That's a sad but great tale, thanks for sharing it. I had a great old Martin that was the first cue I ever sold, of the many I've owned over the years. I was amazed at how much I got for it, although I'm sure now it would bring much more. I'm certain I'll say the same about this Tad one day...

Thanks Martin, it was my main player for about 20 years once I "retired" my Ginacue titlist. It's as solid a hit as any cue I've owned and since the refinish is in truly "pristine" condition with the original linen wrap. Joe

Ummmmm, what 10-ball thingy-mcjigger is tomorrow??

You may be right, I'm a little out of touch with the market, I know there isn't a nicer one but perhaps my sights are a bit high. Thanks for the advice. Joe

I'm gonna sell this old Tad I bought new about 25 years ago. Took some pictures for the auction, may take a few more but thought I'd post them here. It's a super sweet old cue... Joe

Corey in action Corey, The JB looks great! I'm thinkin' maybe you shouldn't have given it to Max until AFTER you played him. You guys had a great hill/hill match and were both breaking well with the new cue! Here's a couple of pics, I wasn't too happy with them but I'll post 'em here for...

I LOVE abalone I LOVE abalone inlays and this cue is a stunning example. Good luck to all parties invloved!! Joe

I have a beautiful Tad "plain jane" that I ordered new from Tad in the early to mid 80's. I will weigh and measure it on Monday but it is approx. 19 1/2 oz. & 58" long. The shafts feel to be between 12.5 & 13 mm but again, I will measure it next week to provide exact specs. The cue was...

I don't remember what shirt I was wearin'...you know how it is when you get older....:) I think I was the only guy with a camera....I've barely been home so no chance to post the pics yet, but I hope to soon. Come say hi next time...:) Joe

Hollywood Billiards Update I just left and Jose Parica and Max Eberle were playing on the final table after Max beat Crown City Corey in a hill/hill battle on the losers side. Max found himself in the losers bracket after he and Jose (both undefeated) met. Max came out like a house on fire...

PornTube I haven't logged on in a cpl of days, and I got it as soon as I logged in, BEFORE looking at this thread so they appear to be unrelated. I didn't even bother to notice who sent it. I feel a little left out that nobody has gotten one from ME, but I guess there's still time....:) Joe

Alcono is 5'11" per this website....maybe he was wearing heels when you played him.....:) I also wonder why I've heard no mention of Alex the Lion in this thread????.....:)

Hahaha...had me laughin' out loud....rep for you!!!

first....... Hey, did they take down the windmill...that was my favorite part of this hole???

Look fast sittin' still......

OK, lets see.....solid bridge with the left hand, heels firmly planted, head steady, level cue....something still doesn't feel right, I'm not sure about these Scott Lee phone lessons!

Chris, Based on his feedback as a seller (appears to be quite a few cues sold) he looks ok to me. I would, as I always do, pay via PayPal with a credit card as your funding source. If their is a problem the dispute process through your credit card company is a joy compared to dealing with...

Cartoon This cartoon was done by one of Ernie's clients many, many years ago...I believe he was an animator for Disney. It's nice when people make this kinda stuff for you. Joe

Well James, many of the machines he designed and built himself, so they can't be ordered at any price. He did tell me a funny story about the machines. He said when he was building the new shop he bought and built (with an old milling machine) many new (to him) pieces of equipment, and as he...
