Just got back from a couple of days with Mav in Vegas. We played tennis at the Monte Carlo. We were in the lobby of the MGM Grand with our rackets and this older guy came up to us. He asked to look at our rackets, I play with an oversize and Mav plays with a regular size. The guy said that all the great servers like Sampras and That Crazy Russia all use the regular size and that guys who can’t serve like Aggasi play with an over seize. Mav and I just looked at each other in confusion. When the weird guy walked away people came up to us and asked us if we knew who we were just talking to. We said know. Turns out it was Mr. Aggasi, Andre’s dad. Andre as you all know had just won the Australian Open a few days earlier. Oh yeah and we hung by the pool, went out to eat, went clubbing, and I watched Arsenal win a FA match 5-1. I have to save that Las Vegas has the most pristine toilet facilities in the world. Any world traveler can appreciate that.

Normally, I hate vegas, but I had a good time. Although we were there for work, we managed to have alot of fun, and avoided (for the most part)gambling. If I'm going to lose money, I might as well lose it on alcohol, which I did.

McC, you missed the strip club, where Zac told the dancers I was a producer, and suddenly I was very popular.

I have to say, if you must work, work with a bunch of artistic alcoholics. It's more fun that way.

we don't have the andre & steffi advert, maybe because no one here who follows tennis likes Germany after what happened to Monica. or maybe I give them too much credit I don't know. But I did hear that Andre said that if he won a grand slam Steffi had to come out of retirment and will now play mixed doubles with her hubby at the French.

Americans are getting the Catherine Zeta Jones treatment from T-Mobile left and right. I have a Sprint cell phone but wish I could get one from T-Mobile but they ain't available in my area. I like their stuff because you can go to Europe and use the same phone you use here. Can't do that with Sprint or Verizon or the other big ones. Of course, ... go figure ... all of Europe is on one standard cell configuration ... America & Asia on another and T-Mobile is a German company.

I digress into technobabble...
