You: Cute family.
Me: Sultry Surface spokeswoman.
My date was a disaster, and now I'm all alone for the weekend, let me teach you how to pair your phones with the table over Bluetooth, and then we can all go get ice cream together!

Posted by Mayank in BLOGGER, BLOGROLL, CULTURE, INTERNET

This is why a serious assailant like Novak Djokovic is also called the “joker” (no,not the Dark Knight one) of the tennis.

See how well he imitates some of the best in todays tennis, Roger Federer, Andy Roddick,rafael Nadal,Maria Sharapova.

Absolutely hillarious.
