Jens asks
I am an aging triathlete and my successes are fading quickly. However, more recently I won my first ever ping-pong tournament. It was a pretty big deal because it was an international tournament (I know that because the Germans participated). I think, I might have some real talent and might be cut out to be a professional "Ponger". Since everybody know that the "Pong-Heads" are way cooler than the triatheletes, should I consider becoming a professional "Ponger"? Your bunnylectual advice would be greatly appreciated as this is a very serious decision for me & my family...


Listen to yourself man: Ping Pong vs. Triathlon? I’m speechless. No, wait, I’m not… the Bunny is never speechless. What are you thinking? First, I just happened to be at that Tournament, and yes there was at least one international player, but I think your competition might have been hitting the carrot juice fairly hard! But not to discredit your Pong Skills let’s look at this in comparison to prove just how much there is nothing to compare!

• As a Ponger what would you wear? A headband? Big clear protective glasses? GEEK-VILLE! Nothing says “I’m sexy baby” like a pair of TUBE SOCKS!

• Ping Pong was invented as an after-dinner amusement for upper-class Victorians in the 1880s. The Ironman was invented by a U.S. Navy Commander as a physical challenge to determine who was the most fit: swimmers, cyclists, or runners. Do you really want to excel in an after-dinner amusement invented by a bunch of Victorian ladies?

• As a Ponger what kind of gear would you be sporting? A nice shiny new PING PONG PADDLE? Are you saying forget the sleek carbon-fiber bike and the fun TRI toys; I’m going for the particle board?

• Last time I checked, Table Tennis players made about as much money as Triathletes: a bazillion dollars per event… oh wait… No they don’t!

• Another bunny told me your love of chocolate is beyond human… I wonder what a Ponger’s waistline looks like?

• What kind of workouts would you brag about? "Boy I just had a tough Ping Pong interval set? Balls were flying!"

In conclusion there just is no comparison stick to Triathlon… Nuff Said…

Ping-Pong instead of Tri??

That's not even worth a comment.
It's so totally wrong.
