About Me: I am originally from Cleveland, OH, moved to PA about 3 years ago. Anything else you want to know about me feel free to ask. I am a fairly decent bowler. I average over 200, I have 1 certified 300, and 4 honor scores to my credit.

Music: As I get older, I appreciate the old school. Hip-hop, R&B, jazz, gospel, reggae. Give me some Earth, Wind & Fire, Marvin Gaye, and Whodini, and I'll show you a bowling party.

Movies: Favorite movie (now) of all time: RAY I also like Spike Lee and Tyler Perry films as well.

TV: Don't watch a ton of TV. Usually watch Sportcenter when I can. Rerun of the World Series of Poker. My new favorite station is VH-1. Can't wait for the new Flavor of Love 3 to come out in Feb.

Books: Honestly I have only read one in my life, The Autobiography of Malcolm X. (OK, yea I read the Cat in the Hat as well, lol)

Likes: Bowling (duh!), chinese buffetts, dancing, (trying to) sing karoake. I enjoy working with new bowlers helping them improve their games and learn the game the proper way.

Dislikes: People who think they are great bowlers, but can't pick up a 10 pin!!! 1. Unlock your wrist 2.go all the way across lane (use center lane oil to you advantage) 3. turn your body towards the pin, not just your arm!

Hobbies: Well I love to bowl, shoot pool, movies, play spades, playing texas hold'em poker, tennis, work out, and shop on Ebay for bowling balls (the best place to find them).

Vices: What is this? The grips they make are great!

Virtues: patience...

Heroes: Jesus...my parents, and anyone who has had a hand in my life

OK...I bowled down in Philly, thinking I could join a league since I'm done there all the time. I signed up at Erie Lanes, first nite got their late (of course), with no practice, come out the bag, smash the first 7, leave a solid 9 pin, then sheet for 279. I'm thinking....this is WAAAYYY too easy, so I switch to a ball I've been struggling with....didn't matter, shot 247 with that and 224 with my SPARE ball. 751 series??? I'm never bowling at that cupcake house again.

I need a league to bowl on....where I don't average 225 or look like I'm sandbagging. I'm not a 225 bowler, and don't want to carry such a average into tournaments, which I like to do in the spring. But not bowling now, just practicing on dollar special days too sucks.
