Were sitting here in the hotel room at the Derby talking about movies before his plays today. JA and I rarely talk about pool, because that his job/business-were friends, not pool buddies.
So the topic of what movies we have seen and not seen came up in our conversation. Would believe the Johnny has never seen the Hustler from beginning to end in one sitting?? He's probably has see the whole movie over the years a few times but not all at once. Thinking about it Its clear to me that he wins more matches because while we(average players) are watching movies about pool, Johnny is playing pool, not wasteing his time watching movies.:wink:
Seriously I was surprised when he said that. He did see Color of $$ end to end, and Pool Hall junkies end to end.
Anyways I just thought that might be interest some people, its not a big thing but I was surprised.
HOUSE is his favorite TV show, I never saw it before, he has seen every episode about 10 times. And now I'm liking it.
I wanted to make a easy going happy post after all the drama and BS from yesterday. So this is my happy post.
One more thing, the TV show "Lie to Me" is great, I turned him on to that show. Its great and I think most pool players/gamblers/students of human moves would love it. I typically dont like new TV shows, Gunsmoke and Columbo have been my choice the past few months. But Lie to Me is real good, its not very realistic but still very entertaining.
best,

PS: I dont post things about JA often and only with his permission. He thought that other pool junkies might be surprised like I was about the Hustler, so we just made this thread. He asked me to say that he appreciates all his fans too, since were making a thread-he wanted me to say so for him. He dosent post here cause he isnt much of a computer guy(another reason he wins more matches because he is playing while we are all typing). On that note were going down stairs and chopping them up.
