Yet again. This time I’m in a local Barnes and Noble, perusing the martial arts books (I was looking for a book on Iscrima, but no luck.) Without even glancing at the shelves a nice older British gentleman approaches me and asks if I know where the books on Tennis might be. I mean, I knew where they were, sure. But what is it about me that makes people ask me this stuff? I look like a soccer-mom most days, perhaps thats it, they think that someone as frumpy as I must be a. harmless and b. hold the secrets of the universe at her fingertips?
