Hello


A tennis legend forever! by Clucas


One of my idols is the gracious tennis champion, Monica Seles. When Monica walks out onto a tennis court her intensive attitude excites all spectators and makes for a very competitive match, at least from Seles anyway!

What Monica possesses that is both rare and unique on the WTA tennis circuit is that even after all her success and hardships she still manages to stay focused in every match and is always determined to win every point she plays.

Monica's phenomenal work ethic, ability to hit winners and tenaciousness has earned her the success that she deserves. These attributes are vital to all competitive sports people and they should be observed by young, aspiring athletes of all denominations.

Although there has been much speculation about Monica's retirement she has confirmed that she will be playing the Australian Open in January 2003 which must indicate that she has an intention of leaving Melbourne a winner and adding a 5th Aussie Open to her collection.

Unfortunately I feel that the pure dominance of the Seles era is coming to a sad end and I know that I will always remember Monica Seles as the admirable tennis champion who achieved great success and the love of so many tennis fans! I will refuse to remember this remarkable tennis player and human being as the champion that was deprived of so much more!

True And Amusing Anecdotes




Hello


Bizarre or funny things that really have happened!



Kindness In The Subway by Brangwen

I take the train to work and trudge through the station and along the streets with all the other nameless others, rarely receiving a smile or even a glance. My opinion of humanity was slowly dropping. However, today that all changed.

I was at the train station, and it had been raining, so everything was wet and slippery. There is one escalator that is quite long and people like to be speedy and walk down it, but there was a jam at the bottom today. When I got to the end I discovered why. An elderly man has slipped and hit his head on the ground, and was bleeding profusely. I wanted to help him, until I realised that he already had three wonderful people looking after him. Two were big burly looking men, standing either side to protect him and keep sticky beaks moving, and another older gentleman who was sitting on the ground in the wet, holding a handkerchief on his bleeding head.

I doubt those gentlemen will read this, but if by chance they do, I just wanted to say thankyou. You've made me believe in human kindness again.

True And Amusing Anecdotes

Roses In The Snow by Shello

Heading off with friends to ski Mt Hotham we stopped at Mansfield to hire some equipment. Upon arrival at our chalet I discovered my wallet was missing with the contents being $300.00 amongst other things. We backtracked to the ski shops to check and no one had my wallet but one shop said they had found "a sum of money".


A few days after returning home I received a call from a guy who had found my wallet on the side of the road near Mansfield complete with cash. He told me he had also lost exactly $300 himself somewhere on the way to the snow. How strange, I said, one of the ski shops had found some money. A day later he came around to return my wallet, gave me a big bunch of roses and told me he had also received his money back thanks to my information.

We both decided fate was telling us we were supposed to meet so went out on a date! I also learned that it's best not to leave your wallet on the car roof!
