Lot's of that shit going around, it ain't nothing new.

There are a lot of options, all would be better than your existing light. Get something that has an adjustable color range, and is dimmable. Make sure it works off of a remote. All good.

Yes, modern seed treatments prevent the seed from rotting, in cooler soil temperatures. This allows earlier planting dates. The part you can’t quite get, the soil temps are warmer, much earlier. This is just an actual, verified, fact. The soil, at planting depth, warms to a viable temperature...

No, nice try. I have been a farmer my entire life. I’m 67. The change in the weather is dramatic, and undeniable. The advances in seed technology and seed treatments, have taken advantage of the change in the weather, which is dramatic. This technology would have no effect, if the climate hadn’t...

Dude, get real. I live in Minnesota, we plant corn six weeks earlier than we did thirty years ago.

How is your draw shot? Can you deliver the cue accurately? Have you done the Bob Jewett/Dr. Dave test? The one with the striped ball as the cue ball? It can reveal a lot about your stroke. If your friend, the better player, is willing, it might be beneficial to do it with him. Set up the shot...

From your description, it seems the raised shoulder is bringing the cue up to your chin. This would elevate the butt of your cue unnecessarily. Hence the better players advice. Don’t purposefully raise, lower, contort anything. Stance needs to be natural, neutral, comfortable, repeatable. There...

Agreed. The OP was all about how to not be that guy. I thought he was right on the money. With the absence of pool halls, and pool hall culture, today’s player has to find a different path to improve.

Why?

Percentage of breaks with a ball made? Percentage of good spreads after the break? How does it compare to the GC?

I’m going to need a bigger basement. Fitting all those side by side tables is going to be tough.

Accept for a few rare situations, it has always taken a minimum of approximately seven years. Too many people here are lazy about the facts, can’t be bothered with the actual truth, and can’t remember their education. We all had this in junior high school. As far as the “appreciate the liberties...

Dude, eight ball is a thing! It can be a PITA, it can also be a lot of fun. It is just a different type of challenge. The greatest player the USA has ever seen, calls it his favorite game!

The latches on that case line up perfectly with the scratches. If the rivet heads, have worn through the red felt, that's where the scratches came from. Nobody that cared would ship a cue in that case. Not without wrapping the cue in some old table cloth, bed sheet, some thing. You could have...
