Just wanted to say hello to all out in Lindenwood. Nothing much is goin on out here in the great state of PA. Fall is finally on us and you all know what that means. Bowling season is upon us as well. Hope all is going well and everyone is doing things that I should be doing. Remember to drink as much as you can and then bust down locked doors, drink as much as you can and then stay in the St. Charles Lanes bathroom 3 hours past last call, and last but not least hump as many ball returns when you are bowling Kansas. As for the noobies out there just ask around and they will tell you stories the whole night about my acts I preformed on and off the lanes.
I guess the thing that I wanted to write the most is just everyone have fun. Don't take bowling or life too seriously. I'm sure Randy as already said many that many times but listen. I know I have been accused and have seen the toll it takes when you take everything seriously and don't have your priorities in order. I got kicked out of Lindenwood because Bowling was my #1 and School was distant second. Lindenwood might be a school that has some of the most ignorant rules, but remember when you put that shirt on your back you represent where you come from. Randy has an eye for talent he knows you can bowl, but Lindenwood put there money for you to earn your degree.
As for all my friends out there...and the enemies I've created along the way. I'm working for a credit union going to school in the evenings to get my English degree. I moved out of my parent’s house and into my own apartment, plus bought a new Chevy Colorado. Bowling's going pretty well, but I don't eat/sleep/breath it like I used to. I learned there are a lot of things outside of the bowling alley I've been missing. My heart and desire still burn, but I know I will always be at an uphill battle within the sport. Overall, things are looking up for a change. I'll be around if anyone wants to talk and you never know when or where you might see me. I might take one of my vacation days and come out to drink one more time.
My email address is jwillie300@netscape.com or my aim is dj10pln (the i in pin is a lowercase L). Drop me a line; I love to talk bowling and life in general. Hope to see you all soon and miss you all even more...
LU C-Team for Life, Joshua W. Smith
PS Chase...I'm not a Noob

josh is talked about like a myth since he has left.
he has single handedly succeeded on getting that "10 minutes of fame" that we all chase.
of course im talking about that one day in the cafe where josh became... a god.
and no matter where josh will be in life, everytime any one of us hear that fateful ANDREW W.K. song, we will never forget Josh doing half-assed jumpkicks, wearing a cape and a witch hat, and carrying a sword. and not to mention, gaining the full attention of the LU Dance Girls as they willingly joined him on his crusade of madness, insanity, humility (in a good way), and most importantly... history.
josh will forever live on within the halls of LU, and even though his time spent here was cut short, the battle wounds and trophy scars he left behind can never be forgotten.
this ones for you josh PARTY HARD!
