Chalk Habits and A Doozy of an AccuStats

I can’t come up with a single good reason for placing chalk face side down on a pool table rail. Apparently you’ve come
up with good reasons for doing it. I can elaborate why placing the chalk face up makes sense but can’t conjure up any
justification for placing chalk face side down. Perhaps you can enlighten me and other readers how or why it’s good?

Put on a nice shirt. Then lean across chalk face side up and stretch a bit to reach a shot. Now you can tell me and the rest of us why placing the chalk face down can be good!

I bought a gross of Master chalk, seventeen cents a piece back then. I threw a couple of pieces of chalk in every vehicle for emergencies just like carrying a cue ball or two in my main vehicle.

When I had strayed off for a couple hours I would carefully use the top of the chalk to mark my t-shirt down by the belt line. My wife would greet me with a kind smile as she heated my supper, "Where the hell have you been??" Damn, that ain't a smile, she is baring her teeth ready to strike."

I would look at her kinda sad and apologetically, "Girl, I have to admit I have been making mad passionate love to a beautiful blond for hours!"

"Ha, in your dreams! I see those chalk marks on your shirt. You have been down at the pool hall with those other bums!"

"Damn girl, I can't get anything past you!"

That there is why you carry chalk in your vehicle and rub the face side into the shirt so she instantly identifies a chalk mark. If you can't be good, be smart.

Extension

this will fit a cog
keep an open mind
Thanks for the idea but it’s too big to fit in my case so not a real candidate.

What beginner pool tip do you wish you learned sooner?

For me the objective in pool is to continually improve, and that means being open to trying new methods and upgrading my definition of "working".
If you keep changing things, how do you know whether you are better off?
If you don't try new things, how do you know whether you are better off?

Maybe if you put the energy into the original way you were doing things you might have made more improvement.
Maybe if you were open to new things you might have made more improvement.

This is to say that not all new things are better.
Like with anything, you gotta use a little discrimination - you don't have to adopt (or avoid) every new idea.

Audience Sharking (Unintentional, but INSANE?)

Herogliffy. New from me.

aggrandizement via text character aggregates

lol...
Okay it took a little er uh back burner time.
I get it! I Think 😉
Cotgitate on th>s.
Aggregates are a major part of concrete and I have significant shovel time at the cement mixer. Shrug
While aggrandizement triggers a bufoonery flavor. Guess I better look it up. 😉
