bowling with drunken actuaries

[magid]

Something I can safely say I've never done until now. Yes, candlepin bowling (you know, the little balls, like a cross between real bowling and bocci (sp?)) with giddy actuarial types. Actually, I had a lot of fun. The place looks like the 70s haven't ended yet, and we were all silly enough that gutter balls were entertaining... 10 frames, and I managed 60 points (2 frames I had no points at all). Not a great score, but that didn't matter. Glad my friends got through their tests.

Bocce

In case you're interested, the preferred spelling is bocce. That's the same as the Italian word. However, bocci and boccie are also acceptable.

Thanks.
(I admit, I thought I was doing pretty well not to spell it like those chocolates, you know...bacci.(though, of course, too lazy to look it up one way or the other last night.))eµ

Baci
