Eydie, you are the recipient of my first birthday limerick, for better or worse:
A birthday salute to dear Eydie
Her ripostes a delight, yes indeedy
She's always on time
with a well-worded line
May tomorrow's hangover end speedy
People like you are the backbone of our great game, and, so long as there are Eydie Romano's involved with pool, the future is bright. Jeff.
