Yeah, I'd love to have a pool table. I played a bit in college. I was taught to play by a friend who managed the game room at the university. She and her twin sister (flaming redheads, stereotypical Irish features) must have been quite a sight in their earlier career. Their dad was in the army and they used to scam cash at the local pool hall by playing pool for money with soldiers who just assumed those "cute lil girls" would be easy marks. (They could have been indulging in a little tall tale telling, but they were awfully damned good at pool.)
