Scotch! I'm in... what are we doing again? Oh yeah.. hacksaw... nice.. Down's you and paulman are first. After some shots to spell our name. Vowels are doubles.
Why cut it down? Seriously. A 1/2 inch will give you an edge? Are you looking for swingspeed? Or are you yearning for a dora the explorer junior racquet.
I don't get the hackdown.
p.s. Downs. I'm selling both my pure storm tour GT plus.

Speaking of dark chocolate and chili - I've got to try a Mayan Chili-Chocolate latte at Tynan one day. Sounds good.
Diablo 3.... I'm sort of meh..... Playing through Mass Effect 3 right now.
What's for lunch? Thinking Pizza at Harris Teeter, it's surprisingly good.

sup, playing tennis with you have always been difficult. i believe you came in to dc 1ce or 2ice but it has been drive 1hr to reston since. how it's fly to Fl. and i can foresee a flight to central or south americas in the near future. this is becoming an expensive hit.

gosh today's an excellent day to hit. Unfortunately, I promised my kid pork chops and onion tonight for dinner.
I can use tmonk's laser precision groundstrokes to hit right to me so I won't injure my ankle more. Unfortunately, he'll use the exact same laser precision groundstrokes to take me out. So I better skip until my ankle feels better.

First: You are more than welcome to visit South Florida. We have barely no asians. The one who occasionaly plays at the club has recognized that he is a "butt" of drinking game joke. He gets big cheers at the club bar because they know I will probably buy the bar a drink. Thankfully he is the only one we've seen. If you come down, the advantage is yours on the clay or hard courts.
Second:Um. You must of put too much hot sauce in your food today.
Hitting with me was easy. I tended to drive to meet everyone. Endor was usually too far for everyone!
I recall driving to Howard Univ. to even give you a lesson for free (well blue moon was accepted).Taliban courts. Wakefield. Were you there when I set up the Legg Mason hit indoor? I remember driving to DC for sushi as well. I remember only driving to you to hit with you and not vice versa. Bamm.. yeah I went there.
You came to Reston (once). Only once johnny dangerously and not only did you have a blast at the tennis meet I put together. You ate you weight in BBQ, Tacos..

Here is a list of the top candidates.

sup, i'm not really a scotch expert by any means...but i like this highland park 12 year old that paulman recommended...never had famous grouse...

look how excited he gets! what frames are you using now? demo'ing?

Sup, if those PSTGT+ frames are 4-1/2 2011 versions - I'll buy them from you.
I won't even mind if you sent them Parcel Post! hahaha

i'm not a scotch drinker but my dad is an afficienado and i've been buying him scotch all my life. a blended scotch whiskey is not gonna make any top 10 list. i know he loves his glenlivet 18 and talisker 18. any older and they start getting pricey.

Dang it. They are 3/8s?
Can I send them via carier pigeon? Will you post immediately that you did not receive them the next day? Not pay. Get racquet. Get busted. Pay. Then adore Michael Jordan. Michael Jackson. I don't know. I need Scotch Whiskey.
P.S. When Ana Ivanovic talks she sounds so nervous. That little tremble in her voice. I'm listening to her now.
Alright Almagro vs Berdych! I'm rooting for Nicholas!

Sup, Almagro and Berdych already happened. That's Djoko, not Berdych. Little early for that much whisky isn't it?

Hahaha yeah I know.
Downs and I've done tons of drinking before playing tennis too - definitely not the best results! lol
JW Red is pretty harsh stuff. Black is way better for just a lil more. Green is OK. Gold is quite good but not for $80/bottle or whatever the hell it is now. And Blue is way way pricey now at close to $200 but it does go down (Downs?) very easy - almost tea-like.

Downs. I played Topaz left handed. It's a good workout. Lots of calories burned going up to the net to retrieve the ball from the other side. Phew.
On that note: 3 drop shot recipes. I find them delicious and funny at the same time. Brings back memories like Claire Forlani
Jager Beer Bomb - very very popular. This saturday it will be overdone. I am pretty positive I won't remember St.Patrick's day.
Hairball - It sounds nasty but I'll try it soon. Cider, Guiness and Whiskey.
Carjacker- Shoot me now. Cognac and Malt Liquor.
Ironically- A lemon drop isn't a drop shot.
The Pure Drive is a nice racquet. I took the demo out and it was nice. It just has too much power for me to tame. However, the whole south florida area has gone PD crazy. Everyone is coverting. A frenzy of those racquets everywhere. I think I saw them as a giveaway at seven eleven after your 12th slurpee purchase (kidding). I'm a big fan of pure drives.

You are totally right about it being Djoke. Was on another thread talking about the Berdych/Almagro match.. and whether Berdych shook his hands afterwards this time. Oh the drama that tennis can be.
...and its not early for whiskey during spring break week. The beach smells heavily of sun tan and warm beer. yummm...
Hey let's go hit HH before your match today! Sounds good?? Any objections Topaz?? :twisted:

Red only because of the pic. Evil Superman. I haven't tried any of the others.
Typical shot at the club bar. Jack Daniels. Me and my fellow Italian crazy doubles partner played a 4.0 doubles team. We took shots every third game. It went the distance to a third set tiebreaker, where we lost.. and I almost lost it in the corner of the court. Topaz, your partner Kelly was on the other side.
My drinking experience and math should be right. Typical person: For every beer you drink you lose .3 games progressively. So by the third drink, you'll handicap yourself -1 game against your typical result. The math also takes into account hydration for one's. Add sun and no water = x2. Substitute a shot (hard liquor) for beer = x4.
