My thoughts on NFT (Sia Siberia & Co.)? Given the numbers that are appearing right now it's only one: you're out of your mind....Think we need to get the video out of John McEnroe playing tennis at WimbledonYou cannot be serious manYOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS
I had a big laugh recalling this scene... especially because I was in a little corner of the stands, back in 81.
At the time (sigh... happy young memories...), I had a Scottish girlfriend who was also an invited student in my university, in Lille.
As I discovered later, she had a wealthy and distant father (her, absolutely not mine). She knew I was poor like most students are, and totally in awe of Borg but could not see him, no seats. She invited me for the only possible match with McEnroe, and I sneaked to London from Calais, crawling on my bicycle - not enough money for my 2cv car on the Sealink ferry - , and it was one of the peak memory in my life...
2 geniuses - especially one - playing a dream tennis. And the "gasp" from the very distinguished noble royal perfectly-mannered totally-frigid a-nice-cup'o-tea British crowd.
Now, this kind of burst (and the umpire totally lost!) is something rather mild and seen repeatedly on tennis courts, with many many more destroyed rackets. But at the time, it was like Nielsen sliding down a table on his belly until stopped between the legs of the (actor) Queen.
For many there, it was *****. A pure shame. An absolute no-no. A devastating experience. The Alien ***** emerging from a live stomach would have been less disturbing...
I think I lost my girlfriend toward this time. I could not stop laughing at what happened, and it was sooooo shocking for her... that she quickly understood staying more with me was not appropriate for a Nessie clan...
I think she would have been less shocked if I had suggested an anal intercourse.
Sorry for this totally off-topic tranche-de-vie. Could not resist the memory. Mod, feel free to erase it.
But much more fun than this NFT thing...
