I've been going (more than) a little stir-crazy while recuperating from a relatively minor surgery for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Turns out I accidentally sprained the same wrist just before I had the stitches removed. So I can't yet do the therapy exercises that would hasten my recovery. This is only the 3rd week that I can't bowl and I thought I'd be able to start throwing a game or two of practice sometime this week. Ain't gonna happen, though. So my temper's a little bit short and all bad things seem exaggerated all out of proportion.

In any case, I kind of "bit his head off" about issuing too many new balls when I haven't been buying too many of D/T's. Sorry, Phil. I think there's just so many good balls out there, I kind of hate not being able to test them all.

I already got a new High Energy over Christmas/New Years and just drilled it. Can't throw it yet. Since the ZR40 has been documented by so many new users here to be a real control ball, today I just ordered one of them also. So this means I won't be polishing the HE, as I had planned. Should be an interesting comparison test, when I finally get to them.

Yeah, don't try to rush recovery.  Don't worry, you'll be back on the lanes shootin' the lights out in no time.
