From Mr. Federal to Mr. Djokovic, and from US to EU ( James, Taiwan)
Hi there,
Today is Sunday.
I have not read any entry yet today till Anita posted at 14:23. And, yesterday only has 1 entry which was posted by Ana. It’s so quiet here. Sometimes, quiet is good that it stands for peace; sometimes, quiet means dead end.
My niece told me:” Let me make a kuso hair style and facial gesture to cheer everybody up.” I said:” Sure.” Now, allow me to present this kuso Photo which was performed by Judy (Yu-Han Lee) as the following. Let me say a word in advance, please blame Judy instead of me if you are not cheered up after seeing this photo.
I have watched 2008 AO (Australian Open) Tennis this fortnight, it is over now. And the Men’s Singles’ champion is from Serbia whose name is Novak Djokovic.
U.S. tennis players always play a very important role in the past, the great players like Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick, Lindsay Davenport, Venus Williams, Serena Williams were the spotlight all the time, just like the economic and military power of U.S. Nowadays, in 2008 AO Tennis, they are all gone and replace by Novak Djokovic(Serbia), Jo-Wilfried Tsonga(France), Roger Federer(Switzerland), Maria Sharapowa(Russia), Ana Ivanovic(Serbia) who are all from Europe.
It’s the same situation with the tide of economics. U.S. does not have the strong power of economics anymore. E.U. got more powerful than ever.
+++ Shoe is on the other foot. +++
It’s just my feeling of today after watching 2008 AO Tennis of fortnight.
See you, and have a nice day.

PS: Shoe is on the other foot= the situation is now the opposite of what it was before.
