Tuesday..

More rain.. will it ever break??


Soooo, back in 04 or something, you know, I start coming out to play. I had decided that I'd pick up the game again after 10 years of absence. I can't hit the ball worth crap, my legs are cramping up, I have utterly no depth perception, I can't hit. My first person I meet is Taj.. you know, he's running me all over the place and i'm gasping all over. I'm wondering then if it was the right decision to play, I have my doubts and I"m seriously reconsidering.

I try it again the next day.. yep, still can't hit the ball, though once in a while I get one over but not enough to convince me to stay. 6-pack comes up to me and challenges me to a set of singles.. mind you, I still can't hit, run or anythi8ng.. I say ok, what the hell I've seen him play. end of story he beets me for a buck or something maybe 5. Little did I know what I was getting into.. If you hear his story its at least 5 times for hundreds of dollars that he's won from me. A true Minnesota fish story if there ever was one.


RAIN..

Who would have guessed?

Who's six pack? Also, I got both your racquets strung up. If I'm not doing anything tomorrow around lunch time I'll swing by and drop them off.

The weather is supposed to be much better in a couple of days.
On Saturday, I'll be at Magnolia with Gordon and Pat for Roy Priors mixer event. That starts around 1pm I think.
I'll be at Lincoln Park around 4pm each day if it's dry.

If you see Ron tell him I have some Henry's private reserve I can bring to Lincoln Park if he can be there. Dave

Good news bad news
We played.. all Lou and I..

God bless Lou for putting up with my unabashed lackluster performance.. watching those carpet layers really got me tired. Anyway, good news is we hit, bad news is the level of play.. bad.

Well hopefully there will be a window tomorrow that we can play and I'll have abit more energy. Well I'd like to play some doubles tomorrow, anyone? around 3:00 pm.


Signing off..
