A Noir MASTERPIECE! DECEASED MASTERS What a GREAT title and idea for a screenplay, Rib Doner! Don't worry...I'll definitely give you a "Story By" credit, so that the studios have to give you a piece of the back end, which in Hollywood, doesn't mean what it sounds like and is actually a good...

9-Ballin' with the HersheyBar No worries, Chris. Just havin' fun bustin' ya'. I really am only qualified to be RACK BOY with your game. I was actually thinking what an appropriate hustler handle that would be for me... ...RACK BOY... ...putting FEAR INTO THE HEARTS OF STONE COLD PLAYERS...

Right you are Raist! It probably WOULD raise the stakes. Clever twist of fate. And Chris...I can't believe that you and HersheyBar were playing local tonight and I didn't get the call. I coulda' been the neutral RACK BOY. Ah...such are the vagueries of a life right on the edge of...

The Nuts Now THAT cue's THE NUTS!! VERY NIIIIIIIIICCCCEEEEE! Strong, simplistic elegance. Just aching to be played for so long now. You should post it on eBay...just for fun...with no intention of actually selling it. It would so funny. A Cue Blocker. It would take so much wind out of...

A Player's Cue Indeed I agree, Joe. In fact, I hope that whoever buys this cue does play with it. Carefully so, of course. The best hitting cue that I own is a Gus. I think the beauty of these cues is that they are a form of functional art. If you completely take away the function...then...

Tate's Evaluation I think that Chris Tate's evaluation of the cue and documentation is pretty spot on. The cue is a beautiful, simple WIDOW, in great shape, with no veneers, but also no stitch work. Considering that I know of a beautifully veneered and stitch collared Gus that sold recently...

PM Sent Hello. I sent you a PM concerning your Scruggs cues. Thanks much. Cain DeVore

Top Shelf I would just like to take this opportunity to publicly thank the host of this fine thread, for being one of the "Good Guys", a real straight shooter and someone who my opinion raises the level of our experience in this crazy, wonderful world of addicts and enthusiasts, of which I am...

A Saga's End First of all, I want to start out by saying how much I am looking forward to the shocking EXPOSE' on cue ID: GUANTANAMO A Billiard's Story Second...I would like to say that I have been in touch with the seller of the "mystery cue" and I am happy to announce that an end to the...

I was talking about the butt. Hi all. When I said (and I quote myself): "His has only 2 dots in a row, with an offset diamond in the middle. Not 3 dots across like the one that you (Chris Tate) included the photo of." I was talking about the dots in the butt of the "mystery cue", not in the...

Wow! How did I MISS THIS?!! Absolutely. PLEASE PM ME! There is nothing in the world as rewarding as an inter-continental, multi-national, sub-Saharan, trans-Global BLACK OPS KNITTING NEEDLE DROP. Though it may put me, and some highly classified national knitting secrets at risk... I'm in.

And... ...another:

Another photo... Here's another photo from the listing:

Almost... Almost Chris. His has only 2 dots in a row, with an offset diamond in the middle. Not 3 dots across like the one that you included the photo of. The diamond inlay in a round hole was indeed what was bothering all of us about the diamonds. Good catch, whoever first said that the...

Both Hey Jeff. Yeah...you got me...I'm both, in the old tradition of the "auteur" filmmaker. What I was really doing was trying to get some fat cat collector and brain surgeon to recognize my skills and finance my next feature fiilm. It's a little ditty I've been working on for a while...

Knitting I am personally very excited that this thread has taken an ugly turn into the DARK SIDE OF KNITTING! Now THAT"S a world where strange characters creep through the night, trading and selling black-market yarns, speculating on the true maker of a rare wool scarf, and hoping that the one...

Jensen I was really hoping to get a chance to buy that cue. But authentification was a big issue. Speculation on a cue that can stir this much dissection and controversy, and an ultimate lack of certainty on a board with this much knowledge, is a big risk. I would have gladly paid $5,000 for...

Pic for Raist Here ya' go. I'll post more pics in a couple of days. Cain

The Ultimate Collection! Hi Lisa. Thanks very much for throwing out some good wishes and a little luck. Yeah...I hope I get it, too. For many reasons. More now, since this thread. I think it would be a great in a Bizarro World way if I became the penultimate collector of the only two...

Thanks, Chris! Coming from you, Chris...I take that as a real compliment. You too are a true enthusiast! You have not become the Palmer Collector, with such an extraordinary collection, and website, and database, and love for classic and impeccably crafted cues of all makes because it was...
