#984 – Catgut

I have never played real tennis. We did have tennis rackets at our house and a few times a summer a few of us would go to the courts at the local park and hit tennis balls at each other. We could never do a proper serve. We would bounce the ball on the ground and then swing wildly at it like we were playing baseball. Every once in awhile we would manage to hit the ball back and forth over the net more than just a few times. That amazing few seconds is what would get us to try it out again the next year.

    He probably lost the tan in a freakish accident involving a giant octopus and an umbrella stand… or some other Biff-like thing 😉

    HE looks determined to play the game though.

    @Kitsune Dzelda: I agree. He does look determined to play the game.

    As for me, I’m not really that good at tennis. Usually I find myself beating my competition fairly easily. I usually want there to be a fair game and that usually means losing.

    @ Lich King: Good show. Sherlock Holmes was no magician, he always explained the way his powers of deduction worked. Any insights to share?

    @i.half4 – It’s not powers of deduction when I’m the source of the info:
