The simple answer is KV has no self control.
For example, If I'm riding down the highway and someone cuts me off for whatever reason. I have two options at this point.
1.I'll beep my horn with a WTF look on my face to express displeasure and then go about my business.
2. Follow the other driver to their destination, confront the other driver and want to fight it out in the parking lot.
Which option would you think KV would take?

Ken AND Dave-
No one is ruining any moment for the couple and their new cue. No one except Kevin.
Remember, Kevin started this thread... NOT GulfHills (the wife). This was Kevin's way of showing off his work. He opened the floodgates when he posted pics and stated that the blank was NOT his. If he didn't want questions, he shouldn't have started the thread.
But no one is ruining the couple's moment as this was NOT their thread. This was another example of Kevin displaying his work and then objecting to criticism... which, ironically, no one gave him UNTIL he acted arrogantly and defensively.

Russ.....
I JUST SPIT MY COFFEE OUT....THANKS FOR THE LAUGH, AND THE MESS.
P.S. I'M GUESSING, IT'S AN OLD OVERSEAS ADAMS BLANK. HOW MANY EARLY 80'S PALMER AND BRUNSWICKS USED THE SAME BLANKS.
JUST A GUESS, BUT IT LOOKS WAY TO SIMILAR TO THOSE POINTS FOR ME NOT TO THINK THAT'S WHAT IT IS. SOME OF THOSE BLANKS WERE WHAT I CALL MODIFIED FULLSPLICE, WITH A BUTTERFLY SPLICE HIGH AND LOW IN THE HANDLE AREA. (TO ME THEY AREN'T FULLSPLICE) BUT THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS CUE, JUST SHARING INFO.
Most customers normally don't know where the blanks, or woods, etc. come from, so she probably wouldn't have been able to answer the question anyways, IMO.pharaoh68 said:
First, I want to say I'm NOT defending him, or anyone else!! I have read the posts in this thread and if Masonh really just wanted to know who the blank was from, and NOT create the ensuing rush of KV beatings, then a pm would have been the way IMO, but I get the impression that this is exactly what he wanted to do. And you guys jumped in faster than stink on sh$t, almost as if you practice it.
As for the him stating 'it was another's blank' why is that so bad??? Atleast he was upfront about it. One would think that all the participants would have something better to do than to wait for the varney detectors to go off and go running to the keyboards to gang rape KV every time he posts. JUST PUT HIM ON IGNORE and go on with your lives, please.
I'm repeating this..I'm NOT here to defend him, I'm airing my Opinion, just as I've had to read everyone elses and I'm just damn tired of trying to view a thread about a new cue and look at it, or any thread for that matter, without all the immature rantings, bashings, and BS from the anti- groups that have formed here as of late, that in this particular issue, for the most part, such as yourself, aren't a customer, and have lost absolutley nothing in this whole mess but have this compulsion to jump in and beat the dead horse deader under the pretense of warning other potential customers, which was already done months ago and now is just plain persecution, IMO. If the customers feel burnt, and I understand why they would, then they should seek legal action, and I would urge that they do, but if the by-standers want in on the action, then they should pay for a cue from him, then get in the legal line with the other customers at the courthouse, not here. The points were made months ago, no need to continue over and over and over. Then we won't have to hear about it every freaking time we power on our computers and try to spend what little time we have during our busy days relaxing and ENJOYING this forum again.
I'm done, so I'm getting off my soapbox and will not return to post in this thread, as I know that all that is going to be done is to bash me along with KV, as your group doesn't seem to tolerate any dissenting opinions from your own. Go ahead, but atleast rethink the whole 'mob' type mentality that seems to be prevailing around this forum as of late. (and I don't mean the Soprano type of mob).

Dave,i asked the customer b/c i didn't want to ask Kevin b/c i knew he would get bent out of shape.why would asking what kind of blank it is create KV bashings?that doesn't make any sense.
you are wrong about my intentions,i was just curious about the blank.i thought it looked a lttile like a Davis,and wondered if it was one that he made years ago when he was making them.
now i know you said several times you are not defneding KV,so are you just trying to tell me that i can't ask an AZ member what kind of blank his cue was made from?what are you saying?
Masonh, I sincerly apologize for having made an assumption, and therefore a statement that wasn't true, based on that assumption. At the very least, I owe you this public apology.masonh said:
The question you asked was legit, but I felt it provided the spark for the others to attack and I incorrectly made the assumption that it was deliberatly done by you. I have pm'ed you with an apology, and hope to hear from you soon. I hope we can put this behind us, but if not, I fully understand.
Dave
