    What size table are these measurements?

    It's a 4x8. Or basically an 8' table. The inside dimensions should read on a... 9' - 50"x100" 8' pro - 46"x92" 8' - 44"x88" 7' - 38"x76" 6' - 32"x7 Basically (with the exception of the Pros) every foot lost in a pool table is 6" less width wise. And 12" less length wise. If your 44 and 1/4"...

    US 14.1 Amateur Championship: At Hilton NJ May 30-June 4,2006

    I wish 14.1 cont would catch on here in Atlanta. I have yet to see anyone play straight pool with the exception of me. Which is nothing short of ugly.

    Hardest Hitting Cue

    I have a McDermott that hits like a freight train. Also the "Mark Smith" cue. I guess I have to find a new business becuase that's my name. Someone already beat me to it.

    need some tips on moving my home table

    We can move tables in wholes using special dollys. We jack up one end of the frame then put the dolly under. Then the next side and the dolly. Then we roll it and put it back down. We then do what is essencially a pre-level. Or where we level the frame compared to the slate. If the slate...

    What Pool Player Inspires You?

    I saw him at Cues 2 Thursday. I played him at Cues 2 when they had some sort of raffle. You pay $5 and you can win a cue stick and you also get to play Johnny Archer in a game of 9ball. You get to break. I scratched on the break. I basically paid $5 to do what everyone else did. Watch. It...

    Have you ever been on a Turnpike? Those are privatly owned roads. They are very nice. I'm not stating that roads should be privately operated. But a single oil company can make a gross profit in excess of 30billion with an average profit margin of 8% or so. Yet the government doesn't have...

    That was his retirement package that was originally signed in his innitial contract 12 years ago. He fufilled his contract and now it's time for the company to pay up. What if you worked on the assembly line at a GM plant and they decided to take your retirement package away? You'd be up in...

    That is true. It just seems there is always someone who can prove something wrong about whatever. Even stuff that is suppose to be as solid as E=MC2. I think some of science is hampered by people's personal bias. Some scientist or people in general are so stuck on getting their Hypothesis...

    Magic Show - Semih Sayginer

    I'll take him... To dinner or something because I can't beat him for sure. If I saw him do some of those shots I'd just hand him my money and say "Good day". I wonder what kind of cloth he used? Because that is some fast cloth. It must be a formica top or something :) . That was also a...

    A good example is to look at Mount St. Helens. How many Nuclear Bombs would it take for us to do that much damage to a mountain like that? I'd be suprised if we could. Global Warming may be happening. But some scientists have actually come out and said the emmisions from the vehicles are...

    What does being President or a Government official have to do with petroleum prices? (Sadly with the ignorant Americans/socialist more than it should) I'm tired of people wanting to steal oil from oil companies at gun point. Yes it is at gun point. What people are wanting to happen is the...

    Table Cushions

    The profile is the difference. Different cushions can also have different value. I believe that Olhausen Accufast cushions are the best. You can tell what they are because they are black. I've liked Superspeeds too. I rarely see thoe go bad. It's about the only thing Brunswick still does...

    Pool Players who look like Celebrities.....

    I thought of this yesterday. But Stevie Moore looks almost identical to I believe the actor from "Everybody loves Raymond". I saw him on Jay Leno.

    my 9-ball complaint

    Amen. I'm not a fan of 9ball. I can see why it is good for gambling. You can take people's money faster. But for fun I do not like it. A lot of times if I have to combo a ball into the 9ball and pocket it we'll spot the ball and the shooter gets to keep on shooting. I have wondered about...

    Coming to ATL This Weekend

    The pool hall they are refering too is "The Pool Room 1". It's in Marietta right off of I-75. I got to number 2 in Duluth because it's closer to me and non-smoking. #1 is smoking but no alcohol on Sunday. It's an extremely nice pool hall. Their food is excellent. It is where they held the...

    Straight Pool Tourneys in Atlanta. Are there any?

    I'm getting into 1 pocket and straight pool (14.1). I'm not good at it but I enjoy watching it. I know Cues 2 has I think a 1pocket league on Wednesday. And have viewed some 1p tournaments on Thursdays. I can't seem to find anyone into Straight Pool. Even players better than me will often ask...

    no smoking as of 4-15... ways to get around?

    I can't believe this is still going I'll address some things I came across. About being addicted to Heroine. When I busted my spleen from a bike crash I was in the hospital for 6days. Icu for 4 and regular room for 2. During those times I did not eat once except before I left. I lost I...

    Better put: At this point the Majority of the people have enough knowledge to know that we need to remove this Idiot from the office he currently resides. We should have addressed the oil problem prior to his arrival.

    BAD DOG!!! See Pictures

    That is halarious. You wouldn't believe (Maybe you do) the stuff people bring into us. Shattered slate, cue sticks claiming it is high dollar. (Especially Budweiser cues).

    With some scooters getting 110 mpg, I think Clark has the right idea. -Clark Howard is a smart man. He also is siding with oil companies too. But scooters don't pull trailers or take the kids and their friends to soccer practice. As to the nuclear plant issue, I didn't say they had built any...
