I think it was unnecessary of R.M. Vaughan* to mention the Special Olympics when I told him that Sally and I are playing badminton on the schoolyard across the street from my house. We believe that we are practising an extreme street version of the sport and comments like that just make us self conscious about hugging everyone whenever we score a point

He also chose to inform me that he had googled "mentally challenged" and badminton and got this image of a Major General in the U.S. military.

Gen

So FUCK YOU RICHARD because he's joining our team.

He can play on your side.

Ok, you made me do a google image search on "mentally challenged" and "badminton", and I got this:
http://www.corriere.it/Media/Foto/2002/10_Ottobre/21/FILIPINO--550x342.JPG
I think it means someone's ass is going to get kicked.
I think it also means that google's image search is essentially random. And I don't mean that the way the kids mean it.

Well well Sally, on my side not only do I have a Major general, but I also can get, courtesy of Rob's Google search, the big shiny shoe. I think your bid for the Queen's Plate Badminton Championship is doomed.

big shoe

Is that a Florscheim shoe?

"The Brown Wing Tip. The brown wing tip-also sometimes called a "brogue"-is the ultimate classic shoe. It's a lot like an oxford, except wing tips have little holes punched into the leather in a pattern. Doesn't sound familiar? Think of the opening of My Three Sons. Those snappy little tapping toes were wearing wing tips, kids. The brown wing tip looks great with a gray pinstripe suit, as it does with a pair of jeans and an oxford shirt. And who doesn't love versatility?"

Classique!

Tanya just joined the badminton league, so let us see, so far, on my side of the court, I have a Major General, a giant brown classic Wing Tip, someone's three sons, (one is named Chip), and now, mr. nobody. We just got back from a four hour shopping marathon at the big hardware stores and Canadian Tire where I picked up a Power Blade and FEATHER badminton shuttlecocks, so I am totally invincible, and will answer your serves with neutron bombs.

Don't worry sal, I have your back. I we can keep from squabbling we'll kick ass.

The net is still up at Mt.P. When yall finish beating each other up bring the winner down here and me and Bernadette and Bill and Tom and the eminent professor doctor will take you on. I am all for the higher quality shuttlecocks. We destroyed a half dozen of those plastic ones. Nice looking wingtip, but does it got game?

yesterday when I was playing with Nanmac a tiny pug puppy picked up our bright yellow 'cock and ran all around the park in circles while it's owner's scampered around after it saying "sit sit sit."
- sally mckay 7-17-2007 5:34 pm


he he he he he...uh hu huh....she said cock.
- mbutthead (guest) 7-17-2007 10:28 pm


Sally and I destroyed a feather birdie yesterday, the plastic ones last longer, but we liked the weight of the feathers.

It makes a better noise when you hit it really really hard. And then the little feather bits fall slowly to the ground around you.
- sally mckay 7-18-2007 10:21 pm


And its so darn pretty and we get so happy that we have to hug everyone!
