I believe I should have gone to class instead!!
 
I said it once before, and I'll say it again. Ghost, I like your style!
And by-the-way, I get a feeling you were around when poolroom floor was wood, and at the end of a game you tapped the butt of the cue on the floor and the guy running the place came over to re-rack the balls wearing a cloth apron around his waist with coins jingling in the pockets. After he racked 'em he took a dime from a pile of change laying on the end-rail and walked off putting the rack around his neck.
Where the room was dark and smoke hung low from the ceiling and soda pop came cold in a bottle and there was nothing better on a hot day than an RC and a bag of peanuts. If you wanted something warmer going down your throat you went out back and passed around a brown paper sack.
Hoppe titelists hung on the walls like soldiers at attention, and the restroom smelled of warm piss and rust.
Times change, Ghost. Times change.
