"Conversation. What is it? A Mystery! It's the art of never seeming bored, of touching everything with interest, of pleasing with trifles, of being fascinating with nothing at all. How do we define this lively darting about with words, of hitting them back and forth, this sort of brief smile of ideas which should be conversation?" ~ Guy de Maupassant ~

Cell Phone on Centre Court at Wimbledon

I watched the ladies singles finals at Wimbledon earlier this evening, and noticed something interesting, apart from the match (great to see some fantastic strokes from the 17 year old). Right after Maria Sharapova won her match, and almost into the presentation ceremony, she brought a mobile phone onto Centre Court and tried calling her mother.  That she did not get a signal is a different matter.

The commentators said this was a first at Wimbledon !

Youth breaking tradition - armed with a cell phone ?
