Reno Added Money At the players meeting for the USPPA Pro-Am this year, Tony Annagoni announced that the added money from the Sands was increasing next year to benefit both the Pro-am and the Open. I don't remember all the details but there was talk of more added money for both events, a...

Food Cliff Bars, Apple Newtons and Water. Jonny B.

Picture? Not sure what you all see... All I see is a cute picture of a puppy. :D Jonny B.

99 Critical Shots 99 Critical Shots is a regular re-read for me! It is always the first book I recommend at the college (where I work) to the kids who show serious interest in improving their game! It is a great transition from "just making balls" to getting them thinking about cue ball...

Bump Bump. Got a silver ringed radial joint OB1 from Shinobi. Transaction was smooth and he is a great person to deal with. Thanks again. Jonny B.

Muppets TOO FUNNY! :D Jonny B.

Fun and Good use of Chat Room Your play-by-play was great, Tom! As for the chat room - once I turned off the annoying sounds people were posting and hit ignore to the few hyperactive "Look At Me" chatter-box folks, it was fantastic. :) Jonny B.

Zip Pull/Luggage Tag I agree with the below quoted posters (PROG8R and Snapshot9). An oval zipper pull or luggage tag thingy would be a winner. I like the idea of green with yellow writing, similar the AZB ad banner. Free advertising for AZB and fun way to ID other AZB'ers. Jonny B.

Impatience For me, one is quick shooting when I get behind in a set. I must be thinking I can win 2 or 3 games with one stroke. :) One of --->many<--- things I need to work on. When I am ahead I play patient and usually do a decent job of closing it out, when I'm behind I get impatient...

Big Sky One Vote for Big Sky Jake. He gets directly to the point AND makes me laugh. :D Funny this thread came up as I just gave him rep for that exact reason! Jonny B.

Reading that suggestion made me smile from the inside out! :) Jonny B.

Mali 1990 very plain, stained BEM Mali, stainless piloted joint, black/white speck linen wrap. Also purpleheart wood/wood joint sneaky of an unknown maker that I keep at work where there are 11 Brunswick 8'ers for $4.00/hr! (Unfortunately all have red cloth and horrible red/pink chalk that...

1 More Another $10.00. Great Idea for a very worthy cause. Jonny B.

I remember in either a B or USPPA tournament, I once hit a ball so thin that my opponent swears I missed it, but from my vantage point staring at it I KNOW 100% that ball wiggled a good 1/256 of an inch! Situations like that are where it is good to have a cache of trust and respect built up...

Interest Interest was generated here! Sadly, interest is accruing on my current debts. :( The curly maple and the Red/Black/Red/Black around the ebony points with the well proportioned ivory diamond and the dashed rings all screams "Perfect!" to my brain. The butt is a great look too, but...

Height Flip Side. Though it -->is<-- nice to comfortably reach long shots on a 9'er, try whacking your skull on a table light a few dozen times when standing up from a long shot and your desires for height may diminish! Worse for me - I am 6' 3" and I have a cast iron sewer pipe in a finished...

Sweeeeeeeet! WOW! Great look with the long and short inlays facing each other. It would be too expensive for me as I would have to buy a new house to fit a pool room and a build a big fancy show case to display it in! :) Stunning cue, good luck on the sale! Jonny B.

DP did fine my me. I bought one of his eBay cues about a year ago to try something different. When the cue came it had a ding in the finish that was through the protective plastic - must have been pre-shipping as the exterior package was undamaged. He refinished it promptly and sent it back...
