Outside of setting up a new hire today by the name of McCue, I just went out and bought a new Corsair gaming keyboard.

The software that comes with it, yep.. called CUE. Really now. Is someone from the For Sale section trying to implant a suggestion in my head to make me want to buy a new cue? Two "cue" names popping up in my day within a few hours of each other.

The CUE2 open beta is here and brings with it a gigantic overhaul of the Corsair Utility Engine

On a side note, if anyone wants a pretty quiet and smooth typing keyboard, the Corsair keyboard with the MX Silent switches is pretty good and has a very fast response. It feels like I am more floating over the keys rather than typing.

I bought a $900 Pechauer off Craig's List and only paid $200. The guy that bought it didn't want to ding it up, so he kept it just to look at. He reached a point where he needed money fast and was willing to take $200. It plays just beautiful and is a sharp looking cue.

See, this kind of thing kills me. Same with people that buy cues for "the investment baby, the investment".... whatever, cues... well, okay most of them were made and intended for the owner to PLAY them. I may be the outlaying grassy knoll fringe economist here, but the joy you get from playing a truly great cue must be worth whatever devaluation occurs.

If I have a Balabushka that my uncle Frank bought in 1968 that he played with once and promptly put in his closet next to his Olds Trumpet that he willed to me. I would be looking at a cue worth several thousand. I would certainly keep it, and yes it would be a great thing to call an investment. Bu tI would play the holy hell out of it if it hit well. If it hit like a pile of crap, I'd sell it immediately to the first nut hugging cue humador vault owning nitt with more money than brains and get me some Ferrari money.

There is a Predator with a sports grip and two shafts for under $300 near me, even though I don't like Predators I am sure I can find someone that does and make a $100 reselling it.
 
I found a Q in my scrabble set...but it didn't handle english very well.
