I'm off Sofia's bandwagon until the indoor season.

Post by janie on May 17, 2005 20:33:09 GMT -5
That bandwagon has probably been traded in for one of those little red Radio Flyer wagons by now, with only a couple of her little cousins aboard. Beep beep! ;D

I don't think I have seen one of those wagons, but it sounds about right.

From a British article "British hopeful Elena Baltacha has crashed out of the French Open at the first qualifying stage today. The Kiev-born 21-year-old went down to a surprise defeat at the hands of Dutchwoman Elise Tamaela 5-7 6-2 6-1 as hopes of a repeat of her Australian Open heroics faded in Paris." I have just 1 thing to say about that things to say: - Note the reference to foreign origins after a loss, an old British tradition - Surprise defeat my foot, she was lucky to win a set. Okay, 2 things to say.

Lenka Nemeckova (CZE) def. Stephanie Dubois (CAN) 1-6 6-4 10-8 Oh no!!!!!! <picture appropriate faces here> because: THESE FRIGGIN SMILIES DON'T WORK FOR ME SINCE THE "UPGRADE"!! That is, clicking on the icons no longer works, so if I want smilies I have to remember how to spell them out every time. What a pain! How is this an "upgrade"? Probably it's an anti-Macintosh thing.
