The first winter of my parttime job serving up cream of wheat in the hospital kitchen, the dishwasher boys were wearing platform shoes, "baggies" high-waisted, wide-leg pants with extreme cuffs, and reindeer ski sweaters. These were the guys we wanted to cruise alongside through McDonalds, accompany to a movie, or, GASP, go bowling. Why were perfectly normal Nebraska corn-fed beef boys wearing Elton John shoes???

I think bowling is fun, though I'm not a particularly good bowler. I'm amused that my Nebraska girlfriend's son (about 22 years old) wins bowling tournaments and travels to bowling competitions in other states.
