Wayside are based near here, in Silver Spring, MD, though I don't think they have a brick-and-mortar store... Pat, correct me if I'm wrong. I'm sure they will be at ProgDay though, and I can't wait to take advantage of the great stuff they had there - and at very good prices too!

Yes, I don't believe they have a "store", but I would love to visit their HQ one of these days.  I want to see if I've spent enough money for them to know who I am.  LOL

I'm taking a German course this July. Big smile They tested me and I was okay enough, so to not start from scratch.

A bit worried about not mastering a lot of vocabulary though, which was sadly not a major aspect of the test (it was more matching words, filling the text, putting the right articles, spelling and writing). Unhappy

I hope they know who I am... I've actually e-mailed Steve Feigenbaum before now and got a reply. Big smile

She can put up some decent makeup in real life, but on the field...yeah. All fiber.

I don't have Razzano vs. Schiavone as an option. Cry

What happened with Oudin's match in the end?

Lost it.

Wozniacki's losing too, noooo....Cry

PS: You probably don't have R vs Sch as an option, because the match is already over. LOL

Damn, although Oudin is American (but of French origin) I wanted her to win, 'cause she's had to come through the qualifiers.  That's a lot of games!

And erm... I just saw Razzono/Schiavone and I have no idea what you're talking about in terms of visuals... Pinch

Exactly! LOLPinch


They're showing people sleeping at Verdasco/Karlovic, that's how annoying the game must be.

I mean, the girls weren't particularly attractive to me... I'm not sure if that's what you meant or not.

I have to admit German vocabulary is a bit of a sore point with me. As good a memory as I have,  I still find it hard to remember words, even when I have seen them a lot of times. Anyway, I think that now my German has become very rusty due to lack of useUnhappy, as all my languages other than English have.

Raff, I'm curious to know what accent you have when speaking English?

And have you now got a slight American twang?  Something you said in here the other day sounded a little bit American, hence why I was asking.

YES!

I couldn't even tell who's Razz and who's Schiavone.

I know some German....my prime skills are not vocab-based. I mean to try to learn it to the point of being able to at least read it pretty well this Summer. Probably not going to, but worth the effort.

Let's not put down the Italian race though, Rico.  There's a lot of beautiful and lovely Italians, like our Raff, for instance. Big smile
