Currying Favor?

"Titan in my country you would be a Brahman" in the tennis world exclaimed a befuddled Sanjay Tomato at the conclusion of his three set defeat at the hands of the TennisTitan this evening. Indeed the 'braggadocios blowhard' had agreed to an 8 PM match with the 'Man from Madras' India. Titan was afraid he bit off more than he could chew against the well- educated, athletic 29 year old emigrant who plies his trade in Austin's silicon valley. But it was the 'bloated behemoth' who imparted an advanced education in court guile and baseline control against 'Typhoon Tomato' in the crisp fall air at the South Austin Tennis Center. The 'pedantic prevaricator' only wishes his serve was 'Untouchable' to have made this a 'perfect storm.' The 'immobile minotaur' rolled to a (6-0, 6-1, 6-2) sweep. TT had it all working under the lights, quickly taking control of the points with groundies to both the forehand and backhand sides as he was never threatened by the man from the subcontinent. As the combatants met at net for the obligatory pictures (to be posted this weekend upon return to NY) TT explained the 'egomaniacal egotist's' blog, 'Typhoon Tomato' quipped, "Do not caste stones at me in your inane write up of this our first meeting. I will be travelling to New York in 2009. My game will continue to improve. Remember there is always a better second course in Indian cuisine! And are you not aware that in Texas Brahman is a type of cattle. And you should know the apostle Thomas was martyred in Madras"
