Many of us love discussing all things, cues.

I lived in a condo down the road from Fast Eddie's Fairfax back in the early 2000s. I see alot of the old gang from there on Facebook, and talked to T-Bone on the phone within the last few weeks. A lot of pool memories from there as well. Where does the time go?

This was formerly "Fast Eddies" in Springfield, right? I hung out there many years ago when stationed in DC...Ilir, Kevin Bailey, Buck, Woodbridge Freddy, Clay, and many, many other characters/gamblers. Always action and antics. What a lot of fun!

Supply vs Demand determines pricing for anything. Nothing to get emotional about. If the asking price is incorrect, it won't sell.

Start playing a lot of straight pool AND one pocket. These games will require you to LEARN the cue ball. The more knowledgeable you become about controlling the cue ball, EVERY POOL SKILL will improve. Shot making, position play, banks, and every game.

He already did. I think my answer (above) is probably what happened. It's a cool cue.

I used to talk to Evan all of the time. He told me he would often make unique cues and sell them, at random. He would make up model numbers based on...a whim, to sell them to, usually, a dealer. I suspect this was one of those "unique" cues, without the "unique" notation. Enjoy!

Looks like something unique that Evan made. He used that pin from 93-95, I think (thereabouts). Are you selling it?

Get'em, Dave! You're a 900 Fargo in heart!

They are both in heaven now. They were definitely "upper crust", compared to me, but they were extremely smart, funny, classy, and kind. I'll never forget them.

This brings back fond memories. While in high school I dated a young lady who had a beautiful home in Brentwood, TN with a bonus/game room. I was from the other side of the tracks, for sure (Antioch, TN). I was already a pool player by this time (at least I was good for my age and could beat all...

I was stationed in Richmond for 3 years. Go to Diamond Billiards. All the one pocket you want...and weekend tourneys. Have fun!

Right. I am so fortunate to own my dream JOSS (attached). It just doesn't get any better than this JOSS (to me). TCOM turned both me and my dad on to JOSS CUES back in the 80s. I remember him having all of the JOSS catalogs. I'm not sure why he never bought one. He wasn't much of a collector...

The Color of Money is my favorite movie. I remember watching it with my dad when I was a pool playing kid. I remember him buying it when it came out on VHS. I have probably watched this movie 1000 times. Who didn't love it when the best player in town (Moselle), who Vincent had been told to...

I have some really cool, original DPK flyers and postcard(s).
