    The talent is evident to see. I've never understood some people's negative comments regarding Filler.

    Pool is a beautiful game played by ugly people

    Watching Joe Rogan hold forth on Earl at the deceased Hollywood Billiards is bitter sweet. Pool is on life support in LA.

    To every poolhall and bar tough guy

    Looks like it was more that a shaft slap, as it appears the cue broke and the dude throws what's left of it on the table.

    My Mea Culpa

    Really great copy Jay. Very interesting history. I am always amazed how much you know about the history of the game. If there is a lesson in this cautionary tale, it's that; pool players would piss on paradise.

    Deep Knowledge

    Of course there is deep knowledge and whenever you see a group of top Pinoys in a pool room they are discussing the game and the various strategies and tactics.

    Layered tips - what am I missing - HELP

    I've used Tiger tips forever and all I do is put chalk on them. They last for a long time and don't mushroom. I currently have a Sniper on my playing cue shaft. Tiger is local for folks in Los Angeles and I've been through their factory and they make quality products.

    I have had no problem wearing a mask when I go out. Even with masks the virus marches on. California attended to all the lockdowns and mask wearing and it has not been spared by any means. There are no panaceas. The killer is crowded rooms. I don't believe all the bikers are gonna go maskless.

    Danny Petralba RIP

    I think that was before my time. I played Ron several times when he had to use a oxygen machine. I didn't start playing pool until the early 90s.

    South West consistency

    I think they are very consistent. That being said different wood combinations are gonna hit a little differently. For example, a gaboon ebony forearm does not hit like Pauferro.

    I am not a doctor but a vaccine is not really the same thing as a medicine.

    Danny Petralba RIP

    The sad part is the action died at SOHB. The last time I ran into Danny was in Sherman Oaks and he gave me a healthy spot in One Pocket and I beat him and he was a total gentlemen. If memory serves he smoked a lot. Pool can be a cruel mistress. I always liked Danny, he had a very sunny...

    You don't want to get into politics and then engage in hysteria? Simple common sense tells us that a company that produced a vaccine that killed 20% of its users would be sued to eternity. Jay my hat is off to you regarding the history of pool players but these comments are foolish.
