IPT Qualifier, Sunday
Got up early and went and ate my favorite breakfast, steak and eggs, it was pretty damn good considering that it came from Village Inn. My first match was Paul Ridenour, very nice person and good player. Even though he had a monster for a break for some reason he didn't make a ball till probably the 15th or 16th games, it was really weird. It was a ( Read more... ) -
IPT Qualifier, Saturday
They started at 1pm but I got a bye in the 1st round (Yay!), then proceeded to get my ass handed to me by Will Bilbrey. He played a great set and won 10-3, but the set was closer than the score would indicate ( Read more... ) -
Qualifier update
Drove down on Thursday afternoon and checked in to the hotel, nothing special. Went to the pool room to practice for an hour then went back early to read. I started reading "The Way of the Peaceful Warrior" which is about a man who tries to reach the enlightenment of Zen. It's a very interesting read as most Zen books are just about the path, not ( Read more... ) -
Interesting week already
This morning I submitted an idea for an "invention", they are going to seriously look at it to see if it's marketable. There might be some issues with a patent due to someone using a form of this type of tool in a book years ago, but I have to research it ( Read more... ) -

The past few days

I played like a flaming homosexual that never picked up a cue before and should have beat Corey Deuel and Charlie Williams, but I still haven't learned to win ( Read more... ) -
Update
Last week we flew out to Vegas for the BCA show, damn was it fun. Saw more people from LA than you could shake a stick at, it was like a reunion. Lost about $1k gambling and of course bought another cue, but what else is new ( Read more... ) -
Credit score
I know it may not seem like much to some, but it means a big deal to me. This morning I received a notification that my credit score has changed so I went to Equifax to check it out. My score went from 628 to 669, twelve months ago my score was only 540 ( Read more... ) -
Florida Pro Tour, Planet 9-Ball
This weekend Donnie and I drove down to Tampa for the event at Planet 9-Ball, it's a nice room and has a full liquor bar.........so it was a given that it would be a good weekend. Drove down uneventfully on Friday night and went to the pool hall for some practice, nothing special there so we went to the room early ( Read more... )
