Today I am doing a blog on the readings that I read this week.  The reading was an essay that Nicole Williams wrote when she was a student.  It is called interview bowling.  In this essay, Nicole talks about the bowling ally and what she sees on a thursday night.  When she first arives, the place is PACKED, she even had to park her car across the street just to find a spot.  When she enters the bowling ally, she notices that the guys are on the left and the women on the right.  It is thursday night bowling leage night, and she decides to go over and shit with the women at a teams spot whose name is red ruby. She talks to the ladies and find out some information for example how long they have been bowling for and the fact that most of them arnt competitive.  Doing this reseach she was able to expand her knowledge about who bowls and what it is like.  She also learned through these interviews and research that Hank, the owner, has owned more then one bowling ally and has been working with bowling allys for over 30 years! this information explains to her why this particular bowling ally hasnt changed much since the old days, because Hank was old fashioned and stuck in his ways.
