...I'm heading out there this week. Been on the road for a month and haven't gotten a chance to play much. This is the last stop of March Madness for me. (I'm ready for some rest.)

So, like, all the grown-ups are at - like - Valley Forge... So, like - that means we can party! Who wants to play 8 ball with bar rules!!?? Ohmygod, this is sooo cooool! Everybody gets to put their drink on the edge of the table! C'mon guys.. they wont be back until Sunday! :D :D ;)

OK, I don’t get it**. There is this cue stick known as the “Sneaky Pete”... I guess the “sneaky” part is that it “looks" like a bar cue, but it ain’t. Ain’t been for years. The dead giveaway is the “314”* printed on it near the joint. So... Does anyone really get to “sneak” their Pete up...

I go to a few places that have green cloth on the tables, yet they have blue Master chalk. Wouldn't you want to have the same (or close) color chalk to match the cloths color?

I'm looking for the best NJ pools rooms for a possible story on the NJ billiard scene. As an aside I'm going to try and find the best young player in the state. I know about Comet Billiards in Parsippany... nice place, good tables! Where else should I look?

My practice habits are scattershot. Sometimes (at home) I do drills, but most of the time I reach into the pockets, spread balls out on the table and "assign" myself a course of action... Solids or stripes... numerical order... try to make the toughest shot... take the shot I know i'm weak...

I started playing seriously only a few months ago... Cleaned out my basement and made a decent pool room down there. ...Been practicing. Tonight it paid off - I played 8 ball at my local bar and had my first real run... I broke and ran three racks in a row! Woo Hoo!!! Now, I know that...
