still giving me hope during these dark times

[intertribal]

Part of the reason I keep a livejournal is so I can remember hilarious things, years later. For instance, while listening to Roland Garros radio eight years ago, I discovered a wonderful tennis commentator by the name of Richard Evans, who was commentating a painful women's match on his own, running out of things to talk about, and wondering when dinner was. Years passed, I discovered Robbie Koenig, and I would have forgotten all about him if not for going back through old entries. Richard Evans, I thought. You cantankerous bastard. Whatever happened to you?

Look who showed up on my Twitter feed just now:

If @rogerfederer manages his schedule - which he will - & body holds up, all things are possible for this amazing 35-yr-old. 90th title!

Never change, Richard Evans! (Never change, Roger Federer!)
