89-year-old bowling

We grow old because we stop playing

If you forgive the spare bit of a philosophy, I think it was George Bernard Shaw who said, " We don't stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing. "
"That was bad."

Yeah, real nice Shaw. Try to pick up of a twelve-pound ball with an 80-year-old back. Then see how philosophical you feel.

" Once you get older, you still bowl. You start as good. "Take it from these ladies.

"chronologically challenged we are. ” The Ally kats.

"We don't know then. I forgot. "

The Frisky Kats, the Wild Kats, and the Kit kats, "Oh, no!" This clearly is a group in need of some maturity. That's where Elsie Giles comes in. I got this stiff neck from looking and see if Elsie's coming. She is the senior member.

" I will see her, how (old) are you. "

Getting more senior today, I don t think Elsie is coming. She probably wasn't dressed. If only she gets here. As soon as you see her coming , everybody start singing happy birthday. Happy birthday to you. Many many more Elsies. Elsie is 89-years young today. She is good for her age. She is our heart. She is hot. Everybody wants a good average, you know. I like to win. She jumped rope into her 70s when dancing with her husband until they got quote and quote "elderly". "And those have always loved to be active." Now, at 89, she is the role model for these girls who obviously require some of adults' supervision. I told that sinker to go down. In a bowling league where reading glasses outnumber resin bags. .

May we see outside the bowling.

"You only have to picks up two more."

" I will note. "

And bodies begin to bark. A lot of ladies have arthritis really bad. Elsie doesn't want to get feel philosophical. She just wants to keep playing. We just are people who don't give up.

文本参考中文翻译

听到George Bernard Shaw的这句话，你会感觉到非常有哲理，“不因变老而停止玩耍，我们变老是因为停止玩耍。”

“听上去很糟糕。”

是的，Shaw身体很棒。以80岁老人的身体仍然能够拿得起12磅重的保龄球，这样你就能感觉到他说的那句话是有哲理的。

“当你变老的时候仍然在坚持打保龄球，这就是一个好的开始。”从这些女士身上也可以看出。

“我们都受到年龄的挑战。”Ally kats说。

“我们不知道。我忘记了。”

Frisky Kats, Wild Kats和Kit kats的声音，“哦，不！”很明显，这群人看上去好像是不成熟的小孩子。Elsie Giles就是加入了这样一个团体。我盼望Elsie的到来看的脖子都僵了。她是这里的高级会员。

“我会见到她的。你多大年龄了呢？”

Elsie今天又年长了一岁，我认为她可能不会来了。她可能连自己穿衣的能力都没有了。真希望她能够到来。她姗姗来迟的时候，大家都开始唱生日快乐歌。越来越多像Elsie这样的人。今天Elsie过89岁生日，在如此高龄，她的身体是很好的。她是我们的核心。大家都想有一个比较好的平均水平，你知道。我想赢。她一直到70岁的时候还在跳绳，直到他们很老的时候，她还和丈夫一起跳舞。“他们喜欢积极地生活。”现在她已经89岁高龄，成为这些需要成年人监护的小女孩的榜样。

希望我们能在保龄球场外见面。

“你只要再打两次就好了。”

“我会注意的。”

许多人的身体并不好，许多女士都很严重的关节炎。Elsie说那句话并不是为了让人感到她很有哲理性，只是想活到老玩到老。我们都不应该放弃。
