Folks,

As long as we are just shooting the bull today, I
thought I would try this one on you. Not sure what
it has to do with IDL, except that thinking about
it has had me avoiding most of my work today.

I played tennis on Saturday. There are about 2-3 times
a year when I'd really prefer NOT to be playing tennis
and that was one of those days. It was probably the
worst day of tennis I've had in the past 2-3 years!

Last night, the Monday night doubles turned to singles
(which I seldom ever play anymore), I somehow left my
(badly needed!) glasses out of my tennis bag, and I'm
sure I played the two best sets of tennis I have ever
played in my life!

Here is my question. What principle of the Universe
explains this, and how would you use this principle
to predict my future performance (tonight, for example)?

Extra credit given for any explanation that will help
me convince my wife I need new rackets.

Cheers,

David
