What would be the lowest score with 9 strikes and no gutter balls?

My first pass results in 135:

X X 11 X X 11 X X 11 XXX

Which is pretty lousy for that many strikes, but better than any game I’ve ever bowled. I don't see how you could get a lower score under the specified parameters, since any rearrangement would result in more turkeys than just the one in the last frame.

How can the citizens of Russia accept the enormous difference between people? The richest 500 Russians own more than the poorest 99.8% of the entire Russian population combined. Why don't we see any protests?
