Count me a newbie here, but what I'd do is thin the 15 ball with running english and come around three rails down below the 8 ball. Flex

Recently, I bought and Adam AD-2 cue. As you most likely know, it's a full-splice cue, has some nice veneers, and hits solidly. I paid less than $100 delivered for the cue, brand new. Having played with it for a while, I decided to tweak the cue, and retapered the shaft, cut off the ferrule...

Sounds to me she might also want to consider anger management classes, or therapy to help her deal with some issues. I've known people who thought that being irritable and disagreeable were positive traits, and that lying could be good for business. Don't think I'll ever match up with her. Flex

I've read that women also tend to pick up a weapon more often than men.

The woman you're talking about is/was a dangerous woman. Obviously, the response I'm suggesting won't work with that kind of person. Best thing is to avoid the person completely. Discretion is the better part of valor. Flex

Because it's my standard "line" when someone, especially a woman, starts with the filthy mouth stuff. The reaction sometimes is disbelief, sometimes incredible anger. That's why it's important to have a good feel for the situation. If she's dangerous, be sure there is plenty of physical space to...

Be happy you get the chance to play under those conditions, for they can be reproduced in normal poolrooms if the number of players swells. The humidity you speak of is a real bugaboo, yet it is the normal situation in the Philippines, and we can see the players that come out of there can...

While that may be the rule in some areas, it's definitely not the case in the places I play in Chicago. I strongly recommend that that detail be specified in advance of playing. I'll insist the time be split; it's never happened to me that the other player has said no to my stipulation. Flex

Please let us know the name of this establishment, and the city, so I'll know where not to drop by if I'm in the neighborhood. Is there any other pool hall in the vicinity? Flex

Bonnie Plowman - very nice lady

Don't you just love the way some posters blithely say words like "pathetic"? Kinda reminds me of Hillary and Bill, both of whom used that word whenever they wished to really put someone down, especially when they didn't have a good argument to directly respond to someone. Flex

Thanks for letting me know, I didn't realize it was a fakery. In any case, even if he didn't say it, what is being spread around as his resonates with not a small number of my compatriots. Flex

Ask me if I care... Just yesterday, someone sent me an email, the text of which I've copied here: "Subject: Why I Like AUSTRALIA..!!! "DO YOU THINK IF WE ASK HIM, HE'D RUN FOR PRESIDENT OF THE U.S. ? or Prime Minister of Canada ?? "Prime Minister John Howard - Australia "Muslims who want to...
