The PigPen's Resplendent Kaffeeklatsch

[rayheinrich]

I like the idea of a bowling alley. But since we're poets and all, we shouldn't have the traditional ten pin
with the large ball and three holes you put your fingers in. I think we should go with either duckpin, candlepin,
5 pin, or 9 pin. When I lived in Virginia, there was a duckpin lane within walking distance. Compared to traditional
bowling, the pins are short, fat, and a lot harder to knock over with the small ball that fits in the palm of your hand.
But since this is PigPen's Resplendent Kaffeeklatsch, maybe we should go with Martin Luther's favorite game:
German Kegeln. It's a nine-pin bowling game that is almost identical to the Texas 9-pin I played as a kid because
German immigrants/relatives brought 9-pin Kegeln over to Texas.
... I'm torn between cute fat little duckpins and German tradition. Someone else will have to decide.
