I'll Always Love Playing Pool

Played the other night.

See how straight I’m lined up?  That’s good form.  Years of gymnastics pays off in the strangest ways.

I should film my token chalking-the-cue move, it’s overly-dramatic.

This is how d-bags rest their cues.

I’ll re-embed my jump shot video, this is my 2nd-ever KeriBlog video.

After the intense-ness of Canadian Explorer, this felt wrong to post, and took me staring at the upload button for 20 minutes: it’s only 8 seconds long… took only 9 minutes to edit and render… this feels really wrong.

Here’s an older post about pool, some of my likes.

Hey I should make a ‘Pool’ catagory here on KeriBlog….. and done.

Played a Lot of Pool in August

I used to be really into it years ago.

I even have my own pool cue:

I’d forgotten how much I loved it.

Remember when I tweeted:

– Just got sooo hustled in pool, I’m laughing so hard right now.

– Won back the table with an epic 8-ball shot on the hustler. Been at this for hours. Ordered pizza to the bar. What an excellent Saturday night.

It was from this night.

I like doing drills, I don’t like playing doubles, an 18oz cue is ideal.

I find playing in my glasses tough, played in a league for a bit, I always stand like this.

Best Part of a Hotel Room with 2 Queen Beds

The best part of a hotel room with 2 Queen beds is using one while wearing clothes and shoes.

I would never at home, so dirty.

Similarly, I’ve never understood putting a suitcase on a bed while packing it, that thing is a cesspool.

Oversteer VS Understeer

Still don’t totally understand it, but have learned that:

While racing, if the tires are squealing, you’re doing it wrong.

Sounds all fast and dramatic, but actually only indicates your rookie-ness.  It’s the equivalent of not being able to do a bank shot in pool, which brings out the sharks…

 

 

Good to be Back Online

Just been mouth-breathing around, you haven’t missed much.

Still riding out the bi-annual fever here. Didn’t even write the news yesterday, maybe the 3rd time I’ve ever not.  Next week’s column won’t be getting a * beside it on the index page.

Kept kicking to the end, and before I went down Friday night, I managed to be up 140% at the casino, and win at pool (but barely, good game, 3-3 and down to the 8). Then I fell on my face and slept until Sunday, an 18 hour run. Whatever you hear going about this flu going around, believe it.

Nothing huge happening this week, lots of little meetings, dinners and email, but no big events.

Next week we’re off to Kentucky with Chrysler, and their 2014 200 sedan. And booked a Hyundai trip today, end of April in BC with their 2014 Genesis.

It’s been so boring I don’t even have any photos to embed below, so here’s a total lazy blog move, and another screenshot from the below gif TTYT
