Hi all,

Well....the time has come. I've got a bit more time left before I go "wheels up"....and I've got plenty to do before that time comes to keep me busy.

BUT.....PLEASE KEEP ME IN MIND FOR CUES THAT YOU'RE LOOKING TO SELL EVENTUALLY!!! WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE, I'LL BE BACK IN THE SPRING OF '07....AND BACK IN FULL SWING ON MY CUE COLLECTION![/U]

I'll be in the market for all kinds of cues...but specifically, I'LL WANT TO BUY A NICE 4-POINTER TASCARELLA AND A NICE BLUEGRASS CUE!!

Before I go, I just wanted to take an extra minute to thank those folks whom I've dealt with over the past 10-11 months, in one way or another. I'm looking forward to dealing with you all again (some are already in the works!! :) ;) ), and some I look forward to dealing with upon my return to the cue-world.

In no particular order:

HUNTER, BUSHWHACKER, BAMACUES, DENNY, BOGEY54311, GUYCRUNCH, I_MAYCOTTE, GUTSHOT, BADABING, JAZZ, DAYTONAJOE, SROBER, GFORCES1911, PETREECUES, 12SQUARED, CHRISONLINE, AXEJUNKIE, KEVIN VARNEY, IRONCHEF, MATT24, PURDMAN, FAST N LOOSE, NICK SERDULA, SCOTTR, HAL, JEFF, TITLISTSUCKER (keep fighting hard, Raist!!), 1PROSCOE, DANLAMB, CUBSWIN, JAYPAGER, SCRUGGSINHAND, TATE, KOOP, RIDEWITHTHEWIND......AND TO EVERYBODY ELSE THAT HAS EITHER DONE A DEAL WITH ME, GIVEN ME GREAT ADVICE WHEN I NEEDED IT MOST, OR JUST TOOK SOME TIME TO SHOOT THE PROVERBIAL BREEZE WITH ME.

I'll try to check in on the boards every other week (or so) while I'm away, checking PMs on potential cue buys I'd like to seal up, and to see what the cue trends are over the next 4-6 months.

Be well, take care of yourselves, and we'll see ya in the Spring!!! BRING YOUR CUES, GUYS....I'LL BE ON A MISSION!! :D :D :D

Be good, ya'll.

Have a great trip and speedy return,
Myron

Chris,

Looking at the list, you would think so, wouldn't ya!!? :)

Suffice to say, I came to the forums with a THUNDER, for sure!

To answer your question, I'm an Air Force guy (that's AIR Force....NOT CHAIR force! :) ).

Thank you for the kind words, sir. Kinda amazing that the only cue that survived my liquidation was the jump/break cue I got from you!! Looking forward to dealing with you again, too!

Be good, and thanks again!

Maybe when you get back, I can get Purdman with me to hook up for a welcome round of pool play.
I just may have to break this beast out of my safe for you as well....

Is that.....dare I to dream..........is that what I think it is??!!?? Wanna trade the cue for Bin Laden's head? I'll gift wrap it for ya!!

And, I'm all for going a round or two with ya'll when I get home. Mind you, I'll have had to suffer through a stint of fake-slate barbox pool with dead rails while I'm away...so I may need a round or two to find my stroke again...but I'm game!!! :)

Hey Mark,

Take care of yourself over there! Keep in touch and we'll have some new goodies for you to choose from when you're ready in the spring. Give our best to Jen and Z.P.!

Best always,

Steve and Rose

P.S. - used the Jensen as partial trade for a wrapped Schick S/P with two shafts!

Yes!
And has been only test hit once since I got it last year.
Been under lock and key since.

Trade - not sure how I can break a rack, jump with it or even get in stroke with what you offered.
But an interesting offer.

So let us know when you return and this guy may see some light again.

Thanks, Steve. Glad to see that the Jensen went to a good cause. Congrats!!!! Nice choice, for sure.

Give my best to Rose...and, as always, my best to you, my friend.

If you still have that AE cue when I get home, I'll buy it back!! :)

Be good, sir.

I shudder at the thought of actually seeing that cue in person...might even loose control of a bodily function or two! :)

Looking forward to it, Alpine.

Be good, Cubs. I might want that Carter of yours when I get back......care to have Mr. Carter fix that 2nd shaft first? If so, consider it sold!!!

Take care, sir.
