Bowling balls, much like minds, leaves, and delicious turkey sandwiches, are best kept out of the gutter. Stick to the straight-and-narrow path with today's Groupon: for $55, you get a family bowling package at Surf Bowl in Oceanside (a $134 value). The package includes:
- Two hours of bowling, plus shoe rental for four people
- One extra-large pizza
- Four medium soft drinks
Originally built in the 1940s, Surf Bowl provides entertainment for all ages in a slick, retro-inspired environment. With toes safely sheathed in provided shoes, clans of up to four gather to watch their obsidian orbs fly toward impetuous walls of pins like jealous boulders rolling at that pretentious Stonehenge. Bumper-bowling makes the sport accessible for ball-chuckers under the age of 10 or belly-sliding penguins with a poor sense of direction.
As pins fall and bodies spin in strike-induced dances, families can refresh their bowling-energized bodies with an extra-large pizza and up to four medium soft drinks, which fuel muscles and re-lube tonsils for victory cries. Players craving a break from ball-rolling mayhem may simply sit and admire Surf Bowl’s funky atmospherics, replete with bright blue gutters, wood laminate tables, and a darkly hued billiards area.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Nonverbal Communication
There are numerous occasions in which verbal communication is not an option, from visiting a foreign nation to calling out the other guy in the Victorian-era diving helmet for biting your style. What are some effective methods of nonverbal communication you can try at home?
Sign language: Many dedicated adults take on the task of learning American Sign Language in order to effectively communicate with hearing-impaired loved ones. If you are not a dedicated person, more guttural gesticulation will do, such as using a thumbs up to indicate hamburger approval or making your hand look like a rabbit to indicate we are in danger, we have to run—quickly.
Pheromones: The human body uses secret smells to communicate all the time—often without your permission. Harnessing the limitless power of pheromones will let you transmit nasal messages silently, such as making yourself smell like lavender to attract a wealthy soap-store employee, or making yourself smell like microwaved garbage so that your roommate will buy 50% of an air conditioner.
Universal Blinking Code: Often shortened to UBC, Universal Blinking Code does not exist, and certainly isn't being used by everyone you know to privately discuss you, all of the time.
