I am in need of a male player for a grass triples tournament in Fuquay
this Sat. Snacks and beverages are provided at tournament. The team fee
is covered. Since I anticipated the B division being recreational, I
have signed up for the A division.
Any gold males looking to play this Sat. ?

No, not that kind of clinic.

Recently, Vaughn heard from a few people asking if he knew anyone that
would be willing to put on a volleyball skills clinic.  Since all the
actual talented players turned him down, he had to put some members of
the vh1vball.com staff to work.  Haven't you ever wondered how Jef
Lamoreaux hits his annoyingly short roll shot?  Or how Troy Plavec can
2-ball instead of setting his partner and still sleep soundly at night?
Or how Barry Huie's therapy is going after having pictures taken while
lying on the ground cramping as someone was posing over his helpless
body?  Well, probably not the last one.

We're thinking of holding it sometime in early July about a week
before the next K&Q, probably on July 10th.  As far as skill level, it
will be geared to the low-silver/bronze crowd, but anyone is welcome
and there's no charge.  It'll just be a couple hours some afternoon
where you can come by, do some drills, and maybe get someone to help with that
pesky passing problem.

Right now I'm just trying to see how many people would come to
something like this.  If you're interested in attending (or even
better, helping out), send me email and let me know.

Barry

Hey,

my usual partner decided to not play (again!), so I am looking for a
female silver partner for June 11th... Anybody interested?

-hendrik

A couple people I know are trying to start a poker night and I thought
I'd extend the invitation out to people in the K&Q group.

It will be held Thursday nights in the Cary/Morrisville/Brier Creek
area.  The game will probably be 2/4 Limit Texas Hold-Em, but that's
still under debate.  Please note that this is definitely geared toward
more experienced players, so it's not the best place to learn if
you're still figuring out how to play.  :)  It's still just meant to
be a friendly weekly game though.

Send me email if you're interested.

Barry

I will be moving to Charlotte soon and am looking to sell my pool table.  I
am asking  $450 for this beautiful 6ft bar pool table could be yours.
Wouldn't it be great to entertain with friends and play pool right at home?
This table comes with cues, balls, and rack.  The table is in great
condition, it has been well taken care of.  This is for a limited time only,
my move is scheduled for June 14th and it will come with me.

Buyer needs to provide shipping to destination.  Call me if you have any
questions or want to stop by to check it out.

Please pass this along to anyone you think would be interested.

I have recently moved back to Raleigh and was wondering if there are
still pick-up sand volleyball games at Jaycee Park?
Does anyone know?  If there are....can you let me know days/times that
people usually come out?

June Joust is less than 2 weeks away!  Make sure you
call or email with your registration before tournament
day to avoid $10 day off sign-up fee!  Remember that
this is a non-profit tournament, so all money coming
in, is going back out!  If we have enough teams signup
as co-ed, we will have a co-ed division, so note on
your registration along with what level of Men's you
want to play if you don't want to play co-ed or if
there aren't enough teams.

Thanks

I'm looking for a female partner to sign up for the bronze division of
the king & queen tourney this sat. If interested either email me
directly at thedjlacyc@... or just sign up at Vaughn's K&Q site.
Thanks.
Lacy

I'm looking for a female partner for this weekend's King/Queen
tourney, bronze level.  Doesn't look like Lacy's had any success --
but I figured it can't hurt to try.

Really like to play, but it isn't looking promising.  :(  I'd pay now
and play silver to snag a partner for sure, but
a) I'll get creamed in bronze anyway, and
b) unfortunately, I've never played two's other than in a single
pickup game or two, so my partner would kill me if shame didn't

Come on ... no takers and I'll have to put on a tankini and wig and
see if Lacy will play with me.

(How does it work ... if I pay online for the weekend now, but don't
find a partner ... will I get refunded morning of?)

Please?  Please? I know it is a little last minute, but I really want
to play Saturday and am still looking for that one female who might be
on the fence.  Not sure I can make any promises other than I'll do my
best to show you a good time!!  Please?  Please?  Let me know.  623-
1930

Just a reminder that June Joust 2-person volleyball tournaments make
their return this coming weekend.  The popular tournament of the late
1990's is back!  We hope to build this event into one of the largest
tournaments on the East Coast again.  In its last year in the 90's, we
hosted over 200 teams on over 40 nets, with vendors the likes of
Champion, Adidas, Sports Performance Centers of America, Budweiser,
Redsand Volleyball Clothing and Pepsi.

This year, we hope to have sponsors present during the event, as we
offer men's, women's and junior divisions.  We will offer Open, A and B
divisions.  Cash prizes will be awarded to Open and prizes will be
given for the other divisions.  Sign up today.  Limited space is
available.  To register, call Lane Newsome at 336-253-2204.  The
tournament will take place at Hester Park in Greensboro, this saturday,
June 18.  Play begins at 9 a.m.

A Father’s Day Special?

Since the King and Queen was coming up before Father’s
Day, it got me thinking about the whole idea of
creation. Then when I added the memory of how bad I
am, genius struck. I should make a robot!

Yes, while the rest of you were suffering through the
heat, humidity and muddy courts, I was home relaxing.
Oh sure, many of you thought you saw me there, but
that was actually my “son”, Robotic Clay. For the
astute, you may wonder why I wouldn’t build Robotic
Clay to be a bit taller (I mean, seriously). The bane
of all projects – budget cuts.

But I was able to give Robotic Clay special features
such as ‘heat resistance’, quick legs, no fear, and
removed his ability to feel pain (this comes in handy
when you combine effort and stupidity). Thus, even
against budget cuts and better players, Robotic Clay
didn’t do too bad. Of course in the end the answer
isn’t effort, but skill. Robotic Clay needs to
practice.

Of course, robots are not light. Robotic Clay has a
noticeable “pouch” these days. This is where he
carries all the servo motors – he is not fat! And at
the end of the day I asked my new son how things went.
To which he replied, “000100 %#$& 011100100
0100100101010.” Which roughly translates as “holy %#$&
was it hot.”

That kind of talk gets a kid a spanking. Anyway, he
also said he had a great time and his net was clearly
superior and filled with more “001011100”, though I
don’t know what that meant. Thanks to Lois, Jae,
Dasha, Emily, Jessica, Brian M, Jeff, Taylor and Chris
L for playing with a robot and for having fun all day.
Thanks to Vaughn for having everything ready to go
early.

  Hopefully I’ll be out there in person next time,
Clay “I would make a lousy Dr Frankenstein” Berry

Hey all
I'm sending out one of those desperate e-mails looking for a partner
for Saturday.  I would prefer to play women's but if I have to I will
play co-ed.  In advance I just want to say thanks for all those
heckling e-mails I am sure to receive because I am once again
partnerless.

Shelly

For the Charlotte Crush Grass Tournament this Saturday:

We have a few players looking for partners:

Thanks,
Christian

Anybody know of a local dealer for something equivalent to Sand Socks?
  The only dealer for Vincere Sand Socks is in Wilmington, but I figure
that there has to be something like them that I can get locally.
8-hour sand tourney starts tomorrow morning ... any last minute help?

Welcome to call if you're bored -- 783-5554, or just reply to the list.

Thanks!
