No, I'm not Alice either!
Oh, no, don't you get me started, Alice. Remember when your name was listed to be an attendance for the Glass City Open 2006 and you didn't show? I was there to watch Josh play and I had to run from people calling "Alice, Alice, can I have your autograph?"
Hmm
I owe you.
Sunny - your distant sister in law who married your sister's husband's brother!

When I played in my very first WPBA event back in 1998, someone came up to me with a magazine and asked me to autograph it. I was somewhat bewildered, and replied "Sorry, but I'm not Jeanette Lee." The guy came back with "Of course not! You're Jennifer Chen, right?"
I remember that incident almost more than how my matches went that event. It was pretty funny to me....

P.S. I think people have accidentally called me "Sunny" too when I was still living in the Midwest.

Her husband Marshall was a successful real estate developer and part time anouncer for various products. He had a great sense of humor, and a booming voice. He was often hired to do the announcing at Los Angeles area pool tournaments in the 70's and early 80's.
Marshall passed away in the mid 80's. Lee is still alive I think. She would be in her late 60's to early 70's now. We all know Asian women live forever and still look good.I want one too, but they all seem to be taken.
What? I thought you already got one of your own.

You are right, Jay! Luat was the winner (you've got a memory of an elephant). It really was a great tournament with lots of big names. Yeah, I can't believe that tourny didn't become an annual event. It was huge with local media coverage and all.
Jay, I didn't know then you were the promoter, but thank you, I had a great time there. It was one of my very first "pro" tounament I went to watch and look what you have created!

sunnyday said:Last night I went to a benefit auction to support a cause. A local girl was attacked by a pit bull and needed some support. I volunteered to be an auctioneer model? and maybe make a purchase or two...
At the auction, a lady walked up to me and asked me to autograph her jacket and I simply thought she wanted to remember this event by getting everyone's signature on her jacket. As she turns her back to me to sign, I noticed that no one else has signed her jacket. Something told me to ask, "and why do you want me to sign your jacket?" She replied with a huge grin and said, "my husband watches you on TV all the time and he will never believe that I saw you here!"
I had to tell that lady that I wasn't Jeannette Lee. I think I broke her heart, she thought she had met a celebrity.
Just for the record, I am flattered, but I don't have any similar feature to Jeannette Lee. It just amazes me how most people think "we" all look alike

Several years ago, my mother, who was white, and I, started to watch
the Orange Bowl. All of the skill positions were manned by black
players. Almost all the linemen were white.
My mother looks over at me and very innocently says, " Is it
just me or do all those white guys look alike?'
I cracked up.

She's in the Philipines. That doesn't count.
She is a little doll though. I'd like to find one a little more local, like less than 6,000 miles away.
Oh well, WPC is almost around the corner.

I'll be there like a bear!

All I got to say is that George won the Grand Prize! Beautiful, smart and plays great. What more could a man ask for?

Unfortunately, many people are morons.
I knew a caucasian couple who adopted a chinese baby, and when they came home with her, one of the grandmothers (of the adoptive mother) came up and said, "Oh how cute. Will she be able to speak english when she grows up?"

You mean, Asian women that live here in US, NO because one or both of the two will be a doctor, dentist, lawyer or a highly-paid nurse. LOL. So pool will be out of the question.
