I think they do the job of shedding light, Ive yet to seen any that are attractive as far as hving any style, but then again I like antiques.. Im thinking of constructing one with wood, mica , real brass and not fake brass , etc. One that effects the style of the antique atmosphere that a...

its not a new fallacy, it's got roots ! I find this very hard to read, its so blurry, but if you can read it , there is a funny bit that basically says the woman should play pool, its a great pastime, fun to play , but that a woman shouldn't practice so much she gets better than her husband...

LOL ongoing joke with my GF, why you... Want to go to the river ;-)

what I dont get is why there would be any separation in the first place, if a woman puts as much table time in as a man she's usually basically in the same place as far as potting balls.. a man might have extra strength for a hard break , sure yea whatever.. If a player is good, it's a...

facings are used to trim out the ends of the rubber profile near the pockets. there may be some variation table to table. what some do is put thicker pocket facings to narrow pockets, sure you can extend the rubber.. you still may want pocket facings, and depending how your table is built...

Its different for everyone, for us we just decided to go see a lawyer together and act in unison rather than to both hire lawyers o fight one another. the lawyer drew up papers to separate our assets, the rest we just left alone and it's been over 10 years anyway.. If one of us wanted to get...

if you stay married but choose legal separation instead then it might just prevent a repeat occurrence of the same issue, and save on lawyers. I dont know the law there but here after 2 years of separation either can pay a lawyer to do the rest without much chance of it being contested...

20 yer old rubber cushions are likely to be hardened up due to age. why not just replace the rubber and treat yourself to a new cloth?

sounds fun to watch.

M'lady often shoots on one leg, people try to tell her not to, It kind of defies everything about form and stroke.. I had to give up on trying to explain.. she will then get angry and MAKE THE SHOT.. lol I've never heard of "artistic pool" before.

m'lady likes pool , I poke her a little sometimes by referring to her as "the misses" I've learned not to chance that sort of stuff on an empty belly though ;-)

Interesting way to put it ! ;-)

the name Viking was a house brand for Eatons.. Eatons , Sears and Woodwards had house brands. I collect old radios and sometimes come across the Viking name, it was used for a lot of rebranded products sold through Eatons.. That was their house brand or so I believe. I wonder if the...

personally I have no interest in ratings, I'm too old to want to be a recognized champ, My only ambition is to get a little better than I am now. As I grow and get better, it is coming and I get satisfaction from that.. a lot of this discussion is also centered around people play pool, 8 or...

thinking ahead well enough to decide which side of the next ball to be on is a big skill. I can see leaving some easy shots , like a ball in the middle and trying to focus upon the ones that pose more difficulty in completing a runout. in 8 ball anyway.. hitting the object ball just a...

My take is that it could be hard for shooter Hans to accept Spiderwebcomm's help while he is at the same time resorting to name calling in such a childish manor. Cement-head? No-hope? maybe I missed some of the previous discussion.. so be it, just as well ..

even more in snooker but it applies to other games. I'll often find myself wondering if my shot should locate the cue ball in such a way the opponent gets bad shape if I miss or if, chances are good for me, I'll make the shot in which case I'll play to get myself good shape on the next ball. I...

I think most kids, especially boys, go through a phase where they have temper tantrums if they feel they don't get enough attention. if a kid lacs attention bad attention is better than no attention. Those with parents who have good parenting skills get it dealt with, Pronto !.. some grow...

very general statement, but also very true. the pool hall where I grew up never refused anyone or asked anyone to leave so long as they didn't create a disturbance. I had best friends that were pregnant mothers with no where to go.. I'd say it's similar where I play now. A lot of pool halls...

alcohol turns adults into children, anytime I see a player acting childish its because he's still on the bottle. The pot smokers might get a bit giddy, forget who's shot it is , things like that but Ive never seen one break their cues or go into the same type of alcohol induced diatribe that...
