We have fun--that's what I like about bowling. You can have fun even if you
stink, unlike in, say, tennis. Every decade or so, I attempt to play
tennis, and it always consists of thirty-seven seconds of actually hitting
the ball and two hours of yelling, "Where did the ball go?" "Over that
condominium!" Etc. With bowling, once you let go of the ball, it's no
longer your legal responsibility. They have these wonderful machines that
find it for you and send it right back.
