Hi Bob. I was sorry to see my books "Do It For The Game" and "Just Do It For The Money" dropped off your list. DIFTG was on there for a time. I have a few of those left. I sold out of JDIFTM. They are both available for Kindle. Bob Campbell

Very sad news. You feel a friendship with many of the posters on this site. I enjoyed his postings. I tried to meet him once when I was heading in his direction but he said he really didn't feel well enough to play. Never met the man but I feel a loss of a kindred spirit. So long JohnnyT. I will...

I found my earliest post 6/3/95 under aaboutpool Back in those days "allaboutpool" as a handle was too long. Bob

I was there with my dialup AOL service. Used to be some good postings and discussions before a certain "trick shot world champion" joined and took it down. Bob

Most ridiculous thing I ever heard: Rap= music

Looking for a ball cleaner for my men's club. Not looking for anything new. We only have 2 tables so the balls don't need to be cleaned often. Anyone have an old Bludworth maybe? I know I can make one but I'm not crazy about the scuff marks that sometimes get left on the balls. Anyway, if you...

Love my Callaluca. If you are not familiar with his work it is very solid. Great hitting cue. Best of all, Joe is a standup guy if you ever need repair or adjustment. Bob

So, not that anyone really cares, but here is an update on my play. Been playing every week in a league. Though I am not the top shooter I am 10-3. My ego gets stroked when I play and the younger guys watch and stay quiet. I am considered a position player and not a shotmaker. I swear 10 years...

As a 65+ player I got to say there is no reason if I compete against a 20yo there should be any extra consideration. I do however wish there were more "senior" events. As a final note, there is nothing in the world sweeter (ok, maybe a few things but just making a point) than the look on the...

ROTFLMAO. Camel CIGARETTES dumped pool after 3 years. It was essentially done after 1 year but they had to fulfill contract commitments. Outside of local beer sponsorships there is nothing going on. In fact both Miller and Bud had at one time sponsored on a national level. So, who is going to...

What he said. The funny posts are where posters say, as if no one ever thought of it before, "and you can go out and get sponsors". Uhmmmm... no company is interested in sponsoring pool given its reputation of hustlers, smoking, drinking, fighting etc,, deserved or not.

What he said.

Full 5 DVD set of the 14.1 Straight Pool Championship that was put on by Charlie Williams back in 2006. $39 for the set and I will pay for shipping in US only. DVD 1 Robles vs Engert; Ouschan vs Hopkins; Salvas vs Otterman DVD 2 Schmidt vs Hohmann; Williams vs Hunter DVD 3 Engert vs Immonen...

Well thanks deanoc. I wasn't asking if I could make a living at pool, that would make me an idiot. Or I could be like some passive/aggressive dude that didn't read or grasp what he read. You might try rereading the post. If you have nothing to contribute why don't you find a pool cue to sell...

It's funny, I haven't lost the desire to play. I love playing. I just can't get my brain into these tournaments. I play in the leagues, ring games or just pick up games just fine. I hate being the "some old guy" that a young guy beat. Once upon a time I would chew the leg off of a table if it...

oops ...........

So after many years absence I started to play tournaments again. I keep doing the two step. I lost to guys I would have gladly put the money down and played. Sadly, they not only beat me, but I stunk! I just didn't have "it". I didn't have focus or drive. I was just a guy with a pool cue in his...

Sorry I posted this twice and I don't know how to delete one.

Actually Pat Fleming did in an early match. But Pat is colorblind so he certainly should have been looking at the numbers.

The Elks in Chelmsford, MA has at least one, and I believe two 9' Diamonds. If you can track down Dave Eghdall I believe he has some.
