Watching Deacon Bowl

Our homeschool P.E. group spent the afternoon bowling today. Ten frames later I think I have Deacon's strategy down.

Step One: Grasp ball with two hands. Tell mother, "I'm strong."

Step Two: Casually walk up to the lane. Drop bowl on the floor. Lightly tap ball to get it headed in the right direction.

Step Three: Wait.

Step Four: Continue waiting. Lay on your tummy on the floor, resting your chin in your hands. (Top Deacon ball speed--.71 mph.)

Step Five: Watch ball knock over one or two pins.

Step Six: Yell, "I got a strike!"

Step Seven: High-five mother and shout, "Booyah!"

Step Eight: Return to seat and ask, "Is it my turn yet?"
