Sunday, August 30, morning throw down between TWMAC and TWSW (ok southwest is only 1 Albuqerque chick)

The format is yet to be decided, but the combatants are Topaz vs. Shell in:

1) power breakfast (if the weather is bad)
2) casual hitting and chatting
3) a set or two of tennis

Shell, representing the TWSW chapter (yet to be established), is the strong favorite in the first two options - nobody throws down on breakfast like me, and I can do some tough hitting and chatting.

The potential set play is a toss up. May the best win.

The challenge has been set, the combatants are preparing...woo hooo!

Shell,

Welcome to the area! You should join the TWMAC ladder and make it a ladder match!

Send me your email to sup2dresq@aim.com to get you set up.

May the best outfit (especially including shoes .. win)... unless any of it is adidas!

So is this in Albuquerque or Arlington? High noon? And I assume the winner will be the "Good" and the loser the "Bad," since neither of you could possibly be the "Ugly?"

Ha. I might wear my Adidas Wimbledon colors to your Sunday clinic, just to see how you react.

Shell....*whiny voice*...top secret! Top secret!!!!

Ok, well, since the cat has come leaping out of the bag...maybe you guys can help us out a bit? We are looking for outdoor public courts in the Lutherville/Timonium area (Shintan, where are you?)...I've found Dulaney HS...any other ideas?

Too much adidas will make me do "around the world" drills until the basket run out. Ask the guys if that outfit is worth it. Especially with three people!

Just say no .. and what are you doing with an adidas outfit!

Ups, didn't realize it was top secret....well, it's not now! Sorry!!!

And Sup, I probably will be wearing Adidas, so that may be my downfall. If I lose to Topaz, that will be my excuse anyway.

Topaz, I will check on indoor courts at the club since it sounds like weather could always be an issue. Another reason you guys should consider a move to New Mexico - we just have to worry about sun, more sun or most sun - and the occasional wind issue.

Yeah, my hotel is in Timonium, but I couldn't remember the name. Kept wanting to call it Titanium, which I just really didn't think was right

Well spoken sir. It is in Baltimore. I've made the trip for other reasons, and Topaz was kind enough to meet up with me. Although now I know it was supposed to stay secret. So mums the word.

Yes, my avatar is me practicing at the '07 US Open on the practice courts Good grief girl, that is Justine. It is supposed to be my inspiration to lose a little weight - had never seen her without her full match outfit. The girl was rock solid, with a 6 pack ab. Maybe some day....

LOL. SHHHHH!!!

I want to ask you what racquets you're bringing, but depending on the answer, you'll have no less than 3 TWMAC members trying to lighten your load for your return trip!

Well I know goucher college is right at the 83/695 junction not far from timonium. Towson university is as well. Both of those places woudl be fine and easy to get to if shell has a car.

Theres also two schools pretty close to eqcxh other. I dont know the names. ones on east ridgley road and the other is on east ridge road. both look like they got courts.

The question lives around that area sop maybe he has a better idea.

Imagine that googlemaps timonium and it zooms right in on the schools.

I thought it was her at first, but then wasn't sure...I know you're a heck of a player!

And I have Kim in mine!

Oh, the irony!

I have a feeling I'm going to choke!!!!

EDIT: solid info, HW, thanks!

Well, as you know, I could provide TWMAC with demos for the next 6 months - but I am trying to be good. Still giving the nCode Tour Twos their trial. I will be rolling into town with the Wilsons. Unless I feel nervous, then it may be any of multiple choices. But I think the Ncode Tours. I think....

I'll have one with some Maxim Touch for you to try - probably gut mains and MT crosses. I like that.

Oh, that sounds sweet!

And of course, you can try out the kTours, see how different they may feel from the nTours.

I was hoping you would say the Wilsons!

Channeling my inner Joker, AKA Jack Nicholson. Just can't resist green and purple - and neither can my wife. She actually smiles when I wear that combo.

But so far I have resisted wearing it in your presence out of respect for the TWMAC Godfather.

That's right off I-695, exit 27A. It's like 2 mins from me. There are lots of courts to choose from, but try Seminary park. The courts are decent, not always a lot of folks there, and they have lights if needed...

Oh, thanks The Question. The meet up club is off exit 23, so that sounds close. Topaz and I appreciate your input. I'm a duck out of water, I don't even know that I wll find my hotel after the airport
