>>>The best though, was years ago when I was in my 20's. My buddy Steve and I used to go down to the YMCA to play table tennis. We got to be pretty good over time. One day we were playing a a young girl (probably about 14 or so) came and sat down to watch. She asked if she could play the winner. (You must know where this is going). We said, sure < snicker >. Well. as bad luck would have it, I beat Steve. She and I played 3 games. Over the course of those 3 games, I got one, count 'em, ONE point. I found out later that she was Violetta Nesukaitis who would become the only Canadian to win the Women's US Open Table Tennis championship 4 times.

Yeah and I bet she had a good back-hand and smash! One tends to forget that, tennis players in particular, must have emensely strong arms. :-)
