And this now prompted me to internet search the answer to: What year did tennis balls become yellow?
As I only had a vague recollection of it being sometime in the early to mid-'70s, the answer I found was 1972.

Nice photo. My wife started playing tennis about 2 years ago. Thursday night is her weekly practice \ game sessions, and she is hoping the courts are dry, so they don't have to cancel.Dargo wrote: ↑February 8th, 2024, 6:26 pm The view out one of the front windows of my house taken 10 minutes ago, and the result of Pacific atmospheric rivers when they hit the higher elevations of northern Arizona, and why my tennis matches were once again cancelled today...WAAH!
(...yeah yeah, I know...what a crybaby, huh!)

Hey, don't you have access to any indoor courts? E.g. where do you play during those hot summer days?

May I suggest this stand-in for the neighbor's white car, though:

Oh, yeah, Dargo: I actually considered sending it to you for a combo of film and the ski rack before going with the white one...Dargo wrote: ↑February 8th, 2024, 10:10 pmYeah, the would be nice. Cool car.NoShear wrote: ↑February 8th, 2024, 9:55 pm

Actually though, there is a guy who lives right down the road who's a big Porschephile. One of his cars is a classic old 911 similar to that one, but his is blue.
All this now reminds me of the yellow 911 that Redford drove in 'Downhill Racer' here...
(...bet you remember this too, don't ya NS)
Nah, not really, NS. Ya see, I'm not one of those "win at all costs" kind'a guys. Never have been, in fact. I've always been more the kind'a guy who's prized playing a well-played match by all involved, than I have the idea of who wins and who loses. Although, it does always feel better to win a well-played-by-all set and/or match, of course.

On Sunday, someone will not win the Superbowl.
Companies will pay 7 million bucks for a 30 second spot.
Going to the game costs something like $6500 as a starting price.
For the record, I have no clue who Usher is but have seen Reba in concert.
So if someone made a terrible throw, you may have caught a "fowl ball." That makes you at least 21+57, right?laffite wrote: ↑February 9th, 2024, 4:40 pmI attended Super Bowl I and it cost me $20. True.jimimac71 wrote: ↑February 9th, 2024, 11:52 am Winning at all costs reminds me of Tonya Harding.

My watering hole of choice got group tickets.
The seats were in the end zone. When an offense was playing near my end zone they were pretty close. The other end zone was at the turnstile end (of the Los Angeles Colosseum) where there were no seats.
If you're referring to the east end of the L.A. Coliseum here laffite, the one where the column for the Olympic flame is located, that is known as the "peristyle" end of the stadium, not the "turnstile" end.
