Funny stuff!

I dont think Ive written this before.

I was telling my brother in law that his name had recently been used as an accolade for a fine tennis shot. This started when I was playing Tennis with my Daughter. She is a very good player. I must say there is serious trash talking on the courts with all my children. For some reason when they were younger I thought it would toughen them up for tournaments and matches if good old dad gave them serious abuse when playing. As they have gotten older I have had some "pause" over that decision.

In a fairly close match I let loose with an awesome serve that she barely had time to move to let alone hit back. I exclaimed, Not even george Fuller (BIL) could get that one". Now George is my age but a ranked player, very good. He thought it funny to have his name used that way.

next time we played, she served me an Ace and I muttered somthing about how george couldnt have reached it and my daughter retorted rather sarcastically, "yea because he's old and slow". I havent told george about the new usage.
