got talked into coming out of "retirement" for a team tournament in Memphis this weekend. Hope everyone has a great weekend and wish my rusty pool skills a quick recovery here!

I'll try to check it out. We've got three teams of eight going up there, and of course everyone has their own "we've gotta go eat here" idea for the weekend /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif That's the good thing about Memphis, though... not a whole lot of bad choices when it comes to BBQ /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Let us know where you are playing. </span>

I'm sure we'd all have a blast together! I've always enjoyed the time with anyone I've met off of here!

<span style="color: #FF0000"> Q, as much as we disagree on politics, you'd be welcomed in Memphis and fed the very best food you could imagine.
We would then take a short journey over to HighPockets (my homeroom) and you would feel as if you were with family. I spend much time in your country and was always welcomed and treated well as soon as they found out I was not German! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
If you ever make it across the water, we expect you to give us a call and meet up with us. Playing pool, the politics go out the window. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif</span>

Chopsticks,
You continue to show why you are a hero to many as well as a mentor to a letcherous few! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
Hanging out behind the home for unwed mothers was a masterpiece of an example formall the high school kids at both Whitehaven and Westwood.

Well, we won't be supporting any tournaments out there again. I'll spare the details, but it was bad enough that our league operator actually apologized to all of us for bringing us into it! I may give the full story later when I'm not so tired from a long weekend. Good news is I won all my matches... was a little rusty, but played good enough I guess

I had never heard of that place but am sorry that I didn't call a friend there to get the scoop for you. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif
I am pretty sure you would not have listened to me anyway! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
Last time I was there, only Obama voters as far as the eye could see. Ace and I never got more than two feet from our 45's while we were there this Summer!
Sorry but it was once a great town, until Elvis left. Town! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Well all in all we did still have fun. We just wish we had used all that money we put into the tournament and that shady poolhall in a more productive way...like Beale Street /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
