A woman broke up with me and sent me pictures of her
and her new boyfriend in bed together .
The solution ?

I sent them to her dad.



*************
Hello readers !

I'm delighted to know that 76% of you guys are all infertile !




Just kidding .

Anyways , let's start off with some really good stuffs shall we ?



***********


Roger Federer having faltered ever so briefly against Igor Andreev in the first round , made tennis look easy again in dismissing the Romanian Victor Hanescu 6-3 , 6-2 , 6-2 today to assert his authority on the Australian Open .

He hit 52 winners and made just 17 unforced errors against the clay-court specialist . The aura lingers .

While he was rarely under pressure in the 99 minutes it lasted , it was professional stuff . The Spaniard Alberto Montañés will be readying himself already for a serious examination of his resolve on Saturday ( Alberto will face Federer ) .

But the fact that Federer was being the usual maestro is not what fascinated fans on that particular day .


Prince William waves to Roger Federer
Roger Federer waves to HRH Prince William .


After wrapping up his royal visit at New Zealand , HRH Prince William dropped by to watch one of Roger's games .

During which time , Federer was against Victor Hanescu . A perfect moment to show the 27 year old prince of Britain who is waiting in line to the throne , what a fantastic player he( Roger ) is .


After the game , his royal highness had a chance to talk a little with the maestro himself .






Below are excerpts of Roger’s post-match press conference tonight:



Q. Were you warned beforehand that there may have been a Royal visitor tonight during the match ?

ROGER FEDERER: Yes , I was warned .


Q. Did you expect the reaction that came with the flashes and the cheering and stuff like that ?


ROGER FEDERER: For him when he walked on ?


Q. Yeah .

ROGER FEDERER : Of course . I think I've had situations where someone walked in and there was big round of applause .

I'm used to it because I play a lot of primetime matches where there are very important people watching .

This one tonight was obviously extremely special . It's a pleasure , of course , playing in front of him .


Q. What would be the most intimidating person that's come to watch a match of yours ?

ROGER FEDERER : Well , used to be my friends and parents early on . Then it goes other athletes , actors and musicians , Royal Highness . Just moves on .

So I've had plenty . Obviously depends on the situation .

Obviously having legends of the game watching , for me , is very nice always .

But then , of course, where he comes from , you know , he knows tennis , and Wimbledon's big , you know .

So for me it was very ‑‑ I mean , a big honor that he came to watch me .


Q. Will you get a chance to chat more informally to William later , maybe see him later tonight ?

ROGER FEDERER : I saw him briefly just before the press conference . Got a little chance to talk .


Q. What did he say to you ?

ROGER FEDERER: What did he say ?


Q. Yeah .

ROGER FEDERER : He was happy he could make it . Yeah , I mean , I'm not gonna tell you everything he just said to me .

You've got to have a little bit of a secret .

No , he looked really happy coming to a sports venue . I think he's had a very busy schedule the last few days . He shook a lot of hands , and I knew mine was one more.

From what I've heard , I think he met Serena and myself , and came to watch my match .

He said he was happy that I played a little bit longer , because the match could have ended even shorter . Yeah , so it was nice .





With kind permission by the ATP .





Based on this interview , there is clearly a humongous respect of the prince by Federer .









Prince William is fan of the Swiss professional , and even asked to get a picture of both of them taken , and be sent back to the palace in England .



HRH cracks up after Federer breaks open a joke
about his presence .



Besides Roger , the prince also met with Serena Williams and her mother .





But all of this has come to no importance whatsoever , because the fact that Federer has already beaten Hanescu ages ago .

This is old news .

He's already beaten Alberto Montanes by 6-3 , 6-4 , 6,-4 and will face Aussie hero Lleyton Hewitt
or 2006 finalist Marcos Baghdatis .


***********


As usual , today's Sunday .

I hate Sundays . Without them , there can be no Mondays .

Oh , it turns out my school IS sending some tennis players for the MSSD .

So , everything's cool for now . I just hope that I am up to standard .

Anyways , I'll see you fellow readers some other time .

See ya !





Signing off ,
