    Thanks, Sharkster. Understanding and vibes going out for you. +++++++ As for pool, well, let's just say that after 6 days away from the table, the damage was done. I can't shoot for poop. Back to practice soon.:embarrassed2:

    Shy but wants to play

    Back from Iowa and the funeral. I am donating my body to science so that student doctors can practice putting in stents, cataract surgery, heart surgery, replacing hips and knees, or whatever they wish to do to me. I want my body used for something good, something educational. Cremate the...

    It is just a game. I find it interesting that it's the one thing I wanted to do above all else. I'm glad I have it.

    Shy but wants to play

    Thanks for the kind thoughts. It really helps. You guys are the bomb. I went, and shot like crap; there was too much garbage sifting through my head. But I think it was the right thing to do. There's no point in sitting home alone staring at the wall. Tonight's games: Game 1: 5...

    Shy but wants to play

    My mom died today during a lung biopsy. I knew she was going because she'd been in chemo for a long time. She and all my relatives are in Iowa. I'll try to get a plane ticket sometime in the next couple of days. Funny, I'm not all flipping out about it.......I'm very calm and think she...

    Shy but wants to play

    Last night we played while it was trying to blizzard outside (it didn't, just snowed and blowed).:wink: Still, I was distracted enough to shoot lousily, and the other team was on their game. Last night's scores: Game 1: Won (I got one on the break, missed; he ran 3, missed; I ran out) Game...

    One line advice snippets

    I think about a few things when I'm shooting that really help my game. "Play the table, not the person." "Chalk then walk." NycRailBird suggested this gem: "Don't shoot in the thinking position and don't think in the shooting position." (suggested by someone else on this board) What...

    This is why Pool is COOL...

    I like hearing the crack of the break....and the endless puzzle of every newly broken rack.:cool: I like being in The Zone....when that bank shot that everyone said wouldn't go....goes in the pocket like it was on rails.:cool: I like travelling, finding new places to play, and keeping a...

    Anyone been in Black Diamond? aka the old McQ's?

    What a wonderful idea! You up for it, RKC? The barbox tables are really fast now......and very blue....everyone was barking about it. I like it better than the green flannel that was on there, no complaints from me. Thanks for coming over to introduce yourself, Easygame. Funny that I...

    Anyone been in Black Diamond? aka the old McQ's?

    I play there every Monday night on a small league. It's going to be really nice when it's done. My only complaint is that the seating arrangements are kinda goofy. Some tables don't have seating near them at all......who wants to walk across the room to shoot pool if you're playing another...
