hey zap, was there any truth to the rumor that you might've come to hit last friday at Towers?

if we ever do hit, please wear the longest basketball shorts without pockets you own so i get the full experience!

p.s. - please somebody translate this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbLHaf4ouAo

do we have any Japanese macers? we've got everything else... maybe a robot can assist? i want to know what they think of the vcore89.
i think they say it is perfect for lazy old men with beer bellies with twisted wrister technique.. but im pretty rusty on my japanese.
moshi moshi and domo arigato!

p.s.s. - anybody from twmac want a wilsonblxproopen? i have extra one or three. 75each. i might keep 1or2 but definitely have an extra. 11outof10 condition.werd. please see my classified post. werd.

Auzzie, TWMAC meet at your home courts? Just book the flights for everyone and we'll show up at the airport...
Nice, when would you like to fly?

in all fairness to zap, he was invited but he declined already.
but I am sure if we all will chip in for a bigger alarm clock and upgrade his shampoo to pert plus I am sure we will entice him to come to the next meet. =)

i tried CC.. it is still in beta mode and let me just tell you.. it doesn't work for japanese.
unless this makes sense.

"registration postponed.. what comedy..are compared with those start Criminal Division.. in particular there was a Futura Director.. Ayana same five festival..this Spring..was hanging Chinese..."

wtf?
i think he basically says great for advanced player but you need really good mechanics. serves bombs but not great at spin serves. great feel on volleys. even with good mechanics, against good players you are not going to be able to win playing from the baseline. you will need to hit big serves and play attacking tennis and put pressure on your opponent at the net.

i ordered my demo from some place in the middle of the west and i guess it isnt in stock. there demo system is turrible. oh well. too cold and rainy anyway. this groundhog going back in my hole until sun comes back out. fark i need to go somewhere sunny but the ol ball and chain won't stop talking about going to utah to ski. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO... me want SUN... chix in bikinis... beer... buffalo chix wings... and tennis!! woo woo

A quick, simple way to lose 5-10 lbs:
Take the time you go to bed and subtract 4 hours. Stop eating at that time.
Seriously, I did this 5 years ago and it works. In two weeks you will notice a difference. You don't have to change anything else, just stop eating 4 hours before going to bed.

that's a good tip. Our family always finish dinner by 7:30pm. It's a habit we've been enforcing for a long time.

We've been to Keystone, CO many times. Very family-friendly place with many, many slopes and a real good ski/snowboard school.

People are different, but I'm not a fan of skipping breakfast. If I do, I tend to eat twice as much during lunch. Plus I'm so hungry it's hard to be smart and eat the better stuff rather than just grab a massive sandwich or pizza.

----

Lunch is grilled chicken drumsticks, brown rice and salad with Trader Joe's Tuscan dressing. That dressing is good. I had to stock pile.
