Addendum:

Next time I am going to bring my Dad’s tractor and park it on the court, and my vehicle.

Good news: I used my tennis racket as a golf club slamming the tennis ball that strategically rolled over the tennis court to my coffee cup that had my late father’s photograph, perfect precision, a great father.

I visited the cemetary after a long drive, siztic pinch; and happily noticing my tennis racket was in the backseat of my old vehicle with a ball, or two. And of great distance, across the cemetary, I served my tennis ball wit perfect aim. The ball bounced in front of a tombstone, reversing directly in front of Dad’s granite marker, perfect velocity, and aim. I am sure Vater is smiling to this day.
He taught me to play tennis chess, and invested in my piano lessons. ‘Thanks’ to role models, tennis, Martina N. and Vater!

Fifteen Love.

Addendum: My tennis fan club:

Obnoxious Asian Indians entered my court, free hour betwen 8-9 am. Acute bad manners.

I changed my practise time to evening: Two Africans entered my court standing around, one almost 7 ft. tall, and one 5 ft.
I exited. ‘The heights of bad manners.’

Typical Texas experience: Monochromatic nightmare on board crossing my arpetheid tennis court line. They weren’t even hitting the ball over the net.

Since Martina moved out this state, I should, too. Next fan needs to be Anglo Saxon like me for EEOC quota.

I personally liked Martina’s autibiography, ‘very Europen’; and role model of historical Europen events dealing with real estate rustlers. My parents had the same problem with Cossack mentality of Baptist, Jews, (Kazars), Catholics, terrorist unsupervised USA military, atomic waste dump of cretins in Bell County.

I saw Martina in person years ago. Children were jumping up and down: “Martini!” As her vehicle made a left curve to her tennis court with her canine friend. And I was the told the most admirable comments about this tennis player from the children and their staff, of her great generousity, and sweetness, and love for children; and such a great role model.

My mother has greatly outlived the expectations of longetivity as a cancer victim. Key to her sucess: Of course, me, the only daughter, work horse and consuming multi fruits such as mangoes, and beets; and Tibetan prayers of my canines, ‘house shoes.’

I kind of built a little fan club practising serving tennis ball right handed with high velocity left handed swing from driving my late father’s 1948 8 N tractor, hay bales, bit, and horse sense of my equines. I can’t imagine anyone more wonderful than Marina N.
One of the few most memorable events in my life seeing a tennis player who so respected children, and a pro.

Let’s just hope this doesn’t turn out to be as bad as what Billie Jean King had to deal with when Mariyln Barnett sued her for “galimony”. After all, $200,000 seems like a decent settlement. But considering that Martina Navratilova makes millions, you’re only hearing this from a young writer coming from a lower middle-class family in Texas. Let’s hope and pray for the best out of this rather awful situation Martina is in.

Good grief, I think this is Martina’s third messy breakup, isn’t it? First Rita Mae Brown, then Judy Nelson. She’s no dope, you’d think she’d learn she’s gotta formalize these things in a relationship – just as any well-known, well-off, straight person would do.

Was she working for Martina or in a relationship? It’s so pathetic that when relationships end, it immediately becomes about money and property – oh wait, that’s the straight folks’ problem, right? I guess not. This woman should not be allowed to extort money from Martina by threatening to reveal ‘skeletons’ and those of us who admire and respect all that Martina’s done for our world shouldn’t be so eager to hear them.

It’s not like her ex didn’t share in the spoils of Martina’s millions when they were together. A little bit of a gold digger here? I guess I am conditioned from living in straight society. With straight folks I expect a divorce to be reasonably equatable when kids are involved. With same sex partners I think in my head that what’s yours is yours (no kids) and ol’ Martina shoulda had a prenup type device to avoid palimony issues. Being a guy I can’t imagine not having a job/career and have expected the same of any of my ex’s or BFs. I don’t want to support someone, live and retire on one income, and have to work until I am 65 or 72 to afford to retire. I rag on my straight friends for letting their wives stay home and not work outside the house. 50% of all marriages still end in divorce. Expect it.

Messy and catty
