Poem
So! You think you're ready to ’Bowl’ with the ‘Big Dogs?’ You think you got what it takes to hang? This is no place to be if you are ’Weak of Lung’ or suffering from a chronic case of ’Crap-4-Brains’ We’re Real Live, Big Time, Home Grown, Hard Core ‘Bowlers’ around here Pal. So have no doubt. Welcome to ‘Bowling - 101’ Once we’re finished with you, you'll know what “BOWL CALL” is really all about. Having your act together tends to pay. As a Bellowing ‘Bowl Call’ can occur at any time of the night or day When this happens, Do Not Panic! Do Not Dilly - Dally - Dawdle or Delay Just calmly drop what (or who) you're doing, and report for ‘Bowling Duty’ straight away. Arriving late for an ‘Official Bowl Call’ is considered a blatant ‘Party Foul’ Penalties run very high indeed. A first offense carries a mandatory surrender of your bowl and the immediate confiscation of your weed. Rookie maneuvers, followed by feeble excuses will not be tolerated, So make no mistake! We smoke our brains out around here, but only until we’re lightly toasted. It’s the Brownies that keep getting baked. So this is it Pal, step up, smoke down. It’s not as harsh as it seems. This is your chance to live every Bowler - Wanna - Be’s Wet-Bowling-Dream.’ So the next time you're just kicking it with your favorite ‘Kind Bud’ and a familiar ‘Bowl Call’ echoes thru your chronic haze... You’ll think of the years of dedication and practice and how you’re still so amazed. ‘Junior Bowlers’ from all around will hear of your early ‘Bowl Calling Daze’ and how high that it pays… to be a ‘Bowling Icon’ as you keep Rolling Bluntly, through your ‘Remaining Bowling Daze’ Loreen Parke November 11 2003 Written for and dedicated to my friend 'Tiny' who originated the very first Bowl Call
