So depressing...

I used to be a decent pool player. Not great, but decent.

Got back on a 9' table yesterday (and went back for more punishment today) for the first time in probably 6 or 7 years. (Bar tables are NOT even close... almost a new kind of game).

It hurt. Alot. Missing even the most basic of shots (and inexplicably hitting the really difficult ones). I shudder to think what getting my stroke back is going to cost me in table fees.

On the flip side, my go game is improving.. so a little from column A, a little from column B... etc.

Note to self: Must make more time for photography.

i think that the closest i'll get to Chicago this year will be when i go out to Indianapolis in June for the USGP

right now i'm waiting on 3 cues:
Bert Schrager--- almost 5 years of waiting
Joel Hereck--- almost 2 years into a 5 year wait
and
Ernie Guiterrez (Ginacue) only a 6 to 7 month wait

once i get one of the cues, and a new pair of glasses that have bigger lenses i think i may try to start to play seriously again.

You're lucky that you can play. I'm TERRIBLE at pool, and it makes me so sad because for a few months in college I really wanted to be a pool shark.

Thanks for the congratulations!
