I`ve got deep pockets, but I also have short arms.
Shucks!

Life just isn't fair!
Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and get these crazy ideas. It just might work! I only have to find a few sponsors with deep pockets.
pretty much all ur crew's been able to do for the last 30 years is bring pool right into the gutter.
If you don't have a sense of humor I feel sorry for you. :frown:
I believe I have a sense of humor. I just believe this thread is funny in the way that making fun of a kid trying to read and is having difficulty is funny. I usually just peruse while at school, otherwise I'd be out playing pool. Anyways I commented on this thread as I see it as a trend of Bonus ball bashing... whatever. I'll be off your lawn soon enough.
is beerman your bookeeper??

Mama always said..
If you don't have anything nice to say, turn it into a joke.
Seriously, though.. take a tissue, because you're getting all emotional up in here. I wouldn't make fun of a kid trying to read, that's just mean.. I'd make fun of his dad.
I can't lift the chalk....wadayadoif its raining?

No, you're being anal. If you're going to red rep me for making a joke and not having my panties in a bunch, you can go pound sand.
When I look at the topic and I see the poster’s name, it makes me wince.
Because of my involvement in this game for 45 years as a player, proprietor, and tournament promoter, I am careful with my words. My words carry more weight than the average player. The world is always changing and those younger than I see things from a different angle. They like things that I don’t. I don’t always trust my judgment. I would much rather watch and see how people respond and react to new ideas and products. I would not want to say anything that would prejudice or influence their experience.
For those with a following, let's not mock and stifle innovation and investment. We don't need to be supportive either. Just stay out of the way.

Paul as you know, this forum is just like being in the room, with all its diversity....you know as well as anyone there are those you are nice too, those you like, those you help, those you dislike w/o letting em know and those who you won't let walk in your door, and once in awhile if your lucky a lifelong friend will appear. Pool rooms show lifes diversity in a small confined area, you can learn allot by just watching and being quiet, the loud ones just make the others seem that much better.
Hahaha, maybe in your world they do Paulie. Which is pretty small compared to Jay's world.
Can't believe it tho, Red Reps getting thrown around in a tongue in cheek thread.
PT, I have the mallet contract wrapped up and you're trying to undercut me by 2 and change.
Do I has to send Jweedo and Nunzio down East for a chat?
Lake Ontario is pretty big and I'm sure there are some hungry fishies in it.
Also, Unca Vinnie has shares in a concrete company.
No, on second thought, I will get Alex to break your break cue.

I guess I need to apologize for having a sense of humor. I thought the other threads were way too serious. I think even the Bonus Ball guys got a laugh out of this thread. If you can't poke fun at yourself, then your life will be miserable. I've been the butt of many jokes, most notably my tendency to fall asleep at the end of a tournament (after 5-7 days of little sleep). Somehow when I nod out my picture ends up online. No biggie, I can take a joke too.
To me the unresolved issues from the U.S. Open are far more serious, with far greater consequences for professional pool in the USA. That situation troubles me a lot more than what happens with Bonus Ball. For the record, I wish Larry and Barry success in their new venture (and they know that), and I will be the first to congratulate them if it flies. I know they have a difficult task ahead of them and many obstacles to overcome. I hope it doesn't get too frustrating for them and they throw in the towel. Now back to Funny Ball!

Yes, back to Funny Ball. Shipment of mallets might be delayed by a week or so as I have to dig the 2 x 4s out of the snow bank first.
I got some good toilette plungers today for handles. The rubber pieces can be used for various other things like party hats, snack trays, etc.

What is the problem, Terry?
You don't see Schon putting out a contract on Cuetec, do you?
My customers are the guys that can't afford your customs anyway.
...and your threat might be a bluff...you can't even spell Guido.
..and Alex already broke my BK first edition..:angry:
94 pounds, but he hits like a lumberjack.
But if Vinnie calls me, I'll probably 'croak eh?'.....:help::thud:
