Default Will you play Today?

This is just a question for the Americans .... But, are you man, or woman enough to go out and play on our national holiday. Rest assured I am not.


Oh, and if you are from the US .... Happy Thanksgiving

I've already played three times this week (Sun., Mon., & Tues.) plus I'm playing Saturday, so I think I'll skip today.

Ran a race this morning, now going to play golf, then back to watch some football. Then nap, feast, watch some football then some major Zzzzzzs. The weather here is perfect, and I have A LOT to be thankful for.

I forgot to mention my drill: two hours of tennis followed by an hour at the Dogfish Head Pain Clinic.

On the road visiting in-laws. Ran this morning but no tennis today.

Need to find the local courts for Friday and Saturday.

I'm from kali, so I'm both man/woman enough to play. Why not play? When the Puritans landed at Plymouth Rock the first thing they did was use it for a backboard. I've already killed my bird for the day, with the assistance of a naked ex-PETA girl I helped to overcome the health ravages of veganism after an all night intervention.

I've got an 8:30 practice court and if some injun' (sorry, indigenous American, by way of the Bearing Land Bridge), comes out of the woods, I'll be happy to share my bounty and introduce 'em to the noble game of tennis--maybe introduce 'em to free market capitalism and trade for a case of Costco Penns for some herb to spice up the stuffing.

Nope, I won't have time for it. Family is much more important than a game today.

I hit with my son for 2 hours just before lunch.

Had a great time! Beautiful weather while visiting the in-laws in SC.
