Was thinking same

It's a war currently raging in my closet. The woman keeps adding more clothing items and the cases are pressed for space.

I knew it was bad when I lost count and had to check my spreadsheet for the official tally.

The German Shorthair that ate a massive pile of sausage my wife made before I could get any ate worse. Wood. Tarps including metal grommets. Attempted a wasp. Don’t know if he swallowed but his swollen face gave it away. We discovered his stomach contents after he ate a big sheet of visqueen. Had to make him throw up with hydrogen peroxide per vet instructions. Reminded me of the scene in Jaws where they autopsy the shark and find beer cans and license plates and such.

I didn’t care if that dog got into chocolate or onions.

weakest field in a wpba event since 2022. the field strength has been slowly declining

This is a bit of a random observation, but it is a sign of the times..

Top international players rarely come to an American-based WPBA event unless piggybacking (closeness in schedule to another American-based event) is in play. For example, in February, the Predator Women's Las Vegas Open was about a week after the WPBA Players event in Ft Lauderhill, Florida, and b) the Predator Women's PBS St Louis event in early April was shortly followed by the WPBA US Open in mid-April. In general, WPBA events that stand alone in the schedule rarely get an elite field. It's something that WPBA event producers might want to pay more attention to as the number of women's events is growing. When the top internationals don't come, WPBA fields can be quite weak.

Men's pool is a little further along in scheduling things in a way that helps to improve field quality. Men's event producers are now bunching events in a way that takes some of the burden off players who are trying to manage their expenses, thereby improving attendance of the top international players.

Lived in a small town for a while where the old Doc liked guns. When he passed there were hundreds. Short of 1000 but the auction for them was crazy. I don’t know the final total of what he had. I heard different numbers but all over 500.

Every guy in town was happy. How can a wife complain if you can say “I don’t even have a hundred yet dear…”

Depends what you like. I like cues but like to hit with them sometimes.. so I’ll probably not get into triple digits. You never know though.

4 1/8" or 4 1/4" for Pro Pocket Size
Anything smaller turns 9-Ball into snooker/pool.

Thanks, jayman. That's very interesting and helpful background about Doug and Ray.

I still have the original dealer card, and the handwritten notation on the back reads “CR-190” and “472/116/750 P.” The shaft itself appears to be marked “116,” and my assembled cue measures 58 inches. Some of the notation may be starting to make sense, but I haven't figured out what “472” or “CR-190” refers to.

Do you happen to know how Doug recorded the specifications of the Schuler cues he brought back from Chicago, or what those numbers might mean?
