bowlinger qua bowlinger

So, there’s an update in the case of the two guys who wheeled their dead buddy down to the currency exchange in an office chair, hoping to cash his disability check. They’re going free!

The prosecutor acknowledged Tuesday that it cannot be proven beyond a reasonable doubt when the man actually died, making it difficult to bring a case against the men. Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Evelyn LaPorte agreed and dismissed the charges.

Also, Senate Bill 247 in Wisconsin failed to pass this year. Having sex with (human) corpses is still legal in Wisconsin, so long as you didn’t participate in the death.

The radical, bowling-oriented splinter wing of Gutter v. Bowlinger finished the season last week. Though we took home no trophies, we stood our ground until the bitter end, and beyond. Did it resemble the Battle of Thermopylae? Yes.

So, the semester has ground to a close, and the Bowlingers are about to fling themselves centrifugally across the country and the world. But first, finals. And the disturbing transpirations of May Day. Next fall, the diaspora will continue, but every successful plan for world domination begins that way.

Good Luck, and God Speed, Bowlingerians.
