That's cool!  Someone who works for washingtonpost.com is a lurker and
showed up with his daughter?  And post.com has promotional BOWLING
SHIRTS?  There must be some interesting backstory there.  Can someone
post a pic of someone wearing said bowling shirt?  And pics in general
of the event?  That would be great!  So you were about 7 people? 
That's a good number for bowling for 1 lane or team I think, isn't it?
 Can't remember if there is a limit to how many per lane.  The shirts
alone should have made it worth it--we are now officially sanctioned
by post.com.  We're legit!  

BTW have you ever noticed that sanction has 2 opposite meanings?  It
means both approval and punishment.

see definitions 3 and 4c
I've always thought that was confusing.

Let's all offer our condolences to Ray for the major suckitude of his
beloved Baltimore Crows today.  Oh, I mean Ravens, Baltimore Ravens. 
Crow is what they were eating.  My bad.

shirts, to be exact.  Special thanks to Tim, our new favorite lurker
who stopped by to give us all free bowling shirts from the
washingtonpost.com promotional closet.  We are so stylin' now.  And
Tim, be sure to thank your daughter again for bowling that frame for
me, she really upped my score.  Maybe you should encourage her
interest--there might be college bowling scholarships after all.
