Tennis Warehouse-Mid Atlantic Chapter

[coolblue123]

Finally got to play 1.5 hours of tennis yesterday. Feeling it today. NYC is awesome. Reconfiguring lead setup to 10/4 because I need need alittle more plow. We'll see.

Thinking about making Stir Fry fresh flat noodles tonight. I think I am close to perfecting my recipe. Had the biggest constraint which is how to stir fry with a normal BTU range. I just cooked in smaller batches. Hoping I have some space on my next house to put in a high BTU range outdoors. Thinking about using a turkey fryer and some bricks. Any thoughts?

JRStriker: Great to hear u got the MOCA working. Care to share what I didn't do on the router that I should of done?

welcome back to tennis wookie. sounds like the tennis clinic was fun except for the part where you run around the court doing laps and cardio. if i wanted to run laps and do cardio -- i would run laps and do cardio. more racquet on ball action.

CB let's hit soon. thanks to sandbag king paulman, i now have three londons that are all over the place in specs. but the lightest and most headlight one plays the best. at least to me. i guess i can't complain about quality control on sticks that are probably going to be discontinued.

messed around with the mfil 300's. decent power and spin but not exactly comfortable. not a fan of dunlop grips either. wanna try em out with prince resipro replacement grips which to my hands feels a little bit like heaven.

when did u get the third London? Sure, gotta let my knees recover first. Maybe by end of this week (at least). I have to try them 300's. I swung with those and it felt pretty nice. I am so addicted to lighter weight stiff racquets now. Do alittle lead adjustment and good to go.

CB: Honestly, I'm not sure if I could pinpoint the problem. It took me a couple of tries to get it right (the instructions were missing a few steps in terms of setting the IP ranges so you could change the IP of the "MOCA'ed" router - I also took your advice in provisioning IP addresses on the main router). I had to factory reset and retry a few times after I disabled the wrong setting and connected it to the coax.

Once I got all the settings right and finally got an internet connection on my laptop (I turned off wifi on the "MOCA'ed" router and connected with a Ethernet cable) I connected it to my Xbox.

On the Xbox, I still had to manually format the gateway, and DNS server addresses from the "MOCA'ed" router to my primary WI-FI router for the Xbox to get a proper internet connection.

Streaming is now a snap - All HD on Netflix. I love it. However, seems like people lagging now get the jump on me in FPS.

It's working so far. But since there were some kinks in automatically detecting the settings and IP - I'm just wondering if things might break down the road. I think there still might be something off with the way its assigning IPs. For some reason my laptop had the DNS IP and Gateway IP changed to the second "MOCA'ed" router even after I disconnected and went to WiFi. Had to fix by turning off the MOCA router and requesting a new IP.

Yeah, feels good to be back.

There was plenty of hitting practice, and I much rather run when I know there's tennis involved. Yeah, we ran a lap but there was a tennis drill after every lap so much better than a boring run (anyone remember Sup's around the world drill??). Fortunately this was only about the first 15-20 minutes. After that it was king of the court and dingles variations.

My sad state of conditioning showed how far I need to go to get back into 4.0 singles shape. Hitting the gym hard once my knee is a little less sore.

Anybody watch the amc series 'the walking dead'. I ask if the zombies attack which 4 other members beside yourself would you want/need to survive.

Myself, and:

-xisbum, who probably been seen it all.
-Hw, who probably knows everything else xisbum doesn't know.
-sappy, who probably has every gadget. Also could find a buffet serving in the middle of the chaos.
-topaz, for first aid.

Honorable mention: Jrk, who probably has the guns an ammo, but would either bleed to death while cutting up a guacamole, or argue with zombies for their dress attire. Dats, who somehow attracts the living to punch him ... Could possibly be better target for Zombies than oneself.

Borderlands 2 looks really good. I'd pick it up but I have no time to play it.

IMHO - Wait a year for the next gen of consoles or get a gaming PC.

Ill play this game

Sup, who would buy me crab soup and beers
Xis, who would buy me BBQ, 100 Year Old Greaseburgers and beers
Sappy, for aforementioned gadgets
TFM (GRHS), who would buy me 1 beer after trying to bilch on the bet.

Sorry JRK and Dats you guys would possibly make to big of a dent in my beer reserves.

If I didnt have an Xbox 360 already I would probably wait and see what the new ones look like.

Most of the games I play now are cross all the platforms so to me it would be whichever had the best graphics. So of the current ones It woudl PS3. Bonus points for the Blu-ray player.

Thats all I got is a 360 and that will probably be all I am going to have for a freakin long time.

[sapient007]

you guys want me because i'm over 220lbs and is prob delicious grilled
