MY BROTHER AND I USED TO HAVE A TOY BOWLING SET
BACK IN THE LATE 60s. SINCE WE WERE ONLY TODDLERS
WE WERE BOTH AFRAID OF THE NOISE MADE WHEN THE BALLS
STRUCK THE PINS. WE QUICKLY OUTGREW OUR CHILDISH
FEARS OF BOWLING, BUT WE WERE BOTH SCARED OF THUNDER.
MY FATHER THEN SAID NOT TO WORRY BECAUSE IT WAS
REALLY GOD BOWLING AGAINST THE DEVIL AND WHENEVER
GOD ROLLED A STRIKE THERE WAS THUNDER. I ALWAYS
THOUGHT ABOUT THAT AND SLEPT BETTER.
