The SVB Caper. Plus … Poolroom Attire ... Revisited!

[StraightPoolIU]

To everyone commenting about post length maybe you aren't familiar with Sunny's other posts. They are always longer form blog style posts that show some writing talent. I hope she keeps it up. If you want another which x is best or apa thread there are tons of those elsewhere. As far as the topic I think Shane would do well representing any sponsor. If big time corporate sponsorship and organization ever comes to pool things would change in a big and fundamental way, and I'm sure some would not be happy.

Don't let the tweeters derail you, sunny.

I'm a bit of a bookworm...I was trying to figure which author you reminded me of....(yeah, I ended a sentence with a preposition..sue me)

Then I realized...it's YOUR style.
Any good writer has the heart of a poet.

and for those who have an enthusiasm for brevity.....
....CYU L8R...

I really don't understand the tl;dr people. I come to this forum with the express intention of finding something to read.

If it's long, that just means more time reading, less time looking for something to read.

This was well written, poignant and funny. It was even formatted properly, instead of the massive wall of text we see so often.

Maybe there's some money to be made by releasing an audiobook version of the forum?

I like NB's edit, it's sort of a like a beatnik poetry standup reading.

Embrace...remorse...
Emerge!

Maynard G Crebs would have liked it too.:grin:

We're too young to know about these things.....or not.

Might as well throw in Dobie Gillis to the mix.

Today, Bill is, arguably, the most popular politician / statesman in the land.

Lol, no he most certainly isn't.

By the way, I highly recommend Christopher Hitchens' book "No One Left To Lie To: The Values of the Worst Family"

It's available on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/No-One-Left-To-Lie/dp/1859842844

(It was always fun to see Hitchens go on TV and call Clinton a rapist while Clinton's lawyers remained strangely silent.)

Here's a thread on it from the time of the match.

Thanks. I remember that now. Not a real blot on his repute as far as I'm concerned.

Sunny, I think you've been paying too much attention to Cowboy Dennis *****ing and whining about it. It's pretty obvious that a heavy majority of people can get over it. As for the rest, all but a few don't even care.
