Are you following it? I like Tennis, I used to play in a club when I wasn't actually in to it much. Now I am a little, but I can tell you it doesn't mix well with holding a pencil and draw for a living!
See that bull terrier there? I once hit a ball over the fence and it bounced off this bull terrier's nose with a loud plopping sound and he showed no reaction!

I just started playing tennis last year and am terrible - it's going to take me quite a bit of time to get better. I really do enjoy your illustration though!
I had to play tennis as a child so my dad could have someone to hit the ball back to him. But I never liked it. I had to get up at 5 am and jog a mile to the tennis court just to please him. Once, when I was feeling rebellious, I hit the ball as far out of the court as I could to make him mad.
So he tossed down his tennis racket and decided to have me sent to a farm to work as farm laborer on a tobacco farm in Maryland! He called up the farm bureau and arranged my 3 days of work. lol! It's true!
While I was there I got to observe the local farmer redneck custom of blowing up frogs with firecrackers. That's one of the things they do down on the farm. :0)
that's hilarious, John!
Great news about the Washington book, I'm sure it will be a Xmas hit! It's a good time to buy books!
