Perhaps you're right Jason. 'She' doesn't change direction, but you can change the direction of the spin that 'you' see back and forth at the point where her extended leg goes behind or in front of her body. Is that because you're swapping which side of the mind is being used? Who knows! Good...

Wow, I love it! If you concentrate, you can turn her in either direction at will, which i'm guessing is good exercise for both sides of your brain. Very cool!

Yeah what a fantastic effort by team NSW! A huge congratulations to everyone involved. Particularly the NSW ladies, doesn't get much closer than that! Special mention must go to Christian Purdue. Even though he 'only' had the 11th highest average, he topped the mens points with 16 out of 18...

Really good show! Managed to catch it from the first frame onwards. As Lance said, the editing was really good and I was impressed with the number of camera angles that you had too. The commentary got better and better as the game went on. And even the non bowling person that I watched the show...

That's right tonx! Laidley should be applauded (and rewarded) for the Roos resurgence. But I also hear that they want to assess him on 'not just this season, but his performance over the last 5 years.' Essentially, a lot of the board members are looking for any excuse to get rid of him, whatever...

What in hell is going on in the AFL right now?? Kevin Sheedy after 27 years as Essendon coach will not be coaching the Bombers next season, the fourth coach to go this season. Now I may be a bit biased as an Essendon supporter, but what's the story? Essendon are still in contention for finals...

Following on from a previous thread, I was wondering what physical aspects are important to maintain off the lanes? Lately I've found myself not feeling 'fit' on the lanes. What sort of activities do others do to stay 'bowling fit'?

Presently on TV - Boston Legal, Scrubs, Family Guy, Myth Busters and, thanks to my mum and girlfriend, Bold and the Beautiful! You know you like it, you're just afraid to embrace the quality storylines and acting. Favourites if they were still on TV - Knight Rider, JAG, the original Stargate...

Very sad news indeed. Always a great character to have a chat with and a true gentleman of the sport. I loved the fact that he would even show the pins courtesy once in a while with a little bow, just to say 'thanks very much for that strike'. Thanks for the memories Ray, rest in peace.

I'm just amazed that it actually took two people to come up with that crap... :Lighten:

You know what else grinds my gears? An airconditioner that stops cooling once the temperature hits 30. And the fact that the pile of dishes in the kitchen aren't washing themselves.

You know what grinds my gears? When i'm working at the supermarket, and someone decides to spend an hour wandering up an aisle looking at every single product on display, constantly getting in my way and seemingly oblivious to the line of angry shoppers banked up behind them. Open your eyes...

Well he said himself, Ford never called him back for a drive so he had to do something. Even though i am a one eyed Ford supporter, i'll still be cheering Seto on. And who said this guy's washed up! Podium in 3 of the last 4 Bathursts, that's some damn good consistency. He deserves a win after...

I would think it's acceptable in between shots to relax to some tunes, even while you're bowling to help you relax on a lower volume. But i'm not so sure I agree with music while you bowl purely to block out your surroundings. In 'theory land', you could say someone is gaining a competitive...

I can't BELIEVE how easily some people get distracted. I had someone on a lane 3 or 4 lanes away who visibly cracked it at me during a tournament for cutting her off. What you're doing looking 3 lanes to your left during your setup is beyond me. So my rule is to give way as many lanes as it...

What are people's thoughts on the state of our Test Cricket team? You might have the view of 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it.' But i personally would say it is time for certain players to be retired and for more youth to be injected into the side, as painful a process as that might be. The age...

It's funny about Symonds. I was reading that he was told to approach his innings like a backyard cricket match. He did that pretty well! Give him a couple more goes i'd reckon, he might just make it.

Yeah i tried that a few years ago. Security almost lost it when it went through the x ray. I wondered what all the fuss was about until i saw the monitor. That baby seriously looked like a bomb of some sort, at the very least one of those classic ACME cartoon bombs!

OK, so we've just finished talking about the National University Games, and suddenly i've received an email about the Australian University Games. Just wondering who is competing, if this is in fact an entirely different event? What caught my eye was that Deakin University are recruiting for...

Hard to know whether to be angry or congratulate the man. I would love to know about the 'thorough investigation' process that took place. Apparently there were 'fewer than 4 witnesses' present for each of the 900's. That's truly iron clad evidence. But hey, if any one of the 900's he has...

"i can't believe mum made me wear this!"

I found out that Deakin is sending a team as well. I had no idea bowling was one of the sports! Definitely something to look forward to for next year.

Bloody fine effort Boz. i can't believe it's the first in 13 years on those lanes. Thought you'd already have a few 300's in that time! Congratulations mate, you're a champion. Ryan Crawford
