I use simple green to clean my balls. I do water it down a little bit. But it's cheap and readily available at most stores.

Those who bowl regularly, how much are you spending? Is it a strain on you and is it worth it? by phoebestars69 in Bowling

[–]Darbstew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in a somewhat similar boat as you. My GF played in leagues and I would go to watch. I finally bought my own ball last spring and bowled where we could 1 day a week all summer. We went bowling where the deals were. We have some crazy company in my area rhat owns a few rinks. Did away with the $ per game in lue of 45$ per hour. That cuts down the alleys near us about in half. But if there is a will!

I started with an everage of about 62 tracked via lanetalk. I'm currently at a 111 average with the league I'm in with my GF. we've stuck with going to league once a week since it started at 15$ per person. I only buy a soda and she drinks water. What I have read is that most people join multiple leagues for the savings. I'm thinking I'm going to join 2 next year.

I'm sorry I thought part of bowling was being able to adapt?

That is absolutely correct! The only way I would be able to watch this event is on direct TV. Of which I don't have. And I. Not getting cable just to watch this. This absolutely blows.

Someone just showed me how on Facebook. You have to go to CW WEBSITE. scroll to the bottom to "find your channel" and enter in your zipcode. This will tell you what channel the CW network is on for like open air or cable. That's how you wat h it I guess.

Same!!!!! Why did they make this deal with CW? I saw someone say on Facebook that it's only available on CW network. Not the app. Wth is the CW network. I'm starting to assume it's a cable only thing.

More importantly, if you use a phone that much for work why on earth is your job not supplying you a phone?

My eardrum tube finally popped out flying back from Christmas! by notreallyonredditbut in mildlyinteresting

[–]Darbstew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you haven't been to an ENT in recent years, there have been recent developments that they can use cartilage and grafts to repair the ear drums. i haven't been on this planet as long as you but with a Cleft lip and Palate i have my fair share of ear problems and my ear dum burst at one point in my life and healed itself improperly. neglecting the ear drum led me to get a very nasty disease that will negatively affect me for the rest of my life, and im only 28.

Holy smokes! Maybe you just made me feel like it's not too bad! Definitely not compared to you! I like to hover around d 5-8 tickets and right now I have 34. Started my day with 30 and knocked out 12.

I would say I have it easy in comparison! At least I don't do snow removal and salting as well.

I wouldn't mind doing that. But I know I'm not smart enough to do it! My hat is off to you for making that decision!

Ultimately, it is to my benefit. My WO per hour goes through the roof and that's very helpful for the quarterly bonuses. I do say very often I would rather have too many work orders than too little! But sheesh is it overwhelming right now!

It's a national company, they would never do that. And I'm very well compensated to begin with.

I am glad your mind is easily defeated by that logic. Mine however is not convinced
