Modern Day Begging

Blue hog you are just a island man. There is no one else there with you and the tides are turning. It mist be lonely there but maybe a volley ball washes ashore and you can become best friends with "mister Wilson".

Go ahead and consider me "with him". I can't imagine a scenario where I'd come on here and ask strangers for money so I could play pool.
 
That would be cool. We could make a net out of palm fronds and play volleyball all day long.

This guy is a serious bone head. He started a thread asking for a discount on stack leather wraps.

People buy the stack wraps from 3 different sources. Why would anyone buy a supply of wraps and then discount one or two like he asked for. They are actually quite pricey.

Then, as par usual, he gives the whiny story about being a poor broke student and needs to live and buy books.

He wants to be a student and for us to support his hobby.

But then again, he is from Romania so it is kind of inbred in them to be beggars.
 
So attending college is a hobby for you? Makes sense.

The stack leather wrap thread was started because I was curious how it worked and I wanted to see if some one would sell me some cheaper if they did not need it. Fair question. It was not demanded or anything.

That was also the time when a guy tried to sell me some stack for 35$ for just a cue.

But unlike your manners I politely declined and told him where I can get it cheaper. Maybe the guy did not know that atlas sells it for around 15$ a cue maybe he did.

Inbred, braggers, you probably have no clue where Romania even is. It's culture and its people.

Maybe in the insurmountable amount of free time you have at your "job" you could take a couple of minutes and educate yourself on the matter.

There you go I will prelude with the Dark Ages because it seems that is where you are located currently with your education. From here on out just do your own research. Use the search button like you advise me so many times

Enjoy the culture.


Between 271 and 275, the Roman army and administration left Dacia, which was invaded afterwards by the Goths.[16] The Goths mixed with the local people until the 4th century, when a nomadic people, the Huns, arrived.[17] The Gepids[18][19] and the Avars and their Slavic subjects[20] ruled Transylvania until the 8th century.[18] The Pechenegs,[21] the Cumans[22] and Uzes were also mentioned by historic chronicles on the territory of Romania, until the founding of the Romanian principalities of Wallachia, in the south, by Basarab I around 1310 in the High Middle Ages,[23] and Moldova, in the east, by Dragoş around 1352.[24]

Different migrating peoples lived alongside with the local populations, such as the Gothic Empire (Oium) from 271 until 378, the Hunnish Empire until 435, the Avar Empire and Slavs during the 6th century.
 
I believe he referred to pool as your hobby. "He wants to be a student and for us to support his hobby." You are asking us to support your pool ventures, aren't you?
 
Yea pretty much, I would like to see if any one would be interested to sponsor our club. Since our funding is cut I would feel bad for the club to spend the last dime on me and 2 others to go to nationals.

The idea is if I can manage to raise money and pay for the trip with that money instead of the clubs money next year the club would have a little money instead of zero.

I am graduating so in reality it does not affect me at all but I have been with this club at iu for 6 years now and it has given me many great memories so I want to leave it in a better condition that I found it.

Pool dawg is going to sponsor a tournament so we can raise money, I have a good number or alumni that are willing to maybe donate something.


In return I will screen print all the sponsors name my shirt as well as much lathe labour as I can for free. Just supply the materials or I will sell them to you at cost.

For example a ultra skin tip it's free to install if you have the tip or 2.5$ with my tip.

A ferrule (juma) 3.5$ (that is how much cue components sells the drill and tapped ones.


So you see in the end I am not a beggar, scam artist or bad person. I am trying to do a good dead.

And I will succeed.

Hey, rather than starting a new thread I thought I'd post here.

I'm not a college student but I drive by one almost every day on my way to one of my 4 jobs. I enjoy pool but am having difficulty paying for my 3 league nights. Its pretty hefty. Tables just went from 1.0$ to 1.5$ and my friends and me can't afford beers and pool.

If you can send me a PM with your credit card number and social security number, I'd sure appreciate it.

Also, please only U.S. dollars. I'm afraid that if it was Euro or Canadian, I'd lose money in conversion.

<insert sarcastic tone here>

You want money from IU alumni? Go on their forum and ask for it.

Oh yeah, consider me "with them"

Right on. Thats all we have to do is find one more and we will have a great beach volley ball team.

Nothing else to do on a deserted Isle, unless you run into Ginger or Mary Anne.
 
I like volleyball. Haven't played in about 40 years, but I'm sure muscle memory will make up for that, I think. Wonder how much this guy's grifted out of the gullible crowd?
