DUST MY PUMICE

For some reason people bowl but what’s the reason? Money? Yes, sometimes that’s why they bowl and as everybody knows money is the root of all evil (rhymes with weevil). Even $250 worth of money. And that’s exactly how much they give away (they’re cheap) on whatever the name of that bowling show is that they stick on channel 9 once in a while *usually unannounced in TV Guide).

For some reason people bowl but what’s the reason? Money? Yes, sometimes that’s why they bowl and as everybody knows money is the root of all evil (rhymes with weevil). Even $250 worth of money. And that’s exactly how much they give away (they’re cheap) on whatever the name of that bowling show is that they stick on channel 9 once in a while *usually unannounced in TV Guide). No, not Celebrity Bowling, that’s on all the time, this one’s only on like Sunday nites or something like that. And the announcer is Bill Mazer. *

Bill Mazer! Oh how the mighty have fallen! Used to be he did the announcing and interviews and everything for CBS Sunday afternoon hockey and he must’ve got paid a bundle. But since announcer money is just as much the root of all evil as athlete money it serves him right. Bowling is where he belongs and he covers the sport like no one since King Farouk.
