• Inside Bowling: Producer Tim Scott's new show!
• Bowlers: Little Ollie/ 175 / Valvoline Instant Oil change & Tummysizer
Phil. . .Doug. . .Whoever / 162 / Valvoline Instant Oil change & goose door stop

Two words: My God! Little Ollie had a cool release! He starts normally, then he releases the ball from between his legs. Although that seemed odd, he snagged his share of strikes. Phil. . .er. . .Doug. . .ah. . .whatever his name is is a crossdresser and a bad one at that. As Wally said: "This show is like Hee Haw at the Gay 90's". Someone in the audience is a Janet Reno fan, and both Chopper and Wally agrees that Phil. . .Doug. . .Carl. . .or whatever does look like Janet Reno. Then Chopper injects somewhat worthless information about a bowler who bowled at 300 blindfolded. Bernie suddenly goes berserk, picks up her couch, and lands it on Wally. A suffle ensues and we fade to a commercial break. Later, Bernie apologizes and all is slightly forgiven. . Amongst other things that are icons of the show, there are two others: Corn Dogs and the Pig. Now they come together when the Pig stands between Wally and Chopper and eats a Corn Dog. Just an observation, don't shoot me! The crossdresser reminds Wally of his prom date. He was 30 and she was 18. He says she was desperate. . .With a capital 'D'. Chopper returns to spouting more useless info like the guy in 1984 who was withdrawn from a competition because his ball fell off his bed and caused bodily hard. Why he was sleeping with the ball no one knows. In the end, Audrey escorts Phil in and quickly wipes off her hand.


The Dust Bunnies. They remind me of the Manhattan Transfer. Acapella with instrument backups. They really work well together!

 

Join hosts Tony Martini & Olive Heather as they bring you dancing and music from residential basements all across the Twin Cities. They were in Chaska, now they are Robbinsdale. Their DJ is a funky chain smoker who is protective of his equipment. And as a bonus, the hosting family gets a prize. This time it's furnace filters (ooh!)! Next week: The Sedahl's of Hopkins!Listen to this installment of "Inside Bowling" in RealAudio!

Take a close look at the third picture above.  Yup it's Rich Kronfeld, AKA your old buddy Wally.
