too much info jay!
Although I heard about that one, I missed it. Anyone got URLs for that one? (Although I'm sure that if it were REALLY bad [read: entertainment value = good!], the mods removed it promptly.)

my thought on this is
Michael jackson wore a glove
Michael jackson wore a glove
still have enough to part....that's about it!!!
I love the topic of gloves, always reminds me of this quote:
"You know, I've tried all sorts of moisturizers. I even went fragrance free for a whole year. Now my sister, she uses some kind of uh... uh... uh... uh... aloe vera with a little sunscreen in it, and ideally, we should all wear gloves when going to bed, but I found out that that creates a kind of an interference with my... social agenda, you know what I mean"
The stolen cog thread was crazy, I used to bump it every so often....hell, maybe I'll go bump it again.....a liar isn't much better than a thief in my book, they are of the same family....

The Glove, just the word reminds me of Gene Cattrone 
.
I'm sure they have come a Long way since my first tryin em. I'd almost rather consider having a glove on my grip hand for consistency during playing conditon swings, especially in humid climates. When you get into the final 8 in a pro event and crowds increase the room air changes and the Glove may definitely be and advantage.
It's so personal, I've found being without the glove keeps my hand cooler, if the table is dirtly I am more quickly aware because of dirt transfer to my skin and the play conditions. The glove makes the shaft seem fatter, which is not a bad thing. If humidity changes, I'm able feel that aspect of play more quickly w/o a glove. The oils of my hand constantly condition the cue shaft, and skin may wear the shaft less in time than the Glove. Do I need different colors for different outfits...........not going there.
Jam, any comments on colors............

I have a nice Sir Joseph in my case, and that's where it stays. Except once, playing in a tourney last summer - brutal hot and humid day and their ac condenser froze so they had to shut down the system to let it thaw. People were melting like the bad witch from Oz. I was real happy I had it in my case that day.
Other than a situation like the one above, I also prefer gloveless but as Lee Hayes said, we might as well be discussing which side to part our hair.
IMO, there is an aspect to wearing a glove that strikes people (not those wearing the glove) as odd, that you take your game so seriously to wear one, that if you aren't playing around pro speed as a result of wearing it then you're a pool nerd.
Of course, I still go in places where they look down on you for using a bridge ("granny stick" "crutch") or if you play safe (a real man only plays full-throttle offense). A gloved man would have no chance at these joints.
As for monumentally strange threads, gotta give props to the Viffer the Stiffer vs. Scott Frost, Where's the $50k thread.
It, too, had lots of twists and turns; ball wetting, respect, disrespect, Dippy said, Billy I said, The Freezer said, didn't post, shoulda posted, gifted car, stolen car, where's the car title?, was the debt settled outside the hotel?, can we get video from the hotel that will prove it?, take girlfriend to south France, beat girlfriend up, sexing with girlfriend's friend, lawyers, cops, and let's see if giant Samoans can turn Dippy upside down and shake fifty large from his pockets.
Yep, that one had a lot to offer. :thumbup:

Funny - everyone's talking about gloves and the thread is asking about craziest threads of all time. Very confusing.
