Far out stuff.

Most thoughts I have are pretty far out there. People usually look at me and nod with a look of concern on their face as I make my case for whatever is crossing my mind.

My random, out out off the cuff thought of the day is this: Build a 2 X 20 table that would resemble a shuffle board table with gutter returns, at the end of the table have a 4 inch pocket. You could practice your straight in shots by hitting them at an extreme distance.

I have always found that hitting on a 12 footer helps my aim why not increase the difficulty even more?

I was just thinking about how gripping the cue with just the smallest amount of pressure changes the way you hit the cue ball and the accuracy of the hit on the object ball.

If my hand could not close beyond a certain amount; basically the initial comfortable hold that you have on a cue when you first pick it up, I think that I might never miss a ball. Yeah, I thought you'd think that was far out.

Have you got one?

Joey,
You know that kinda sounds like all that stuff Earl puts in his shooting glove? Yeah thats far out but Earl hits em pretty good so maybe thats really not so far out there after all. Now if we consider the weights far out maybe now we know what far out there truly is.

Pocketing a hundred yard shot aint sheaat. Pocket the ball and draw the cue ball back and scratch in the opposite corner. Now that's Earl strong right there. :cool:

That one was actually very funny, made me laugh. However- Tramp - there are so many people on here already who are desperate to come up with the next funny one-liner instead of actually contributing with something valuable.

What are you saying, pooladdict, that I don't take this stuff seriously? Then why the hell did I spend five hours yesterday, hobbling around on a bum knee, playing One Pocket? Does everything have to be pool related on this forum before the world is in order for you?
I happen to have posted many, and I mean many, serious pool related subjects. If you don't believe it then go back and check.
I also happen to believe that sometimes a person came become too involved with what they do to the exclusion of almost everything else and that a humorus reminder may be just what the doctor ordered to level the field.
Look around you. This planet and all that is happening on it is far bigger than what you may do with a stick and fifteen balls.

Well, I was actually referring to the revenge of the gaseous nature (you know, the "beans being a staple" thing). But ok, if the Mexican cooking used a particular type of oil, yeah, I can relate... :eek:

I was referring to copious amounts of Capsicum intake or hot chili that the Chicanos love....don't let them see you sweat though.:thumbup:
 
ok here's one

While stuck in Atlanta's wonderful traffic the other day I got to thinking could God of designed the human hand any better to play pool or do anything else skill related. Kept comming up with a big fat NO .
Keep in mind that back in my wild youth I once had a LSD induced three hour discussion with a certified genious on why round is ....round.
 
It depends on the defininition of "is".

I would have to say that the discussion on why round is.... round fits the description of Far out Stuff.
