Maybe you could play by yourself by putting the table up against the wall, or would that just be too pathetic?
Maybe you should come over and teach me how to play.....

Whoops, I didn't realize there was a page 2 and 59865033 people had already suggested the playing by yourself thing.
It would be difficult for me to teach you since you'd never manage to return one of my wicked left spin serves. Best to get some solo practice in first so you'll at least know what it's like to hit the ball.
Have you ever seen the episode of King of Queens where Arthur takes on Doug as a ping pong student? It's somewhat Karate Kid-ish and very funny.
I love KOQ! I never watched during its original run, but discovered it in syndication. Hilarious. Arthur cracks the heck outta me, and of course Doug is an absolute riot. Haven't seen the ping pong episode though.
Hey, what about setting up the table in the backyard? I mean, store it in the garage or whatever, but keep it out there when the weather's nice. You could practice with the back up, and then have the family over for ping pong night once a week/month! And let me know when you have a party, I need a good excuse to swing by and visit my MIL.

(just kidding; she's sweet.)
And what's this ugly business? I've seen your ROF pic and have declared your cuteness!!
