Bowl-A-Rama in Portsmouth New Hampshire has a dot matrix printer and gives you a copy when you turn in your shoes. It looks as old as the scrolls found in jars in the deserts of Israel. But it works just fine. If we didn’t make fun of old things, maybe there wouldn’t be so much pressure to get new things. It’s the little jokes your neighbor makes about your old Ford Granada wagon that makes you want to get a new Volvo with heated seats. That’s why, upon contemplation, seeing this score card paper with the perforated edges makes me happy. Bowl-A-Rama may have Dance Dance revolution in the arcade room, but they don’t follow every trend.
