I'm not sure if it's my "day job" yet, but I make more money working on pins these days than my "day job".

I used to own a bowling alley, but it was too small for pins. When the economy tanked, so too did the bowling alley - we lost just about everything. Today, I'm always looking for work - and I've done okay fixing pins over the last few years. This year, my wife opened an arcade and I maintain the pins there. Basically, we're going for broke, because we're not making enough money at our other jobs to maintain the house, etc.

The arcade has done okay so far, I'm hoping things pick up more sooner...or things will get ugly fast!

On Route 3A in Weymouth, on the right, about a mile past the Fore River Bridge - Pop Bumpers Pinball.

I'll be working there tonight between 6 and 9! Stop by if you have the time tonight.

Me too. I'd love to see this become successful enough that we can try a bigger place, etc.

Awesome! Bring a whole crew of people! Make sure you let me know when you get here. It's a cool meeting Pinsiders in the "real world".
