oh cool still playing at severn? i have a couple sets of typhoon i still need to try! i am pretty addicted to hex right now so thats what i been using.
handle assembly? for the brake? you mean the plastic thing you twist to use the brake?
i had two kids in daycare for a while. it was more than our mortgage. FML. now i got one in kindergarten which should theoretically be cheaper but it kinda evens out because they just need more stuff now.
JRK -- i was on the waiting list for base daycare for over 2 years for my kids. because i'm a dirty contractor - i have the absolute lowest priority. we have dogs at my building that help the wounded warriors who were shot up in afghanistan. contractors are lower on the totem pole than these dogs.
CB -- i have donnay silvers if you like to try. with the donnay customized weights too. works really well. so far i'm in heavy like with these racquets.
topaz -- good playing last night. that first set you and C looked well nigh invincible. that second set we either picked it up or you guys got bored and took it easy on us.
nitefly / dats -- i should've tried the 16x19 ig speeds. i had the 18x20 ig speeds courtesy of downs. but with full poly at downs preferred tension of 275 pounds (which not coincidentally is his preferred fighting weight of his womenz) ruined my arm and wrist and shoulder and any joints in between. BUT - they also make a super awesome THWOCK sound when you crush forehands and serves. it makes it seem like you're just destroying the tennis ball. in retrospect it's probably the sound of my joints though.
lunch today is a gyro. made by people who look decidedly not greek - so it's gonna be amazing.
lunch - home made veggie soup, ham and turkey on Ciabatta bread and a salad - yum!
sure, when do you have in mind?
Can we do Rockville?
I am curious on the Donnay X-Dual Silver Lite Extended
Folks: I have a important question for everyone....
What's for Lunch?
Severn repurposed half of its courts for other indoor sports. There was a big exodus to Bowie SportFit. I am a member there now in the winter time.
Yes, I was referring to the handle on the disc brake. It sounds like it should be something simple, but it is not working correctly with the multiple ways I tried to assemble that thing! I haven't contacted Alpha yet for assembly instructions, but that is probably all I have to do. I don't really use the brake though, so just haven't been motivated to do it yet.
Nitefly I got the IG 18x20.
JRK, sounds good to me... How old was rio when u 1st left her there? I don't think I could do it until 6mo or more. Maybe never, I don't truzt nobody. But we should still hit there... I'll have my mom or dog watch her for a while.
Gotta go today to Dr to get her a bunch of shots. Not happy about it.... Just hope it doesnt melt her brain. Geezuz, I just want to eat my breakast but jwoww is yelling at me to change and dress he baby. Fark, when did men become such wimps? Sigh.
.....
Ok baby changed...off to Dr. Sigh
auzzie -- are you back in town? is only downs and dats worthy to hit with you? mini-meet in the cold - this weekend is supposed to be in the 60's. somebody reliable and organized set this up please. zap - make this happen.
all sounds yum except for veggie and salad part.
@tmonk: thanks. was looking at the extended. How does the thin beam work out? Does it whip through air pretty fast?
big match? sunday? are you playing? i might have my regular partner...maybe...if i'm there...
I'll be on court 4.

i will let you do some demoing
Oh no, that would mean I would have to find a tennis court with pickup truck access. When you say demo, it usually means a truckload amount of racquets.
Got any donnays? tmonk and u got me really interested. I shall bring my lonely three racquets for demo'ing as well.. LOL...
CB -- if you and zap are hitting on sunday in r-ville. i may be able to join you guys for a mini meet. might bring along sapient as well.
auzzie -- i'm off work monday. if you are back - wanna hit?
sun is bad for me. Munchkies have a bday party to go to.
tmonk, wanna do monday with zappy?
If you guys do Monday drop me a note ahead of time. I'm trying to see if I can get out on hit on Monday. Figure it's a holiday so I'll try to squeeze a bit of tennis in or McBail if the wife gives me the evil eye for asking.
Mr. JRStriker. Do what sappy and tmonk does, put your foot down.

I'm back for a short time, but I'm out of town for the weekend. Can prob work in a weekday hit sometime this week if anyone wants to make a mini meet out of things... but might be difficult to work around my sched. Mini meet during the daytime in Leesburg anyone???
Looks like a lot of folks free on Monday. we should be thinking bout Vets and not Nets, Service Members and not Service Winners. Tennismonkey in 2016.
I am down for Monday. Lets do this twmac! okay somebody pick a time and place.
