Practice what I Preach

Ah, the memories. 1959 U S Plywood put out a 1 sheet paper printed both sides. 🤷‍♂️
The boarder consist of images of Mules (democrats) pulling in a tug a war with the elephant. Neither side could prevail. On the back side they worked together to move the Huge load.
Or something like that . 🤷‍♂️
So the morning workout is alternate shots Left and Right working together to navigate the obstacle course that I call the Chase. 16 shots. Could establish a course record and catalogue progress. 🤷‍♂️

Amazon perimeter style light

I think that I will go with the original Perimeter Light company for my pool table light once I buy a table in my new home. I would hesitate to buy an Amazon offered light- yes it is cheaper- why? why? --sorry but investing thousands in a table and then paying an electrician to do a correct overhead light install- I would hesitate to just grab any light off Amazon just bc it is much less expensive.

Everyone can choose to do whatever they want- not knocking anyone's personal decision - but after living a long time you learn that cheaper is rarely better, sometimes- but not too often-- especially when an install is involved- for the do it yourselfers- do you really want to end up doing it twice; way before it should need to be done again?

IDK- maybe someone here can firmly attest that an amazon perimeter light is the same or better than the Perimeter light that has been tried and true in the billiard world-- one cost $321 and the original Perimeter nine foot is about double that price-- again WHY?
Perimeter light is garbage. It blinds you. I wouldn’t take one for free.

Funny pic/gif thread...

Funny story:
Our microwave stopped working Monday night, put some stuff in there for a minute to heat, and it didn't heat. Of course I did that three more times with the same result. So off to our local appliance store the next morning for a replacement. It's a small, local place, I'm the only car in the lot and the only customer, so the woman owner is helping me. My only requirement was that it had to have a black/stainless finish to match the other stuff in the kitchen. Her only model like that was an LG, of course the most expensive one, and it has this funky safety latch where you have to push a button on the side with your finger, while simultaneously pressing the door open bar with your thumb. She says you can just lock out that safety feature so it works like any other one. I asked if that was something that they were all going to have now, and she says this to me: You see how the world is now. Some idiot somewhere probably put a chipmunk in their microwave, and now we're all going to have to deal with this kind of crap. Made me laugh, and I told her to stop talking and ring me up. And I'll go back there if I need anything else.

Need Jump AND break cue, would prefer to get both in one cue, suggestions?

Thanks for that info ST.
I just won a game on a short, quick up and down shot, with this jumper. There are a number of things I like about this particular jumper, looks and feel and such, but it is so versatile having a three-piece butt that you can adapt to the shaft to get any jumping need taken care of. Predator makes an excellent jump / break cue, that you are paying twice as much for the name as you will with the one I have. It is a great cue, but I think you pay somewhat for the name predator to be stamped on it.

Derby City Newbie (be gentle)

It’s been years since I’ve been on here!
Hello and happy new year AZer’s.

An opportunity has came up for me to knock attending the DCC off my bucket list! I’m super excited but I’m worried I have no clue what I’m doing and will miss something.

I read through the website and it seems I’ve already missed the opportunity to play or even get VIP seating at the tv table. So it looks like I’m stuck with general admission and wandering around.

I don’t need a room as I don’t live too far away now.

Any advice? Insight? Etc is greatly appreciated.

Carl

Alex will be there. Be sure to pick up some wipes at his booth and lets us know how it works out.
