Todd K and I ponged last Thursday. I won 2-1 (?). The match turned out to be the last of October. Final record was 5 matches to me 3 matches to Todd K. Therefore, the crowned champion of October — “Mr October,” if you will — is I, Todd A.

We played again on Saturday. The first match went 3-0 in my favor. The second was a killer. It ended 3-1 in K’s favor. I barely hung on to win one game.

The competition for Mr November is already fierce: 1-1.
