Whew Thursday already. Slightest sleet coming down outside so will have to remain inside. Oh well.
Still ruminating, well not much over Tuesday night defeat. I don't like to lose but can live with it. Even enjoy a good display put on by my opponent. Oh well.

Sunday funday sermon. 03.17.24
Here com

es the sun.

 

[gregcantrall]

Gotta love it when life hits a riff.
Cold but warming sun to burn off the frost left behind by the passing thunderstorm.
Right opens with a cold start Maximum!

Well the laid cue shows that it was a Simple Crotch Shot.
Now to find 2 to the dirt stripe 14 Way up table. As soon as the sun warms the exposed finger tips.

 

[gregcantrall]

Right definitely on a riff. Setting the cue for the picture at a walk. Had to get back to this.

Warming the fingers. Lefty found the line and scored a 4.

 

[gregcantrall]

Emulating Willie Hoppe was the swing shot o the day. Yields another (discussing? According to Lefty) Disgusting Maximum. He so Lucky.

Now for the Buck Fever Shot to Lefty. 3 rails to the purple stripe on the King pad. Hmmmmm. Would be a HUGE .

 

[gregcantrall]

The nearest miss of the brown yielded this. ^
So the shots available. So Lefty feels good about The Effort and wishes Right well. The set man.

 

[gregcantrall]

Wow Wednesday already 3.20.24.
Pin point accuracy was the commentary as Ronnie moves forward in the World Open day 3 with Pin Point exhibition. I came in late and missed a Left handed screw back to perfection shot that got The Salute at the wrap up as Ronnie moves on into the World's record atmosphere. I just remembered why I just leave it running at $5 a month.

 

[gregcantrall]

The comedy error.

Lefty erne a Trophy that's damaged. A recreation of a fouled crotch shot that yielded perfect finish of whitey. Included the slightest of touch to the balls without disturbance. Rats! Oh well Right serving 1-2.

 

[gregcantrall]

The more I practice the luckier I get.
Yesterday Right opened with a Maximum first stroke. No trophy. Lefty does the same this morning and gets a Trophy picture. Go Figure?

The cue is laid on the line for 2 rails to the orange 5. Right did get the balance of the cue quickly...consolation.shrug

 

[gregcantrall]

Definitely therapy time with the second station shot. Full physical for breakfast snap crackle pop. While I enjoy the mental of speed and spin and vector. Right lays in 3 consecutive 4s to take the lead. Lefty returns a 3 finally to reclaim at 13-12. Oh what fun.

 

[gregcantrall]

Had to cheat the cue balance. Lower back said, "that's enough ". The 3 rails to the dirt color king ball is there and should be good for therapy.

The lesson was available with the Matchroom live.
Judd vs Ding was a good show.

Monday03.25.24
The Routine :
If you can't do what you love, learn to love what you do.
My Routine is directed at the one hour physical therapy. The position required at station 1 is so conducive to my physical recovery.

The Lance a lot position is pushing Lefties physical ability. Still in recovery. The Maximum is becoming more frequent as collateral.

 

[gregcantrall]

Imagine riding a horse at full gallop and delivering the Lance tip to the target. Makes this challenge seem simple. Wink

 

[gregcantrall]

The Balance test.

Right feeling the pressure of the 10 second counter on the camera........couldn't quite get it up. at least Gramps didn't fall over.

Lefty says, "don't worry I ain't scared of no stinking camera!" Would need the ball at the rail to imitate Rich Geiler's trick kick shot. 3 rails to the corner if I remember right.
So Lefty gets the bonus points.....on to the simple 1.

 

[gregcantrall]

Don't forget the squats, Squat Wad Do Jazz is a favorite slur.

 

[gregcantrall]

He can only dribble with his Right hand.

A big disadvantage in combat or better still.

On the fields of friendly strife.

 

[gregcantrall]

The stick and Balls picture Lefty earns with his opening lag . Only 4 points but he's proud of his 4.

 

[gregcantrall]

Lefty does it again so we call it a win and look for 2 rails to the 8 ball.
0 service 8.
