Hey Mike (and everyone in AzB land):
I only jumped in and read the first 5 and the last 5 posts and I am utterly amazed.
Were the middle 390 posts similarly telling the op he was chalking incorrectly?
Is the AzB counter broken or did this thread really get over 11,000 views.
Watch out DesMoine Pool Scene! LOL!!!
Best,

There are worse things to do than read the whole thread.
You'll find wisdom,wit ,woofing and offers for action.
And in the end,tolerance and understanding (somewhat)
You could purchase a popular novel and not do any better.
And in memory of me two Irish grandmothers i feel compelled
to write a limerick to commemorate this thread.
ahem
Owed to Blue Ferrule Wong
There once was a 'playa' named Ace
Who said "Get outta my face
I'm chalking all right
It's just,the ferrule's not white
But I'm leading 9-2 in the race"
pt < who thinks the potato famine may have affected his IQ

Yeah, but wasn't that because he got all red-repped? That's been fixed now, he needs to be back here entertaining us!
Maybe not, but like the old lady who pissed in the sea, once said. "Every little bit helps." :wink:
Yeah, those are big shoes for me to fill. lol. Like trying to be Steve Carrell's replacement on The Office.
Sadly, without Ace this thread has no chance. It's yesterday's news what with the the new hot topic catching all the headlines over in those other two threads. :grin-square:

Brian, you have to go back and read it all. You just have to. Come on, you know you want to. It really is entertaining. Grab some popcorn and a 6 pack of your favorite frosty beverage, and get cracking. You won't be disappointed.
Good be another damn hustle!!
lol I just noticed the thread and didn't know how crazy long it was...lol I read like the first two pages and realized the author was a total douche and moved on.
Sorry,but that's like reading War and Peace and saying...
...It's about Russia
It developes and Ace didn't come out looking so bad.
But if you're thinking of reading it all,pack a lunch

Hello,
I just came across the phrase in the book "Playing off the Rail" by David McCumber.
Chapter XII after the first paragraph it is mention that one "would not bet that water is wet"
Copyright 1996
Some one that has the book can look to verify this. tyvmia.
No biggy just like to help with the history of anything pool related !
Huh, turns out Ace isn't the only one who says it after all. Ya know, considering someone printed it in 1996, when Ace was probably 9.
The phrase is much older than that.
In the middle 60's i'd just had my first dry martini.Someone mentioned
that water was wet and i disagreed.Being in the minority on this subject
I faded all their action.
I really l-lost a l-lot of cashhhhh
And it's been a wong time coming.
This is the first time i saw the thread.Funny as S==t.Btw he didnt post it in ask the cuemaker.:grin-square:
Have you ever come home from a hard day at the poolhall and heard your wife say, "Ring around the ferrule. Ring around the ferrule. Honey, you've got ring around the ferrule."
You've tried scrubbing them out, and that never worked, so why don't you try Wisking them out.
Try new blue Wisk today, and before you know it you won't be hearing anymore, "Ring around the ferrule. Ring around the ferrule."

And got slapped down there as well, especially by one person referencing this thread. Pretty funny.
