Nice narrative, Lou--you really captured the flavor of a good time at the DCC. Good goin in the one-pocket, too. It's been years since I played him straight pool in NYC, but I just don't think that was Paul Sorvino at the tourn. We may be talking about the player who beat me in 1st round...

Thanks for the mention, Jay. Earl made quite an arrival back then, jump shots and all. And Richie's tournaments sure were a lot of fun--can't wait to read Pool Wars.

Obama solves banking crisis? Yo, sweet video. Obama goes cross-corner. Nice! (may have to work a bit on the straight-backs). Hey Freddy--you were dissing him pretty good when I saw you at DCC last year. Does this raise him up a notch? Can all Chicago pols bank?

Jay, Leon Crump, golf hustler extraordinaire, once had a schoolteacher stuck a couple of thou at a par-3 night course. The joint closed, so they moved on to a putt-putt and Leon won another five thou--on air. He went to the guy's bank with him, the guy came up with 500, and nine more checks to...

Oops...I mean "Now I owe you three"--never could tell a story

Jay, the following happened to a golf hustler I know: Guy says to him, I still owe you five hundred, right? He says, right. Guys says, would you take three and we're square? My friend says, sure, pay me. Guy says, I don't have it, but now I owe you two.

Ah the mystique of legendary roadmen...Good stuff Jay, Freddie--as per usual. (Freddie, I admire the ability to go public on past indiscretions. Big nuts, buddy!) Those wanting to read up on Don Willis can find pretty good entries in the following: Hustler Days, by R.A. Dyer, Billiards, by John...

I heard Kevin Trudeau mentioned on National Public Radio (NPR) yesterday, if not actually by name. It was on the Diane Rehm Show, in an interview with Brooks Jackson, co-author of Unspun: Finding Facts in a[I]World of Disinformation. Some two-thirds of the way through the hour, the guest, after...
