Hey all

All of a sudden, it's like summer is here.  Warm weather, sunny days,
and crappy television.  Oh wait, television has always been a vast, vast
wasteland.  Vast.  But that's why you read the Juice and Gin:  for the
insightful, thought-provoking...

Okay, even I can't even propagate lies that big.  But really, the J&G
has lots of nice, little, easy to understand words.  And what more can
anyone ask for?  Besides fewer odd-ball references that only three
people actually understand.  You know who you are.

In any event (puntastic!) the Pool League continues to flourish.  For
some insane reason I'm now trying to incorporate a new handicapping
system into play, and only time will tell if this is a wise move. 
Considering it takes about five minutes to explain probably means that I
need to spend more time at the drawing board before this thing goes
"live."  But in the meantime, there's still lots of fun pool to be
played and new players are always welcome.

And one last little shout out to my sister Linda, who doesn't receive
enough in the shout out department.

Until next time,

The gold lame jumpsuit really doesn't help.

And now, the rest of the story...
