Back in the day we used to hit a duckpin bowling alley. Same ball as candlepin, but shorter versions of tenpin style pins.

Also, while we're on Boston specialities, Dr. McGillicudy's? I have a couple friends that just went to Boston and they're telling me about all the wierd crap there they'd never seen and convincing me I should go sometime.

If you ever come visit, I'm not allowing you to drink Dr. McGillicruddy's.

I grew up and lived in NH/MA for a long time, but my parents are from the midwest, where candlepin bowling doesn't exist. My dad jokingly calls it "overhand" bowling. Side note: playing it that way WILL get you thrown out of the bowling alley.

10-pin, candlepin, whatever, both are pretty fun.

Fair enough. However, if you ever come to Chicago, you gotta drink some Malort. It's a Chicago right of passage.

AKA "Northern Discomfort". Been there, done that - on tour with Buzzov-en in 1998. **** straight-up tastes like rotting dead animals. Never again.

Forgot you travelled extensively. I love Malort man. I'll admit it's an acquired taste, but I dig it. Malort and Coke with a squeeze of lime? I prefer it over Captain and Coke any day.

Sweet. If I weren't an Apple fanboy, I'd go for a Samsung or one of the Nexus phones.

In all honesty, I didn't have one and never gave it much thought. I just roll with it.

evilcryalotmore 11-01-11 10:12 PM

Awesome, how old are anyways? :|

I was born on August 17th, 1973.

I've never been into video games enough to have a favorite.

Same. Even my friends who don't know much about fixed think it's hilarious.
