in decades of playing and travels i have never heard of anyone who had their joints in any way damaged while in their cases and even when not.

personally in my mind they are a waste of money and time messing with them.

You know, I think you are onto something. I never really felt the need for them, but cues started coming with them and some people said they were a good idea, and some custom ones look good. So I started thinking maybe I should use them. But then I don’t like dealing with them. So they get put in the case to not use them. And some cases come with the jp holder thing to hold the unused joint protectors. I do use them on the rare occasion I am checking a cue on a plane. But if the bag and case is mistreated so badly the cue in the case is going to be damaged, I doubt the jp will save the cue. I may have to start boldly ignoring the use of joint protectors. 🤔

Yep, for some reason it didn't really take off as a desirable pin. For a couple years, Tim Scruggs and Mike Cochran considered it a great pin, but as I recall, the feedback from players wasn't so good. I still like the couple I have.

I conceal carried for approximately 40 years and I carry the same pistol never changed it up. I carried a Walther PPK 380 auto nickel plated, I like the size of it. Because one could tell I was carrying when I carried that weapon. I had a simple philosophy for conceal carry never pull a gun. Never let anyone see the gun unless you're gonna shoot someone. Mid 1990s in a restaurant in Tacoma Washington I was faced with a situation where I had to pull my gun. My wife and I were having dinner when a very large guy came into the restaurant and stabbed the customer three tables down from us, and I clearly saw the whole thing.

I jumped up and immediately told him to stop, at that point, the guy started coming after me. Again I told him to stop twice but he just kept coming, so I double tapped his ass dead center of mass. To make a longer story short, the prosecutor for Tacoma Washington decided after viewing video and witness statements that I was justified in shooting this guy so no charges were pressed against me. Approximately a month later, I went down to the Tacoma police station and picked up my pistol. That's the end of the story. 😎

I love to get that Walther and been eyeing it for a longtime. The only experience I had with shooting another person would be seeing my dad at close range shooting at armed robbers. I saw the discipline on how he discharged his weapon unlike the clearly inexperienced ICE agents. My dad anyway is a former national guard.

He didn't even pause to consider shooting the black after the 15th red. He is a different breed, a genius.

As amazing as a 153 is - then guaranteed he's a bit gutted that it wasn't a 155. It was on.

He talks about his decision making process on that in the first few seconds of the video below although I'm not 100% sure if he was talking about the first or second time he chose pink instead of black. Basically he just says that he decided it was more important to get the record of being the first person to make a break above 147 on TV than it was to risk it all by going for the tougher black to slightly increase the point total. He doesn't seem to be regretting the choice or upset about not getting 155 best I can tell.

A common designation to indicate going into disputed territory in vietnam among other places. I have heard the term used to describe hostile territory in the mideast too. Wasn't an uncommon term in the old westerns I was and am a fan of. "Indian Country" is hostile territory. The designation has been being used from at least the eighteen hundreds to today. This originated in the last century or before and proceeded into this one. All of NO and much of the surrounding area was "Indian Country". I can also say the term started in the last millennium and continues in use in this one.

A chuckle, I was often mistaken for an American Indian and got along great with the peoples of the Southwest for the most part. There is one tribe that is still extremely hostile to anyone but purebloods. They publicly ran all halfbreeds off of the reservation a few decades ago. That reservation was and is "Indian Country". A threat to life and limb to enter it and it isn't marked off in any manner on much of it's perimeter. Enter at your own peril! Trespass and you may find you entered the old west.

How would they determine a pure blood from a half-breed? Are they like the Indian Mafia?
