IMAG01721I was having a ball playing my guitar when my Father informed me one day that the Johns’ don’t play for a living, we work. Suddenly I was the assistant manager of Loomer Lanes in Transcona where he got me the job even though I didn’t a bowl. After a few months and being a bit of a smart ass, I thought what the hell and applied for the managers job at a brand new Bowling Alley which was under construction. This one was gonna be special though because it also contained a pool room and pool I know about as I spent most of my time getting my street education at one while attending TCI.
I met with the owners of the new place who told me that they were impressed with me but in order for us to proceed I needed to be a certified bowling instructor so off to the Brunswick School Of Bowling I go. I aced the test and about a month later they called to offer me the job which included a nice fat salary plus bonus incentives but unfortunately or maybe not I had just been recently hired by CKY as a part time board op. The CKY job paid minimum wage which was a dollar an hour but as I was recently engaged my Mother broke out in tears when she overheard me turn the bowling alley folks down because I had started my brand new career. She was very upset because the wedding was less then a year away and how was I going to support myself let alone a Wife with my new career which only paid a dollar an hour and was also only part time. When my Father came home later that night he surprisingly backed me telling my Mom that it was the first time he had ever seen me excited about any kind of work so he thought they should back me. He told me that I better give it everything I’ve got. I did Dad!

I think one of the reasons we talk about the past a lot is because you know what to say about it. What the hell do you say about the future.
