You might not think it's really him (well, you're wrong. I mean, who lies about bowlers?)That being said... Chris Barnes vs. Mike DeVaney at Brunswick Zone in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. Barnes nails this strike in the 10th frame of what would be his third of three consecutive 279 games (he won all three). Barnes advanced to the finals in 5 games.

***NOT FOR BROADCAST*** STORM CHASER TONY LAUBACH www.tornadoeskick.com VIDEO DESCRIPTION A very rare nighttime severe weather event hammers the western suburbs of Denver. At about 1030pm, a tornatic storm with very heavy rains, large hail, very strong winds, and possibly a brief tornado rips through the Wheat Ridge neighborhoods along Kipling Ave between I-70 and Colfax causing extensive tree damage, significant hail damage, and lots of street flooding.

4.17 min. | 5.0 user rating		 tinyurl.com Here's the story of Phil West ( or Wolf ) and his Billboard at 4855 Miller Street in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. "Obama President or Jihad" - As stupid as that sounds, Phil has even more insightful commentary about President Obama. Here's just a small amount from the article (see link) - "Since Fort Hood, I've had it," owner Phil West told FOX 31 News Friday. "You can't suggest things. You can't profile. You gotta call a spade a spade." "Everything I have read about Mr. Obama points right to the fact that he is a Muslim. And that is the agenda of what Muslim is all about. It's about anti-American, it's about anti-Christianity," West said. Well Phil, now it's time to call a Moron a Moron. You're obviously a Moron. View the Birth Certificate here - latimesblogs.latimes.com Since Phil posted his Moronic Billboard at his business (and he's listed in the article as "the owner") and his telephone number is on the Billboard, feel free to give him a ring. His name has been listed as both Phil West and Phil Wolf.
