    President Doesn't Salute During National Anthem

    During opening ceremonies prior to the Daytona 500 NASCAR race, the president of the United States did NOT even bother to offer a civilian salute. ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL !!! I suggest he attend Citizenship classes.

    Sardo, Yes No Or Whatever

    Actually, the WPBA does NOT use the SARDINE GIZMO !!! When the sponsorship money stopped, its use stopped. That should tell you all you need to know about the contraption.

    Billiards Trivia Question

    Just in case you didn't catch it Jacko, Wally was being sarcastic. It's allowed in life and also on a forum. I doubt any malice was intended by Wally.

    Talisman Pro Medium Tips

    Sorry Skater, but you must be referring to Tony Jones of Talisman Billiards, www.talismanbilliards.com. While I do have Talisman Pro tips for sale, I'm way too small an operation to be offering free-bees along with tips. Troy...~~~ I'm not Tony Jones... :) He's in Thailand

    Talisman Pro Medium Tips

    Tip Pics® are bad for layered tips 'cuz they put tiny pin holes in the top surface which weakens the adheive. You might try a bit of 150 grip sandpaper to lightly scuff the tip with a tapper but without tapping -- just roll the tip across. Troy...~~~ No comment on "free tips to all"... :)

    Talisman Pro Medium Tips

    I don't recall saying that to any one, and certainly not to you !!! However, if you can back up your statement with proof I will stand by it. But you won't like it 'cuz "layered tips wear funny and play poorly". Troy...~~~ As they say, the ball is now in your court.

    Talisman Pro Medium Tips

    I played with the same Soft Talisman Pro for more than 15 months. It never, "wore funny" or "played poorly". I replaced the tip only because it became too hard for my likes. Troy...~~~ What makes you think you deserve a free tip ???

    Where to store/display cues.

    Meueller's had a 12-cue dealer's case a while back that could double as a display case/stand for about $150. Very handy. Troy

    How do you clean your cue(s)

    That's what I use --- a soft cloth moist with lighter fluid. I also might use Simple Green® diluted with 2-parts water to moisten a soft cloth. As others have said, clean up after each session with a soft cloth or paper tower. Troy

    Room Owner Holds a Grudge for 21 Months -- Pathetic

    Thanks for the feedback guys. One, I was simply helping Tony Annigoni with his tournament. Second, in a way I was also helping the Room Owner by trying to make the event a success. As I said, I considered it a possibility that I was still 86'd after nearly 2 years, but didn't really think the...

    Room Owner Holds a Grudge for 21 Months -- Pathetic

    I guess I simply do not understand. Until May '02 (21 months ago) I was employed as Manager of a Pool Room. On Monday following a large tournament (100 players), the owner and I got into a tiff (He wanted to re-hire an employee who had been fired for threatening me with bodily harm) and he...

    Questions: Joe Porper Tools

    I can't speak for any other repair people, but I had a mentor. I worked with him learning and making my share of mistakes. I then invested in a Willard's set-up with numerous accessories. Later I further invested in a lathe. It's now been over 5 years and I have Pool Room accounts and numerous...

    Questions: Joe Porper Tools

    Seems to me you could locate a quality repair person, ship your shaft insured via UPS, and eliminate all that unhappiness. I'd be willing to assist. Troy

    USPPA Customer Input Policy

    With prior approval from Tony, I started to have the players keep their own score to speed thing up a bit. After a bit of grumbling, it worked out well. Yes, I know, the players may "cheat", but no more so than having their buddy keep score. Troy
