I have actually played this, and it is one of the most enjoyable things you could ever possibly do in your life. Full-contact ping-pong follows much the same rules, just with smaller balls and weapons... er, paddles. > > > > > > On a more, eh, conventional, note, I would've chosen gymnastics or swimming were they options. > > > > > > -Fob"some people play *organized* sports?"ulis > > > >  > > I am personally disappointed that Ten-Pin bowling isn't in the list as well.  (I have to call it Ten-Pin to distinguish it from the othe rtypes of bowling we do in the UK, like in cricket.)  It is my all time favourite sport since discovering it at University.  I currently have an average of 170 and a personal best of 254.  I will get a 300 game one day,  I will!!! > > > > Beasty > > The first time I went bowling, I scored 300.

  And did you hear the one about the guy who bowled a 72 and then went to the golf course and shot a perfect 300? . . . That was it. . . . .   It's called a one-liner.   You don't have to answer the question for it to be funny!  No no NO! That *is* the punch line.  The whole joke is a punch line.  That's why they call them one-liners. You have?  Well, I've heard it before too, but I still think it's funny. Oh.  You don't?  Well, you see 72 is a good golf score and 300 is a perfect game in bowling.  This poor clutz had them backwards and .......... Howard
