Great pictures as usual, JAM. One of these days you're going to look back and realise you have a valuable historical Pool resource in these photographs...

Katrina, the beauty with Neils Feijen, played in the Chicago Viking Championship and looked pretty solid. After a while of watching the boys play, it's nice to have somebody like her to "rest your eyes" on (even though she's not my type) and still see some good playing. Looks like Pam Treadway will also make the watching more enjoyable. To my eye, both of these ladies is more of an eye treat than Jeanette (who, ironically, is more my type).
I wonder: who do the girl spectators like among the male pros?

JAM, it is unfortunate that some people choose to antagonize you. You should realize that for the most part, it is just sport for them. You are not the only one that they take aim at. If some of them could get away with it at azbilliards they would be there getting in their barbs there too. An unmoderated board has its weaknesses but it also has its strengths. The speed and ease of reading posts on RSB as well as the ease of sorting the posts by different types of criteria using MS newsreader makes it enjoyable and fast. As you and everyone here on RSB already knows, I and many others enjoy your posts here on RSB and hope you will continue.
Your statement that you made a mistake about posting them on RSB (carrot and stick) even with the "sad winkie" grates on me, one of your many supporters on this newsgroup. That type of statement does nothing to improve the situation. While it is not always an easy thing to ignore the antagonizers, you have to either ignore their taunts, block their posts are slide down in the mud with them. I have done all of these and believe that you don't play the mud slinging game as well as they do. Fast Larry is the only newbie to this forum who gives them more than they can stand. I no longer read any of Fast Larry's posts because he failed to accept the olive branch that I extended to him. The pig wrestlers enjoy it and they appear to be able to antagonize effortlessly either through conscious or unconscious effort. Blocking them means that you normally won't see their posts. If that is good enough for you, great. If your ignoring them works, great. But your using the carrot and stick does not make the journey on RSB any easier.
I am sure that the posters on azbilliards are more diplomatic with their posts because the posters know they can be eliminated from the family. Here, you can be as bad as you want to be and no one can stop you. Fast Larry is a good example of that. So the worst often comes out in people who otherwise might be good company. Hope you continue to post on RSB but if not I will visit azbilliards to read your always interesting posts. Love the pictures. Thanks, JoeyA

Gee JAM don't stop on my account. I was thinking it was a good thing you were out of my bitbin -- I enjoyed the stories (didn't chase the link though).

The crux of the problem with these continuous and needless taunts is that they continue to drive valuable contributors away from this newsgroup and as a result, we all suffer. JoeyA

I'm sorry JAM, but you have to be recused as a judge on this issue.
IMO, you are a better mud slinger than most, but not all, of the Monkey Men on RSB.

Yes, they do. That is why she should not make them.

George, getting a rational response from JAM is less likely than getting one from FL. I had her unplonked for the New Year, but maybe it's best to put her back in the bitbin with him (she ADMIRES him fercrissake) so we don't all have to be reminded what a nutcase she is.

JAM says to George. "...you're not worthy of that (Monkey) category."
wow. There's something lower than being an RSB "Monkey (insert JAM assigned descriptor)"
For some reason, I feel oddly relieved

a sad, sick, twisted example, imo, of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
