If Rod Laver Were Dead, He Would Be Turning Over In His Grave

This Foolishness…Or Is It? has been published twice. The first time the picture of Venus Williams in action was as big as the picture of Roger Federer.

After publishing it, I had second thoughts about the Venus Eye Trap picture. It is not the type of thing I normally incorporate into my Foolishness. It is not sophisticated. Punch It is not high class. Red rose It just does not belong. Thumbs down 

If you want to see the picture larger, you can click on it and it will get bigger. Before you do that please understand that while the picture may not be X Rated but it is definitely R Rated.

If you do click on it, that is your choice and your having done so does not take away from the sophistication or the classiness of my Blog. Smile


It is that time of the year when those of us who enjoy tennis pay a lot of attention to what’s happening on TV because what’s happening on TV is Wimbledon!

  • It is time to talk about who is playing who.
  • It is time to be amazed at the dexterity of the sports’ finest athletes.
  • It is time to talk about records broken, about to be broken and might be broken.

It is wonderful to behold … Or at least it used to be.

Today we appear to be distracted by another tennis happening … Tennis Outfits.

Ain’t it awful. Sick smile

I have been known to miss shots while I play tennis. From now on I will console myself by saying, “At least I don’t look as bad as Roger Federer”.

Would I kid u?
