Jacques Lob
Jacques Lob (19 August 1932 – 30 June 1990) was a French comic book creator, known for several Franco-Belgian comics creations, but most famously Superdupont.
Biography
Jacques Lob began his career as an illustrator of humorous cartoons that were published in various magazines, until he was advised to focus on his writing by Jean-Michel Charlier. Working for magazines like Pilote, Spirou, and Record in the early 60s, he wrote material for artists such as Jean-Claude Mézières, Pierre Guilmard, Jo-El Azara and eventually Jijé providing material for Jerry Spring.
Upon meeting Georges Pichard, the two began a partnership that would span several works and a few genres. Initially they produced Ténébrax in 1964, for the short-lived magazine Chouchou, which continued its serialisation in the Italian magazine Linus. For Pilote, they produced the family-friendly superhero parody, Submerman. The following series, serialised in V Magazine in 1968, Blanche Épiphanie was of a different character however, and its erotic qualities caused mixed public reaction. In this genre, they also produced Ulysse for Charlie Mensuel in 1969.
Lob (tennis)
A lob in tennis (also called Great Horse, in italian Cavallone) is hitting the ball high and deep into the opponent's court. It can be used as an offensive or defensive weapon depending on the situation.
History
The lob was introduced by the second Wimbledon champion Frank Hadow in his defeat of Spencer Gore. For this reason Hadow was known as the "loftiest champion".
A lob is usually hit when an opponent is standing near the net, waiting to volley. The ball should sail over the top of the opponent and into the open court behind him or her. A good offensive lob cannot be reached by the opponent, yet it is low enough and has enough pace so that the opponent can not run back and chase it down. It can win the point outright, although with some risks involved. Topspin greatly enhances the effectiveness of offensive lob but also makes the stroke more difficult. When executing the lob, players usually hit the ball at an angle between 0 degrees (flat) and 45 degrees (diagonal). Some players, such as Andre Agassi, Michael Chang, and Lleyton Hewitt, have developed good offensive lobs.

Recycle Sally
by: LoboI know she's gone again
I saw her walking up the track
God only knows when she will be back
The only thing I know as sure as
Morning starts the day
When she comes home again
This is what they'll all say.
Recycle Sally coming round again
Recycle Sally we all know where you've been
Recycle Sally why can't the fools see
Recycle Sally Recycle Sally Recycle Sally
That you recycle to me.
Now Sally ain't about to start to get settled down
She likes to circulate herself all around town
She might get abused and crushed all out of shape
