In a post up above “Wonderlan” mentions Mc Girr’s on Eighth Avenue, and specifically affirms that it was not a dive. It deserves to be more often called to mind. It was gigantic and old school. When I had to catch a bus at the Port Authority back to New Jersey, I would wait it out in McGirr’s rather than the bus terminal. What do you need to say about the atmosphere of a place after you mention that its neighbor was The Greek Merchant Seamen’s Association. I wasn’t there often, but I loved the place. Never had a problem.

I believe the proprietor may have been one of the promoters of the wonderful old straight pool championships played at The Commodore Hotel. If that is true, he deserves some recognition.

I'm having trouble visualizing how a naked girl could get on a pool table. Any photos or videos?

I often recommend that, or yoga, or things like Tai Chi, as well as meditation. The people I work with have extremely little time available, so they need to get the maximal benefit from minimal investment of time.

Anything that can improve discipline of mind and body, as well as coordination.

I teach a number of techniques to break stress and fatigue and regain focus in the moment. They are all based on things I learned in nursing, medicine, psychology, and the martial arts.

Getting in touch with and understanding what your mind and body are doing is critical and primary, then learn to control that. And it's an ongoing dynamic process, it does not end.
