    Pretty sad to be in your sixties and living in your car.

    I miss the MIZ

    I have the exact same Hall of Fame print of Steve, also signed by him. I also have the Hall of Fame prints of Mosconi, Deacon Crane, and Jimmy Caras, all signed by them. Makes quite a foursome on the wall.

    ***I Just Got Off The Phone With Stevie Wonder!!!***

    Do keep us posted. The suspense is damn near unbearable. p.s. Wonder if the Saints will ever make it to the Super Bowl after 40+ years of futility? That is, before the team leaves for another city. :)

    Cowboy Jimmy Moore

    Well, someone must have done some running out on him, because Cowboy Jimmy never did win a major straight pool tournament. His slip stroke was indeed great.

    Atlanta or Bust!

    Isn't there an older guy there in Atlanta that knows a lot about pool, fast something or other? Might want to meet him and have him take you some places. :)

    Sleeping in your car, a warning

    I think a revolver should be the firearm of choice for most people. Simplicity, less to go wrong, you don't have to remember to rack the slide in an emergency. (unless you already have a round in the chamber of your semi-auto)

    Jr. Harris

    Anybody know whatever became of Jr? Nice fellow and a hell of a pool player. I enjoyed watching him tangle with the late Earl Heisler at the Sports Palace in New Orleans roughly 20 years ago.
