    That built in cellar holds over 200 bottles plus a few dozen Magnums. Right now I've got magnums of 8 Years In The Desert along with bottles of it and other Orin Swift wines. When I'm in Europe I buy Sassicaia and good French wines to bring back. For normal consumption I've got Decoy...

    Can I see your pool table lights?

    My Billiard Room/Wine Cellar/Man Cave is still a work in progress. First was a new TSR floor, then a Brunswick GC Tournament light with LED bulbs. My Tournament GC4 goes in next month. I took this pic right after my electrician & I got the light mounted.

    Pawn Stars

    They have my book in the shop and every once in a while you can see it on the shelf behind the old man. I have offered to appear as a cue expert on the show if they ever get a good one. I also screen tested to star in a reality show for the History Channel, but it never got off the ground.
