Sometimes I let shit slide....sometimes not.

I met my wife at age 21. She told me a guy she knew owed her money. I asked nicely for it. When he didn't pay, I got it from him by repossessing a few items from his house. I went back and I asked him to pay again....he kinda laughed in my face. I knew where he worked and we had a meeting when he got out. He was a local pharmaceutical salesman so when I beat his face into the ground he kept it quiet.

I got a bunch of other times I been tested. Right is right even if it takes doing wrong to get it there.

You told a story about a room owner ripping you and several others off, did nothing about it. In the next post said pool culture is soft

.

Now you tell a story where you made a stupid decision and didn't do time, pay restitution, be held financially liable, gain a violent criminal record, and generally fk up you entire life... not to mention your relationship with your wife is because you got very lucky the guy didn't press charges...over a few bucks.

Pool culture hasn't gone soft, as you say. You just hear about it more now because people make it public. Same stuff has been happening forever.

The only time people handle things like your story is if they are full time criminals, have nothing to lose, are incredibly stupid, or some combination of those things.

Fools errand. I mean, do what you want, but numerous studies into the “quiet eye” indicate you should be focusing on your target. If you’re shooting a pistol or rifle at a target, are you looking at the weapon or your target? Think about it.

Gun not same as pool stick. Pool involves an articulated 3 segment shot system. Stick to ball, ball to ball, ball to wherever the actual target is. These segments are seldom in a straight line.
A gun is a self contained shooting system intended to damage a target, It must be pointed <at> the target.

I ALWAYS sand any tip including kamui clears to INSURE that the bottom is PERFECTLY FLAT! Many tips are NOT and that leads to a tip popping off.

Pretty common sense approach ! Prep work on any cue for any operation can occasionally take more time than doing the actual procedure.

My weapon is the cue, the target is the cueball.
Sighting down the cue is basic.
Striking the cueball accurately is also basic.
Some can strike accurately without looking. It's easier to learn when I watch what's happening at impact.
Practice with a phenolic tip and no chalk. Works for me.

Have you tired calling The Cue Ball in Salem, OR? The room is exclusively Centennials and Anniversaries. They may have a need or may know someone who's looking for a table.

This married fool told my wife before we ever got married to not ever ask me to choose between her and pool.

My buddy and half the wedding party were late for his rehearsal dinner because he was golfing with his groomsmen.

To say that his bride was pissed would be an epic understatement... Until her grandmother told her to settle down, it was her own damn fault. She was the one who decided to marry a golfer.
