Designers are weird... "It has plenty of space because crowded kitchens never look warm and inviting." Empty, plain white kitchens look cold and clinical. Are we eating here or getting a colonoscopy?

So make a flyer for the barbershops and create a Facebook page for "kids." I put kids in quotes because 40+ year old people use Facebook a lot too. It takes less than 5 minutes to post your daily specials to facebook and twitter. That's all you need to do to stay fresh in people's minds. If...

You're correct that marketing is important, but snail mail? You're a little behind the times. You need to be on Facebook and Twitter and whateverthehellelse people are addicted to. Then you need to actively update it... as in daily. I "liked" various local small businesses on Facebook and if...

I have family in Ft. Myers and it seems that every time I visit, there is a story about police ineptitude or corruption. Saying that to arrest the shitbag would be irresponsible reeks of some kind of corruption or "old boy network, I'll keep you out of this" bullshit. The only irresponsible...

The link gets lost in all the big, blue letters but here's a video: http://www.nbc-2.com/clip/11793084/n...s-many-curious The cops say it would have been irresponsible to arrest a guy who drove a truck with a BAC 5x the legal limit.

I think it's ugly and when I see different color cloth on rails and slate, I think the owners are either cheap or having money problems that they can't/won't replace all the cloth at the same time.

No kidding. 27 million watched this video game tournament — matching NCAA final audience I work with a kid who just got out of college and he watches video game tournaments on different sites. His response when I told him that I play pool? "That's a cool game... it's not a sport, but it's...

I really did hang up my cues... for the summer anyway. :) My NAPA team ended up in 3rd place for the session. I had a tough match that I was NOT in control of at all. The games I won were because my opponent scratched when I only had a couple balls left. Our NAPA LO is doing a summer singles...

Don't waste your time. Honest people won't copy it anyway and dishonest people will easily get around whatever you try to do to prevent the copying.

My only comment is that you're condemning the entire APA because of one asshole. What if he just said, "I'm better than you and know better." or "I've been playing this game a helluva lot longer than you and know what I'm talking about"? There's really no difference, he thinks he knows more...

This may have been the picture from the other thread I mentioned. In my opinion, it's not legal. If he can't get his bridge hand close enough to the obstructing ball, then he needs to use the bridge as it was intended i.e., the cue is supported by the bridge head. There's nothing wrong with...

I think we're on the same page overall but, to be clear, the OP's scenario (the one I was originally saying was legal but borderline) had the opponent wedging the butt of the cue under a rail and lifting the bridge head up.

You're ignoring the part that says "for shots that are difficult to reach." In hang-the-9's example, the player can clearly reach the shot if he can put his hand on the shaft of the bridge stick and use it (his hand) to form a bridge.

I was not clear about who I was replying to. My reply was actually to the OP. There was a thread about your example -- laying a bridge across a table and resting your bridge hand on it -- and I agree with you that that use is illegal.

I am not a rules expert but I think it's legal. Borderline, but legal:

That's too bad... and who might you be?

If you shoot the same shot over and over with the intent of getting better at it, you're doing a drill. It may not be written down in a book somewhere but there's really no difference; you've just created your own personalized drill that focuses on a weakness in your game.

I'm glad my team is in first place because otherwise, league would be mighty hard to go to. It's really tough to sit in dark bars while looking out the window and beautiful almost-summer evenings. Last night, NAPA lagger's choice, my team won 3-0. I needed 6 in a 6-4 8-ball race. We went...

I think it's stupid to use any app whose purpose is to enable people to find me, but you can find a lot of that information just knowing the person's name. Wasn't there some app (Four Square?) that let people "check in" to businesses? Why don't pool players use that? For that matter, why...
