This evening we got together with the Hartmann family and went bowling. It's an activity I've always enjoyed and wish I could do more often. We had a great time - a chance to spend time laughing and catching up (and watching Catherine and Dani jump up and down and squeal!). Bowling has always been one of those activities that could be a wholesome family outing, a date, a boys/girls night out, a league consisting of people from all walks of life, or a variety of other groups of people. It's NOT a place where I expected to see a disclaimer to which you have to agree in order to play. I have to wonder where common sense has gone and why people are no longer expected to use it. It certainly makes sense that you should keep your hands out of the ball return, shouldn't cross the foul line, and should wipe up or report spills. Perhaps we should add a few that aren't listed (you know, for those TRULY stupid people who might not realize these truths):
**Dropping a bowling ball on your foot could potentially cause physical damage
**Standing too close to the bowler taking his/her turn is dangerous
**Oh, and by the way, that coffee you brought in from McDonald's is HOT!
