a heart with a twist of lemon

i went to milwaukee last week, to watch the twins. i love my twins baseball. i also love bowling. and milwaukee happened to have that too. go figure.

the place is called landmark lanes. they're celebrating their 30th birthday, and it seems like they've never changed. you still keep score by hand, and the score table lamps are busted. they have a one armed bouncer, as well as a desk worker with a short temper and an outside voice. it was more bar than bowling alley, as they have 3 seperate bar rooms and prolly less than 20 lanes for bowling. and the only food is nachos or frozen pizzas that they heat up in a little toaster oven. if you've ever been to lee's liquor lounge in minneapolis, it has that sort of feel, only more run down and no elvis souvenir collection. i left the building very satisfied, because the place had character. and my bowling team won both games.
