I have not been posting much lately due to health issues. My doctor here has me on an ongoing course of treatments that will last a couple of months.

It all started about a month ago where i was getting weaker and weaker every day. First (my doctor is a young woman) gave me a series of tests and i had severe anemia. It was affecting my kidneys, liver and bladder.

Some of the procedures are very uncomfortable but if i ever want to play pool again i need to do this. My health comes first.

I was reluctant to do this but im reaching out to billiards family for emotional support. Thanks for reading this.

Hi Jay, I’m so glad they figured out the problem with a good doctor before it got worse and they’re treating you for it!
Never put off getting blood work done.
You are loved and thought of

I was just noticing yesterday that the board was short on "Jay" posts. Hang in there, we need you! A youngster to chase and teach pool and life too. You are going to have to make this just a bump in the road. I watched a youtube video a few days ago. It featured you with your original equipment hair!

Take care my friend. Still a lot of life to live.

Well, Vivian was more like a guy in a LOT of ways.

Quball1 Billiards in Capital Heights, MD. About a mile off the Beltway Exhibit No. 13: https://www.quball1.com/

Been there twice. Great place, I had some good action there the first time but the place was a little dead a month ago. Keith has action if he wants some 1P

I’m staying in Falls Church, so I was looking for something on the west side

Same here. Every single purchase I've experienced on azb has been smooth and easy. There are a lot of good folks here.

I agree with you 100% JRC, but people should vet the seller by looking at feedback, length of time on forum and forum activity to make sure they aren’t dealing with a scammer. The scammers lurk here and victimize people who respond in a thread with words like “I’ll take it.” The scammer then sends the buyer a message pretending to be the seller directing them where to send funds. It’s shockingly sad this continues to happen here but it does.

dumbest question.

You don’t think some promoter might do it?

It’s bad enough some promoters have airbarrelled payouts, and you don’t think this is a possibility?

It's a relatively standard trick/proposition shot. I think we've discussed it before.

I’ll see you and raise you as I once saw a Japanese woman fire ping pong balls out of her… oh never mind

It all depends on your daughter. My pool table (shown in my avatar - GC W/860 cloth) was always available for her and her friends to use when she was that age. I never had an issue. Now at 19 she plays two times a week on league teams (1) BCA and (1) APA and enjoys the game..
