We went to Iowa City's fantastic Colonial Lanes for Janelle's birthday. Janelle bowled solid and won two games. I got lucky and eeked out one. Afterward, we played darts and jukeboxed while two drunk Iowa rednecks told one another bestiality jokes. When Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game" came on, one of 'em broke down and started to sob about his ex-wife. About that same time, though we didn't know it, our friend Amy was giving birth to her son about a thousand miles to the west. And back down in Athens, Hope & Jeff were getting ready to say their first hello to their boy, Samuel. Hot damn! Welcome to the world, boys.
