already have. Most of the literature I’ve come across has told me the best ways to change the reaction you get out…

  • My bowling ball arsenal

    I now have a basic three ball arsenal.  I have a Columbia-300 Arch Rival, a Brunswick Twisted Fury and a Columbia 300 White Dot for right hand spares, all weighing 15lbs.

  • Wasted effort, wasted time…

    Well, this past week has been by far the most frustrating week, since moving to the US.  The irony is, these frustrations were caused by some guy in the UK! Last week, I made contact with a prospective contract to do some work for him.  The original scope for the work was to markup and…

  • Christmas Eve ’08

    Well, today has been a rather uneventful day.  As mentioned in a previous post, our car is somewhat broken at the moment, after having the front-right CV joint break, rendering the car immobile.  As it turns out, the car has a large hex bolt in the front axle, surrounded by six 12-sided bolts.  Bloody German…

  • What a week

    This week has been a whirlwind week for me, with ups and downs and everything in between.  Somehow, I ended up working 30 hours in the first three days of the week (Monday – Wednesday), so I took it easy on Thursday, since I’m not able to invoice more than 40 hours a week.

  • Sleepless in… Hazard

    It’s now 3.07am and I CAN’T SLEEP!  Why?  You tell me! My wife is laying beside me fast asleep and all I can do is sit here and bang away at freakin keys until the wee small hours of the freakin morning!  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
