Good thing it wasn't alive...I would have been sued for malpractice due to permanent disability.

Speaking of lawsuits...(not sure when this happened):

A West Virginia convenience store worker was awarded a whopping $2,699,000 in punitive damages after she injured her back opening a pickle jar, this according to a report in the Charleston Daily Mail.

Go ahead...I'm telling your mommy and daddy on you for whacking cues into GC's. :p (you're gettin' a whippin'....you're gettin' a whippin')
I bet he borrowed a Joss to use instead of his Predator! :p

Should I call him "dummy" now or later? The hollow end of a Predator shatters soooooo much better.

Sarah might not be too small any more. Being such friends with LS77...she may be feeling "sympathy eating pangs" and gorging her ass into new realms of girth. :eek: :eek:

I think what we need here is an MRI and that Dr. whatever his name is from Billiards Digest to interpret for us. :D
An X-ray tech you mean?
Kerry Zeiler and Edwin Reyes are both former x-ray/rad-techs.
But, the way this thread is going, they shouldn't bother.
Both have a collection of cue x-rays.
Since cue x-rays are of no significance, maybe they should publish them without getting sued. :rolleyes:

the xrays didn't really blow my mind. I'd like to see stop-motion or video x-ray shots of a cue while it's hitting a ball...that might be interesting to see how the pin reacts etc.

would also be interesting to see some tests on how different parts of cues resonate/vibrate during a hit
 
I have a better idea. Let's char the cuestick just right and use it for charcoal for this weekend's barbecue! Or instead, it could be used for skewering colossal shrimp and lobster tails!

What your cue really needs is a sit down with Dr. Phil. That man will fix your cue right up! :D
 
Objects in motion would appear very blurry on x rays. X rays require long exposure times for the kind of images needed here in this thread.

This cue shows an overdilled hole ( black area is air, silver is metal ) in the forearm. Looks like a 3/8 16 metal stud and nickel silver ring between the handle and forearm.

It looks like the Schon has the most precise construction of the 5! It's a little scary how large those gaps in the Espiritu's are.

Yep, the coal- mines closed down!!! Those x-rays remind me of my 4 x-hubbys, ;)
 
So if the Cue hits Great, Plays well, but ITS X-rays look Terminal, should the Cue get Euthanasia?
