STINKIN MS!

Why must I add yet another stupid plug-in this time "Microsoft
Silverlight" to watch the video via Firefox? I tried IE, but its
temporary per session and need to tolerate commercials.

Screw em, I'll pass and will wait for the Youtube version.

I've noticed that pop up for Silver a couple of times and finally downloaded
it. No problems and it works just fine.
BTW ... at somebody's recommendation .... (I think Harry) .... I also
downloaded the GOM player. Nice! I like all the custom settings
available, although I haven't tried them yet. But, it seems to be fast and
glitch free.

Yep, that was my choice. Saw about 15 minutes of Ping Pong.
I used to be the park fieldhouse champ. Jigsaw cut plywood paddles.
No, rubber and no spin. Slam, baby, slam.
My brother-in-law totally destroyed my pride in that later on his
basement table with rubber-clad paddles.
He put that sissy spin on the ball.
Whipped my ass every time.
