Elizabeth and I just got back a little while ago from Marshalltown where we went bowling for my work Christmas party. It wasn't your regular night of bowling. During our first game we bowled normally, but in our second and third games we had to bowl with a specific style for each frame. Opposite handed, pushing the ball with a pool stick, with something over our head to we are blindfolded, granny-style, etc. I actually only had strikes a few times that I bowled silly... my only attempt blindfolded I threw a strike. Also I had strikes when using the pool cue and when throwing "as hard as I can". No strikes when I tried to bowl normally.
The other highlight of today was taking Elizabeth to watch the ISU men's basketball team
defeat BYU, 83-62. Will Clyburn was the star of the game for Iowa State, scoring a career-high 32 points.

| Today's game was "Color it Cardinal", and the Cyclones wore red instead of their usual home white. Later on this play there was an amazing alley-op pass that Clyburn dunked over a BYU defender. |

| Halftime score 48-37 Iowa State leading. |
 |
Cyclones win again!

One other thing that I will remember about today's basketball game was the large number of BYU fans that made the trip over here to watch the game. It seemed like there was one whole section that was filled up with the visiting team's fans. I'm guessing that they had a couple charter busses or something. At least they all got to be disappointed in the end :)
