[POOL] Last night

[Boettinger, William]

Just remember, I lost first.

"while Art still had ~4 of his balls on the table" - Art is twice the
man that I could ever be and I think
any sentence with the number "4" in it is hilarious. 4 is one of the
funny numbers.

Forgive me Craig, but I just couldn't let that one get away and the way
I look at it my girls will be more
mature than me in about a week or two, so I'm hoping they'll show me how
to grow up. Till then, I'm still
a juvenile.

Brian lost his second game, but then won the next two--the last one
after a sweet run--taking the match 3-1.  My match against Art started
poorly, with me scratching on my first shot.  Despite that, somehow I
managed to make a nice comeback and win the first game.
Unfortunately, Art & I were very evenly matched, and I lost the next
two, despite having a shot on the 8 in the final game while Art still
had ~4 of his balls on the table (which Art proceeded to sink in
succession after I failed to pocket the 8), losing the match 1-2.

The end result then was 2 wins and 3 losses for the night.
