This morning at the office the printer/copy machine ran out of paper. I got a couple of reams and started to kneel down to put the paper in the bottom tray when a woman whom I wouldn’t classify as “young” asked, “Would you like me to do that? I’m younger than you…” That really brought me up short. I must be starting to look old … I sure don’t feel old!

Well, at least not until this evening. Five trees are being delivered and planted tomorrow. Tom, the mower boy, with vacation and school starting, hasn’t been able to mow the grass for about a month. The places were the trees are going were rather deep in grass. Tom couldn’t get here until tomorrow night. So, I’ve mowed the grass once again. I’m pooped. Andre Aggasi is loosing in the semifinals at the US Open. Maybe he’s feeling a bit old tonight as well. I was hoping he’d be able to pull it off and win a Major one last time. Time to go to the hot tub!

Stop the presses!!Three asprin and a soak in the hot tub, I came back quite refreshed to find Agassi had come back! The game went to five sets. Agassi pulled it out in a tie break! Incredible.

A HUGE Thumbs Down, however to the USA Network. I’ve sent them an email with the subject line: How Absolutely Stupid of You!!

The best game of the US Open. The absolutely incredible Agassi comeback.

You break away before the match is finished for an inane rerun of Law and Order.

How incrediby stupid. I remember the Heidi incident from a number of years ago. 
You've managed to be more stupid than that.

Dumb, dumb, dumb.

You owe the tennis world a major apology along with eating a big dose of crow.
