Two On The Same Day Dilemma

DrCue'sProtege said:
I got both cues already. The UPS guy got me out of bed at 10:00 this morning, knocking on the door. I have Insomnia. However, me and my dog both jumped out of bed in a hurry!

Anyway, I did open the box with the Pechauer cue. And I must admit it is one of the most beautiful cues I have ever seen! I've not opened the box with the Joss cue yet. I have to run to the grocery and then the Amish restaurant and eat my late lunch. Then I will come back home and open the box with the Joss cue. Then head down to the table.

No way I'd put off opening a new cue just to go and eat. If I had a table at home I might go a day without eating to get some table time in with them.

Amish restaurant, huh. Take you a big ‘ol bite of that rhubarb pie. Now picture those Yoder’s kneading that dough with their fingernails and cuticles packed with manure.

get that authentic 1878 flavor in your pie crust.

BTW....I grew up on rhubarb, we had it in the garden, and Mom made strawberry rhubarb jam/jelly every year.

Thread 'Billiards VS. the Church'

The Church has a long history in billiards history. In the earliest days, the game was often denounces as sinful, dangerous, morally corrupt. In 15th century France billiards play was forbidden by the Church as well as the King. In early American history, owing to religious influences, actual laws were passed outlawing the game in many parts of the country.

The dome in Monticello, Thomas Jefferson’s home, has a hidden billiard room in it. During that time, it was illegal to play billiards in Virginia.

Guess that means no. :D How many Rumspringans do jail?
 
Charles Stanley said one time that years ago some of his buddies wanted him to go play pool with them. He said back then a pool hall was nothing but a beer joint so he didn't go.

And if you don't know who Charles Stanley is/was look him up. An outstanding man and preacher.

I've just received the UPS shipping notification emails for both the new Joss Custom and the new Pechauer Custom. I am getting them both on the same day! That day being this Friday, the 27th!

Anybody ever get two new custom (or semi custom) cues on the same day? Maybe I will luck out and one of them will get delayed until Monday.

Which one will I play with first???

Delivery company delivery notifications are bogus. Packages are nearly always delivered early, except occasionally they are very late or lost.

Well, jeepers, sorry posters.

I thought it was pretty cool that I am getting two really nice cues on the same day. Thought that was a good thing. Was wondering if anybody else ever had it happen.

But, once again, insults and stupid comments abound. Welcome to AZB. Unfortunately.

Well, that made me laugh, two reasons. First, pool aficionados are mostly grizzly guys who really enjoy beating each other. Of course there will be friendly banter. You couldn't expect less. You should listen to me and my brother play pool. We sound like the Marx Brothers, except no one is writing the best stuff down. Second, I've often thought the exact thing about AZB.
 
Problem with buying cues is that if you have a good eye and 'feel' for what cues will be good players, you wind up with too many great cues. Then you wish you only had TWO to choose between, but you even more too many. But, let's face it: They still tend to cost less than fancy cars and take up a lot less space. :)

He invented the push button, spring loaded retractable tape measure.
