Kat, it is King's Island.
Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Thanks. I couldn't remember and kept thinking King's Dominion but I think that must be somewhere in Virginia.

ita! I am so sad that I missed the men's final. I got to see like the first serve, but I wasn't at home and had to follow plans made by others.
I thought that the women's final was also amazing.
I was somewhat sad that the 2nd men's semi was rained out on Friday because I figured that whoever was meeting Federer on Sunday needed that rest.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wouldna helped, I swear. It might have made the match longer, but Roger was large and in charge.
TiVo saved my tennis-watching ass. Made me paranoid, though, that someone was going to spoil me before I could run home and watch.
Still, better than missing.

How was the Venus/Lindsey match, ita? It sounded epic.

Yeah, the one or two shots that I saw -- well, clearly if it went on the way it started, Roddick could have just gone home.
But he played well? And it just wasn't enough?

I wandered off (not to wash dishes), but yup, it's King's Island. Man, it's been a long time since I've been there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The women's final was brutal -- longest women's final both in games and time elapsed in the open era.
The score doesn't show how much Lindsay bettered Venus in the first set -- I thought it was another Williams choke, myself. But Venus summoned all she had both at the close of the first (fruitlessly) and at the close of the second -- and she didn't fall back, even though they went past where they'd have played tiebreak in other tournaments.
Really great tennis.
But he played well? And it just wasn't enough?
Oh, he was good. But Federer's ability to get the passing shot in -- you could just see Roddick's shoulders fall every time a good one slid past his reach.
which GL do you get in the mornings? Kyle? John? Hal? Just curious, you know.
Well, if she answered that personal, I think it's John. Hey, as long as it's not Guy.

I found a stack of pictures of me with cartoon characters from Kings Island. I'm officially weirded out by them.

Ita -- I liked that Roddick quote from your earlier post. I think that Venus and Lindsay really do have a good rivalry, particulary when both are on their games as they were on Saturday.
