Love you , Mom ! Glad you ' re here <| sep |> Post too ironicmetaphorical for this early a hour . But we appreciate your meta humor on this day of thanks . <| sep |> I have the lucky advantage of not having my shop in a bowling centre , so I don ' t get walkins . Most of my customers are from referrals from customers I already have , so while it does limit the income the shop gets , I have a more experienced clientele . So no real stories like yours I ' m afraid , Although the guys with the plastic balls gave me a chuckle . I knew this guy who had 2 plastics in his bag nothing else one was his strike ball the other he used for spares . Cracked me up every time I saw him grab his spare ball out . <| sep |> Yeah there was . Manny was the most popular fighter when Floyd retired . But when Floyd came back he was the bigger name .
