Sinner at age 22 suffering from cramps and moving like an 80 year old!
It's supposed to be hot and humid tomorrow when Gumby takes the court vs cutie Fritz! Gumby hates the humidity.

7-0 h2h though, 6 of them in straight sets. Fritz would need to win 3
sets v Novak in a slam - seems almost impossible. Novak would have to
be seriously limping around to make a match of this.

Sadly, yes. I fear he will devour Fritz again. I have to run out to do a couple of errands this morning. It may be over before I get back.

I watched the entire Shelton/Tiafoe match. Tiafoe basically checked out
so early that I cannot recall when, exactly. Might have been the tie-breaker, but in honesty, with that many breaks against Shelton it
should never have gone to the tie-breaker.
At this moment there is something wrong with Shelton's game. It's more
than simply an over-application of youthful power. It is maybe his BH.
I'll have to consider.
Tiafoe seems like a lost cause. I had high hopes for the boy for a
couple of years, but...

Still, I think Pipe Cleaner will probably win in straights or four. I'd love to be wrong and see an upset.

I don't have issues admitting when I was wrong - eg was wrong many times
re Novak, happy to admit it when I get the evidence. I get little

It's more that they politicize all aspects of identity--including gender, sexual orientation, and race above all. Starting with Virginia's "black codes" in the colonial era, a person was classified as black if they were known to have any black ancestry

The thing is, you predict so much it's a lot of work to credit you for everything.

blood is enough to spoil your white heritage. That might actually even
be the correct explanation... as this sort of race classification comes

Speaking of US history... what generally happened to "accidents" with
black slave women? Were they aborted? Did they become masters / stayed slaves?
One would assume there was quite a lot mixing as US blacks are not very black compared to African blacks.

As best I can tell, TT, this is where the American idea of "passing"
comes from.
So let's suppose a situation where a property owner white man, with land
and slaves to work it--but not necessary a wealthy man, just relatively well-to-do--is unmarried (no kids) and he has a sexual hankering for one
of his female black slaves. Let's say that she, herself, is a 1/2 black,
is relatively light complexioned. She bears a son and he is 1/4 black
and is like Shelton--hard to say for sure.
The mother, realizing that her child has a much better future if
accepted as white, may encourage him to try to pass as white. The father might even try to help, if he is so motivated. In rare cases, he might
leave property to the son.
Yes, there are very many "black" people here is the US who don't look
very African.

Thanks guys. It's always fun to learn about history.
As it happens I have recently delved into US history a bit.
It all started with this clip, which I have already watched several
times...
https://youtube.com/shorts/U-iaEvU7qcE?si=9x6d9Lzsd-UoTDMq
I've also watched this clip a few times to extend my knowledge on the
topic:
https://youtube.com/shorts/zsIIOJISq88?si=nHnnMTeD4-Qqa390
Needless to say, I consider myself already quite an expert on
Gettysburg. And I'm willing to learn still more!
