NH?
I love those huge airplane hangars....and I need to see about getting a ride in a blimp. Maybe next time I'll buy Goodyear tires or something.
About manual pin setting at a bowling alley, when I was a kid our parish church parochial school built a new extension on the school and in the basement they built in four bowling alleys but with manual pin setups. So as kids we'd go down there when the old guys were bowling and they'd pay us huge bucks for setting their pins, which back then was $0.10 a game and maybe a tip if the guy bowling won some money. I used to get tipped extra well by a couple of bowler gamblers when I "helped" their game: I would be sitting up behind the pin rack with a bowling pin in hand, and just as his ball hit the first pin, I would throw the extra pin down at the back few pins as hard as I could and knock down a bunch more just in case...never got caught but I did confess this "sin" to Father ?...forgot his name, but he couldn't understand one word of English (only Polish) so we'd have no hesitation telling him all sorts of evil sins we committed since all he would say is "good boy, five our father five hail mary" and we'd be saved!
