Anyone buying a special cue or case to treat yourselves?
Anyone expecting a particular gift from your loved ones?
Anyone saving up for that particular cue/case for the Christmas season?
Come on, let's hear it.
Well, I will start first, I have a new Justis Case by Jack Justis--it is a perfect case in every little way.

Well, I am having a cue made, BHQ ( brent ) which is kinda my Christmas gift, since i only am asking for money for christmas from my mom n stepdad.
So it'll be my late Christmas gift since it's going to take about 6months or so to make.

anyway for those interested:
ebay --> search for zippo pool , and ull find them all over the place. most shops have them at 23,97 (cheapest buy it now i found, most are at 24.99) buy it now. ==> http://cgi.ebay.com/Zippo-Lighter-P...942QQihZ014QQcategoryZ952QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

if some are bidding, i would put up a max of around 18-20$ nothing more. i bought mine for 16$
aparently many AZB'ers would like one. hehe imagine the next no reserve zippo getting 45 bids all from AZB'ers bidding wars
here are some other zippo designs, but they just dont look as cool. (actually they are ugly)
next one is cool to, but still nothing like the one i bought.

Dan Trogdon (http://trogdoncues.com) is going to make me a set. I'll post them in that same thread when they come. He made my Dishaw JP's and they were just beautiful! I highly recommend him making some for you.

Wow that's nice.
Believe it or not... Perserverance!
This past yr alone i have faced many challenges that has tested my peserverance and yet have a few more to overcome.
Recently went thru the troubles of DUI, with about 8 months only being able to play pool half of the time, and the APA team had kicked me off at that time from both 8 & 9 ball.
With a roommate that's an a** trashed my truck, now waiting for it to get repaired, now that is going to be another 4 weeks or so.
In the meantime, i've had to play local stuff, but always wound up in the top 3 and been really concentrating on the "effective" practicing with little or no time i have.
Now the DUI thing is done, I just have to wait till get my truck back in order. Hopefully I can get back on track of things.
But like I said, I received perserverance, and definitely getting rewarded and would not trade it for the world. It's taught me a great deal of patience/gratitude on the table, whenever I ever do get a chance to!
As for Physical items, i've been planning on getting:
1. a New McDermott Cue, mine is getting shabby, and have had it oiver 10yrs.
2. Put a phenolic tip on my breaking cue - Just to get a feel of it.
3. A new Cue Case which can hold 3 butts and at least 3 shafts.
