i UNDERSTAND, i'm close to your age Fred, it's good for us old guys to stay up all night like we were 40 years old again and in our prime.Well, you know what I am talking about. All I took was about 9 or 10 decaf tea's. However, afterwards I spent all of Sunday and much of Monday whacked out on the couch. I aint stayed up that late for at least 20 years.

Dang dude, the last tourney I played in I fell apart at midnight
That's exactly what happened to me last year, in the last two local tournaments that I played in and that's why I've now stopped playing in them...

...postscript: And this finally occurred to me later...Jim, you're not allowed to be tired and fall apart at midnight since you're 20 years younger than us older guys...and along with that, unlike us older guys/the over-the-hill-gang, you're in tip-top shape from all your mountain biking, etc...:heh

tap, tap, tapGentlemen....Let's give the guys a break. It was a long day for the "players". The youngest guy in that made the semi-finals was "Ike" (and he is pushing 60). All the young guns (Neal Jacobs, Eric Hincks, the Werm etc..etc..) had been eliminated. Carter & Rawski are well into their 60s and for "Freddie" well...lets just say it has been a few years since he was asked to the "prom". So Again, CONGRATULATIONS to the "experienced players" who showed that "treachery, squeezing and deceit" can overcome "youth, vim and vigor" once in a while.
.....Freddie,a second wind at 4AM????Like Egytptian air from the tombs after a few centuries percolating.Your standing where you were 38 years ago,congrats and woe to those trying to jam your scam.A pure player just like in the movie......adieu my friend,James
