I can't think of anything to say that wouldn't come over as sexist. So here's a news article on a giant squid.

It is in fact a COLOSSAL squid, TheDonF. No, I'd never heard of them either. The fact sheet linked on the site (and here) is fascinating.

I work in a small team of 6 people, only 2 of which are male. The other guy in the team brought up the Wimbledon thing up in a jokey tone of voice today and instantly regretted it.

Well, now I've figured out why Wii Tennis has a "Best of 3" and "Best of 5" option. I always play "Best of 5".

Will they still get the plate rather than the trophy?

And yet they still play fewer sets.

And yet, the women's game is much more interesting these days, the stars more recognizable and marketable, the matches more exciting, and the outcome more in doubt.

I mean, who the hell really cares if Roger "The most boring tennis star since Pete Sampras" Federer really wins ANOTHER tournament?

Is it ironic that Federer vs. Sampras at their respective heights would be simultaneously the greatest and most boring match of all time?
