Did Billiards Digest finally pull the plug on their internet forum? There used to be a link from their website but no longer. It was pretty much a cesspool but just wondering and if so if members have gravitated to AZB.
 
I followed a bookmarked link into their forums, and it is returning a 404 error. Looks like they just killed them. I used to be the webmaster over there, and I do know that their forums were never a priority for them.

So has Hondo joined our ranks under a different moniker? Who might he be?

Conetip from Downunder has been posting on NPR....
...one of the more interesting posters that tried to talk of other things than politics.

:smile-us-down::smile-us-down:
 
I'm disappointed that they didn't leave them up for the search ability. There is a lot of good information over there, especially from the early pre-AZB days, if you know the terms to search for.

I was watching a John Wayne movie with my Dad, a long time ago.
The Duke was going down main street, heading for a nearby saloon.
I looked at my Dad and said, "That guy walks like he has to shit, don't he?"
Pop gave me such a back-hand across my yapper that I was seeing stars all the next week. :smile:

P.S. If this story isn't true, it ought to be.

I always thought it looked like he was walking into a 50 mph headwind.

p.s. - I was lucky my Dad never heard me "think" it.

Friend/ co worker of mine drove the bus or shuttle in Hollywood at the sets .
He did a really killer impression of JW. He had that walk down pat .

Where his head got there 5 minutes before his feet. :grin:
 
Forums are pretty much old hat at this point... I only hope as they fade that they have a place to house both the good info and the useless crap with a search engine that knows the difference....
 
I tend to agree with you. Most everyone now is doing SpaceBook, and Critter. Especially the younger folks.
Eventually this place will be like a retirement home for many of us. Internet assisted care, as it were.
I can see it now......
"Hey, pt. How you feeling today?"
"Not bad. My bursitis is acting up, and my prostate feels like it's the size of a cantelope, but other than that....."
"Have you heard anything from Cuebuddy?"
"Who?"
"Cuebuddy."
"Whose buddy?"
"No Cuebuddy. Turn up your hearing aide."
"Oh, Cuebuddy. Why didn't you say so. Yes, I did get a PM a while back. Said he took a header over his walker and they thought he might have broken his hip. Turns out he only had a crack in his ass. Aha..ha..ha..(cough) ha...ha... (cough) ha..ha.."
"Careful, old friend. They'll put you back on the oxygen bottle."
"Yeah, I know. Say, what about Measureman, and Joey? How they doin."
"Not good. Measureman had a stroke. Well, just between you and me he never had much of a stroke, but this time he had a real one. The doctors say he's going to be all right, although he may talk with a lisp."
"A what?"
"A lisp"
"A list of what?"
"Never Mind."
"What about Joey."
"Joey's doing good. Those Cajuns are tougher than jailhouse meat. I heard he was out fishing, got dizzy, and fell out of his boat. They said an alligator swam up to him, took one sniff, then threw him right back in."
"Well, pt, I've got to go. My fourth wife is yelling at me. Seems she just now figured out the difference between a five ball and an orange. I'll see you."
"So long, Tramp." :smile:
