April 30th 2004 Friday

Craig rips me a new one at BBC Thursday night...

 

Craig....If there was one person I can honestly say has shows serious improvement in the last few years in there game, its Craig. I remember when he couldnt make a ball to save his life, now every body fears the guy when he walks down the steps of BBC. Behind his plesent smile and very well behaved manners in his carried presence along with his profesional pool edicate is a secret assassin waiting to kick your ass; yes he will go for that combo on the nine and not do that " I wont do it so we can have a game thing". Some guys never learn and others learn quickly and there are those who know how to learn and keep learning. The art of learning is vital if you intend to keep growing beyond levels you never imagined you would reach.

Final words for April. Theme Song Incubus "Warning"
Good bye April 2004, its been a strange yet tolerant month, but I have lived stranger, I have loved and lost won and gotten beaten, but never will I say for these days I haven’t eaten-everything I mouthed off about and kept silent about. What am I talking about? Who knows, this is the kind of month it’s been. It starts with old past never going to change and eating bad Sushi for the first time. This was the month of new beginning and death of old beginnings. I feel older for the time in 20 years. I cant see what’s ahead right now but I am definitely living day by day with a kind of Karma that leads me some were in the middle. I feel I am doing things right and my old self is going to die; permanently. I need a shave.
*
Today someone ask about her (Thursday night)
Unbelievable, still this girl has people seeking her out and wondering were is she. I really hated being the barer of bad news. Funny, I was thinking about her last week and strongly Wednesday on the train ride home; I almost started to cry even when I came to the idea of how she was taken away. You see, on Wednesday when I went to the store with Ronnie for our useale coffee run, and on the way back toward the same corner were “she” was found on. I almost tripped coming off the curb. It was so dam dark there on the ground anybody can fall off of it and land face first on the street, that’s when it occurred to me that maybe she simply tripped of the curb and then was struck. The ideas alone made me welt in the eyes on the train car that Wednesday night. Then Thursday evening someone who had not been at the bar for the last two years asked for her. I tripped twice on the corner, and once I looked the wrong way. I miss her dearly and wonder in the next after life is she ever going to play on my team.
*
Some people just don’t know how to behave with me.
I asked if she wanted to take a picture and she got emotional about it, jeez all she had to do was say no. I tried to make nice with her and the more I do it the more attitude she gives me, until I start ignoring her then she’ll asks me why am I ignoring her? What a Dummy.

(After I got beat up by criag I went to E-bar Thursday night)

In case you were wondering, Yes Venus does work at the E-bar and yes I am in captured by her complex. I try my best to ignore her being Mercury is my sign. And yes she is commited to someone else for a long long long long time; This always helps me to keep away. Too much work to compete with her handsome devil man freind. Its always the good ones that are taken, or there just gay. If thats the case, then make syre you have a great butt and youll' break even in the love department.

April 29th 2004 Thursday " She was hot, up till the part were she spoke"..

Sometimes looks can make you get away with things, and sometimes it can cost you as well. I think we went on a date once. Being we went to the same high school together.

 

Just a thought.
I don’t feel right about saying this, or writing this; whatever. Who am I to judge or even state an opinion leading to judgment? But; if a person is going to invest so much time and money in playing on the APA. At the very least try to give it your best in however-or-whatever your approach is, do it for the sake of the team endeavor. If you take your opponent for granted, well, there is just something arrogant about that. This might lead to bad karma. Your Karma will affect the team’s current situation. Its scary to think that there are some people who played in the APA for so many years and they repeat the same mistake over and over. Maybe it like Michelle says, some people just play to be social, if that’s the case then where is the incentive to win?

Treat your opponent seriously.
It doesn’t matter if you have been on it for 20 years and the other guy, only a year. Too think you are better then the other guy will impair your game on some level needed to play your game, if not at that moment of game then definitely later. Sometimes when I am playing I don’t even see anything any more but the table, sometimes I even forget some one is there, but at no time during the match will I judge my opponent as “not as good as me” or “I am better”. Doing this will impair my stroke
.
Some one was saying today.
“ That guy was hot, until he opened his mouth” Yup I feel the same way about Jennifer xxxxx, (and a few other girls as well) She is so good to look at, beautiful from all angles. Great skin, shiny hair, and so on, but the second she/they opens her/their mouth, the fantasy/impression what ever you want to call this thing called attractiveness is over. It’s amazing how some people can constantly keep saying the stupidest thing and people patronize it by still giving them their full attention because they are good looking. Maybe it might be conceded of me to say I wont talk to any person if the only thing that comes out of there mouth every ten seconds is something about them-selves. Then again, who am I to judge.

Darts
We Suck! Molly and I hit everything but the target bulls eye. So we switch over to 501, we did much better with this. I forgot who won though. Molly is always a winner in my book. MollykNight.com

Looks like there is going to be big changes on all the teams at E-bar.
It seems lots of people on all the teams want to come and go. Pretty sad-really, now that we are all going to get our trophies the incentives would have changed the attitudes of a lot of the players that come out of E-bar. I want all my Rumble Fish there when we get the trophies. I like all of my Rumble Fish.
Broken level six.
I played with some dude from the APA yesterday. He said I play like a broken six. “What do you mean”? I asked. “You missed your key ball on both games in stead of having two inning per match you could have broke and ran; twice.” This is something I need work on. I know missing that key ball is stemming from something outside my game on the table. Could be the moon. Could be my job. Could be just me being nuts.

Break and Run and a little Fun

There was an insodent at the table peter did some kwack-fu to settle it...

Ok so I played my match for my Tuesday team…we won, I won. I broke and ran the last table; the last game…Last game of the season. We are now in first place. Everybody played well. Weeeeeeeeeee; to bad this is not Rumble Fish I am talking about.

Rachelle wants to be a Rumble fish next season, so does Champion Drew, Michelle, Vivian, Marsha, Alex, Kimba and about three to five other names I cant think of off the top of my head right now. Funny, we lose the season and everybody wants to jump on the team. But when, we were winning why back when, for the last 4 seasons in a row, I had a hard time finding players during that whole time; what is this?

So afterward, team stick it in went to the E-bar for celebration shots. And that’s when Shot man and the Bar-Ladies there got a little wacky.

My co-captain Michelle likes belly buttons for dinner


Handsome Drew with his handsome brother. Drew will be a Rumblefish next season, Drew is the guy in the blue tee not the collerd shirt. Then there is "Ya" another killer pool player not to mention-kinda-yummy; HmmmmmMMm?

Boy, those players are sure under alot of preasure, having all those people watch them play and yell at them when they screw up. After watching this, playing pool in front of a bunch of drunks is a peace of cake.

The Bad Ass

Saturday
I woke up. My door bell rang and my niece was at the door with her mom. We ate Pizza then I shot for a while, then I worked at the E-bar. More later...

 

 

The book is about the Zen attitude, that openness, curiosity, humility and joyfulness displayed by all great Zen teachers (and for that matter, all great teachers irrespective of their specific field). The book is about how to realize that liberating attitude and then maintain it, outside of the meditation room. Suzuki calls this attitude "Beginner's Mind."

I need Shoes Shoes Shoes

Any comments? |

Friday
Got a nice check today…going to by a new pool cue, then a new digital camera. And most importantly; shoes. So Aaron was on a date today, Aaron the stud. It’s love time, She was nice a little bite wild though. Then again, Aaron does attract the wild ones doesn’t he? I mean, look at his team. I need a love. Maybe one day when I can afford it. When I walked into corner-B to meet Aaron and his lady friend, the song that was playing was “Sway” by Big Runga I started to get a headache. Anyway we played and had fun.


Just before I meet Aaron at Corner B, I went to BBC and played Jimmy. We played even up and won even. 6 to 6. A lot of people at BBC noticed Jimmy was racking; a lot. I scared myself-I was playing so well, Jimmy is one of the one of the heavy weight champs of BBC. Alaska was there, watching me play, he said, “William, you’re getting good”. That made me happy. If there is one person I can honestly say who kicks my ass in pool, it is the man I call the fire in the ice named Shawn Morgan, AKA Alaska. His heart is the size of an ice glacier; the same sized one that sunk the Titanic.

The Reason is you….
There was a moment today I felt bad, and then angry, and then sad. It was just a moment. Lately my thoughts wonder away and I loose track of were and what I am doing. Its deep, and I don’t know were this new thought pattern is coming from.

I'm not a perfect person
As many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why i need you to hear
I've found a resaon for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You [x4]
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

Captian Spence is in Suspence

 

12-21 percent waxing Moon Wed/Thursday
Eric makes a great pizza…before I get into the “writing at the end of the day thing”, let me just say, today was a peculiar day. It started with me almost getting killed by a backward moving truck right after my meeting at the job. Then I played pool, it was early morning when I played, so early I saw jimmy in the far back of the place walking around in his under ware as if it was his living room. Afterward I went to work, work was as like always. I noticed through out the course of the day the people around me were a little out of character, doing and saying things I never heard them say or do before. It was the moon. I know it was.

If you dish it out you better learn how to take it in
Today was a lesson in getting a taste of your own medicine. But it was a harsh lesson, almost so harsh, I almost felt bad for the receiving end. It almost turned into a fistfight. I could not believe what I was hearing, He was looking to really get under his skin; make him angry make him yell, make him cry-I don’t know. I know the reason why he behaves the way he does; or at least I think I do. What ever it is I think it is still no excuse. But because I know why I handle it differently, I handle it in such a manner not many people can see

Are you ready to Rumble Spence?

It’s your first time as captain going this far, isn’t it? Rumble fish has been here before. Are you ready to swim with the big fish? If you are good. Your old team was a champion team; I think. But now you are the captain. It's diffrent now isn't it? Maybe I am crazy. But i know as captain when the team loses you lose 7X harder.

Getting back to the Pizza. It was good, Michelle brought the Wine; Two glasses and it went to my head. I was wobbly and so was Mitch. We ate candy bars with forks and smoked. later that evening AJ was baggering Ronnie to a point were Ronnie was going to strike him down. I was scared, I never seen Ronnie lose it before, He was going to lose it on AJ.

Lappy's game is a tidal force to be reckoned with #7

Ok…so I played…and won. It was tuff. Valerie’s Birthday party was happening around the pool table, drunken people yelling out to my opponent what to shoot and how to do it was getting annoying and my team was no were to be found, except for Rachel, she was hugging and drinking with Lappy though. If I showed “nice guy” at any given moment during the game I would have lost. I was so annoyed; I broke and ran the last table. I took my time and showed no mercy the best part was Lappy was watching so I tried my best not to look like a moron.
*
The party was great. Too bad I had to work the next day, if I didn’t have too, I would be vomiting beer and birthday cup cakes the next day. Val looked very honey, yummy, goodness mm-mm good.
*
Random things cause I don’t feel like thinking…
2:30am 1. Michelle told Ronnie Fuck you during her match, then she won; Michelle is Macho.
2:30am 2. There was a lot of food at the Party. I ate a lot of it.
2:30am 3. Michelle played Ronnie later that evening, Michelle won again and howled like a wolf.
2:31am 4. Shot man was there; Shot man was red like a Cherrie tomato.
2:31am 5. Sam is beautiful.
2:31am 6. Lance wants me to take down the pic I have of him on my blog. I don’t think he is fat.
2:31am 7. Spencer showed up and then applied the pool skills on the table; then Spencer lost.
2:31am 8. Alex was going to beat his opponent up after he lost; Alex left the bar mad.
2:31am 9. There is a hooker sitting next to me on the train.
2:32am 10. Spencer wants Rumble fish to lose for the season. Spencer has now applied bad Karma for his team.
2:32am 11. Ya is hot and yummy and I will give her a call tomorrow.
2:33am 12. Lappy plays good.
2:34am 13 I found a purple rabbit and a “Q” on the street on the way home.
12:10pm 14. Michelle got really drunk and beat everybody on the pool table.
12:19pm 15. There ia a gay guy sitting next to me on the train.
12:19pm 16. Somebody is staring at me right now on the train


This morning
I feel like shit. I feel like I have been smoking too much; and I have. I will try and good sleep today.

Ok Ronnie, your up

The fuck you heard around the world.
When shooters get on the table, the first shot sometimes gives an indication on how you are going to shoot for the rest of the match. What ever the quality of your game is at that moment, to derail your shooting consistency with an idea or coach coming from out of know were can really be frustrating. Especially if its coming from a source that has zero knowledge relevant from the previous shot or shots. In other words, if haven’t been watching me shoot from the beginning of the match or time during the duration of the match, don’t tell me how to end it with some idea that has no consistency with my form.
Especially if my game makes you insecure. So Fuck You.

I have beaten you Ronnie

Monday Night/Tues Afternoon

Handsome Mike

Dr Jeckel Mrs. Hyde
What-and-why in the-pie-hole is xxxxx calling me? Wha-in-the-sam-butt-flower is this? Does she think we are just supposed to be friends Monday thru Thursday and then come Friday Sat and Sunday not speak to each other or just act like jerks with each other? Part time freind-ship does not work well with William. By now if it is not established to her or to us that we cannot be chummy with each other, then maybe that is a definite sign we cannot be close anymore. Sure I will say hi in the pool hall and maybe ask how’s your team doing? But the whole hanging thing is out. There is no way I am going to let that 23 year old kid talk to me like that again. To avoid it, we just wont hang or communicate as much as we used to anymore. As sad as its sounds, it’s for the best.

I think I might of cost us the season; I think, we have been here before. We needed a macho win today and we got a mediocre win. According to Spencer, Brian and Ronnie Rumble Fish is dead third in play off position, to be in second, we have take 4 wins next week. Yet again Rumble fish is in a situation were the pressure is on. I need my whole team there if we are going to prevail for a spot in the play-offs. If we do, it will be the fifth play-off season we get in too, wow. If we don’t make it this season its not like we are losers. I know we will be in first place all summer.
*
I felt the moon was not in my favor for Monday, I need to adjust something to get the stroke back in motion. Man I hope it’s not my karma catching up, could it be the rollover matches I have been systematically doing these last few weeks? I have won 16 matches this season between Monday and Tuesday and lost four something has changed what ever it is. Stop it William just stop it.
*
Looks like I will be overloaded next season with players, a lot of people want to join my team.

April 18 2004 Sunday

 

Played a little pool
I went to practice a little early afternoon. It was fun. Me and Bill were smacking each other around for a while with Alex and Nat wishing they were as good as Me and Bill. We were just to sexy for others to play with.

 

Sunday morning, thinking about Saturday night

About last night. Last night, after Aaron left me at the pool hall I went to the E-bar. It was a mad house; you could not even walk in, drunken people everywhere

It was Lances Birthday party and two other people as well; don’t know who they are though. Ronnie had me working the door. I worked till 4am. I made good money and got lots of free drinks. Aaron should have hung with me just a little longer. But he was a little bummed about what’s her face being so shity about not wanting to hang yesterday. Just because she was angry with me for whatever stupid reason does not mean she should take it out on the rest of the boys; stupid. There was a ton of food there. Even had pastrami sandwiches.

 

Bloody Maries and then Back yard Barbecue
No more bloody-maries in pint glasses, that sucks. Ronnie was explaining to me why, I still like it in the pint glass.

 

 

 

Tiny Bloody Maries...suck

What is this world coming two
sad...

 

Valerie

We had a little pre B-day for Valarie...gave her cake and some love. Tuesday is going to be a mad house at the E-bar.

A little about last night

and some of today

the kids pay for it more than anybody

I had a pastrami sandwich for the first time in 12 years
Katzez I had my sandwich and it was mm-mm-good Like my co-captain Michelle; yummy. But there was even more at the party last night; sandwiches I mean. A lot of ladies and food what more can ya-ask for.

Must remember....dont play pool after stuffing your face at the katez

Part time friends
Aaron say’s “just say sorry Will”
And I’m like, “what the fuck for? I didn’t do anything wrong! I just asked her if she was ready to shoot and she caught attitude with me”.
“ Are we going to go bowling today Will? I call her and say you said sorry”.
“ Why Aaron? I am not sorry”
“ Cause-Will, I want to go bowling”.

The Divorce
At this point I feel like my son wants to be with his Mom but Daddy feels other wise. After that I basically said to Aaron, it’s ok with me if you want to go with or without me. What we do or who comes is a “whatever” but I am not to keen on hanging with what’s her face. I mean, what for? She is so care full about making her man in the dark insecure or have a false suspicion about something that is not there. She ends up barely looking at me during our barely two seconds conversations on the weather. It’s a drag having a part time friend. I feel Aaron is somewhat torn about who he wants to hang with and I told him its ok if he just wants to go with the mouth who owes me 23 dollars and the man in the dark. It’s fine with me I won’t be bothered by it. Aaron will get bored anyway or realize at some point he is just entertainment to her anyway, I mean out of her own mouth one winter afternoon on the phone she did say if she didn’t know him she would be picking on him too like some of the other people at BBC. Claudio didn’t call him back. I wish he did aaron was waiting. Aaron likes Claudio I like him; Claudio.

 

Oh well, so we went to the Katzez and ate like kings. Afterward we shot pool and the pastrami Sandwiches were starting to take it toll on the blood streams. It was my first Pastrami sandwich in 12 years 15 dollars I paid; wow.

Playing Mona Lisa
Some people like to play stupid (Mona Lisa), It’s a classic con game. Trying to turn it around by insinuating you mean something insulting to the other guy and so on. There are many people I know who would rather play stupid than to face the responsibility of making a critical error that is costly. Playing stupid saves you sometimes, it makes you look like the innocent and it justifies your cruel intention. Do this playing stupid thing along with some exaggerated-twisted truths and you can actually get what you want. Or at least you think you got what you want. In the long run, the truth or more to the point “the right” does not need to be proven, right and truth somehow always shows it self in the end; or the beginning, but sometimes it takes a long time for it show. I am a very enduring person. Good thing comes to those who wait.

This time I enjoyed my Oatmeal cookies….
Oatmeal is good for the skin. That’s right, hide behind that skin, hide behind that gender, hide behind that appearance that reason that-lame-reason that reason with an intention you can’t handle because it actually means something that can’t get you angry enough to function normally, you feed off of anger, you need it, it makes you feel in control; whatever. You can fool other people but you are not fooling me, you are acting like a jerk. It does not matter who thinks you are a xxxxxtim, I know better and I know you have something inside you that is angry at the world. I acutely thought you changed; you didn’t, not even a little in fact you have gotten worse because know you got no leverage so instead of smashing my oatmeal cookies I just ate-em; and enjoyed it. You gave me this notion that you are my comrade; my supporter but you are not. You obviously have your own ideas about how to treat people around you for your own personal gain and security. You used people to hurt other people around. I see you very clearly but because of this silly thing called hope I keep falling xxxxxtim to your angry personality. Always so innocent always prending to be a xxxxxtim, poor-poor-little “always angry at me” level #3 girl; who owes me $23 bucks.

April 16 2004 Friday

At least

I had a good

Tuna Sandwich

god bless the deli guy

I was not feeling to good today at work.
I woke up this morning discovering my check was 10% smaller because of a screwed up time sheet. It almost seems it was done on purpose. I was so miserable at work today not because of the job. I am not happy at my dwellings ether; it is time for me to go. All I can think about is getting out of the lodging I am living in now. Cold; It’s not my habitat or element. I am going to have to make a decision that is going to affect the rest of my life; or at least the next five years. It won’t be so bad. I got peeps that will look out.
I need an ear.
I spoke to xxxxx about some personal stuff, I said some things she probably thought she would never her me say. But I said it. She is very lucky. I am not so lucky. I miss my grand mother. I feel alone. I am a little scared but I know I can fend for my self. I am going to have to get nasty. It’s the only thing I got left. Talk does not work anymore. These people are hard headed and are already set in there ways. There ways are not my ways. I see why he behaves the way he does. I blame my self for not seeing sooner. I could have prevented it if I took action sooner, its to late; I am alone.
Cowboy
Yup, that’s me, alone in the desert on my horse. Galloping through 2004 as the iron monkey on his trusty steed. I am going to fire-em soon, my two guns, but before I shoot, I have to prepare. I can’t put it off any more. I have done it before because of this thing called hope. Hope is taking to long. Hope doesn’t pay the bills. I tried to play pool today at the hall but I just lost my incentive to do so. My mind weighs heavy with to many personal issues in my life right now. A lot of people look at me like I am some indestructible force of stubbornness, attitude, and hard headedness that will get me through tough times; this is not so, right now I am bleeding badly and running out of blood.

April 15 2004 Thursday

Are you mad?

Too bad...

because Im crazy...

More about the same…
You know something…if you don’t like it, if you find it disturbing or insulting or confusing, sorry about that, there is nothing I can do about it. People have there own ideas about the game of pool. So fucking what if I roll over a few matches sometimes for people I like or love or don’t even give a shit about. It doesn’t necessarily have to be an insult. Motivation, incentive or both can affect your game; so I am learning these days. Sometimes I’m not in it to win it when the only prize is ha-ha I won or some smug comment on how well I shot. You should not be playing pool if you’re just in it to get a win, you will never be good with that attitude. The APA has a handicap system rating, judging a persons pool game performance. You are a three and you play a five, you get two games on the wire because the other player is better than you. What if you beat the five? Does it mean your better? Or is your handicap is better?
I am in the bar league for a reason...what ever that reason is
When I am on my match that’s when its time to win, anything outside of that is an opportunity to learn something new about your game; I think. People have there own logic about it…and I have mine. My intention is not to hurt, insult or wallow. But if you want to take it that way, sorry I can’t help you there. Except maybe say “ya-got-game, but if you have been getting your ass kicked these last six months by some joe-neck-bone nobody you call a six, well sorry, practice makes perfect”. Mine is a fearless practice, and I don’t give a fuck who you are or who you play with; pool is pool and know one owns it like the-way-“one”-can. I have seen champions fly and seen them fall, to all kinds of people who own the game like “one” can. I am still learning about the game and I have a long way to go.
Somebody told me once if you’re a nobody who beat a veteran champion your still a nobody.
Then what the fuck are you? If you beat somebody who has been playing pool for 20 years, (and I mean a standard game of a race to seven even up) do you get a trophy for being the big nobody who can beat champions? I think I'll make a trophy for this. I will call it, “the deadly walk-in award”, It will be a guy standing holding a pool stick on one side and his other hand is holding a cig while wearing a cowboy hat covering most of his head; whatever.
Some people want my game…
“ Why don’t you go fuck yourself William, you think your so dam better than me that you wont give me your game. That’s why you lose? Fuck you!!!” This is not so all the time. I adore you very much, you are very special to me and I know you have game but you are hard headed like me. You were raised different from me. If I did not think you have game, then why would I lose 25 pounds cry like a little bitch for a month and beg you not to leave? If you want to grab on to words and not see the action then I am sorry you’re into talk and not into walk. My action dictates William thinks you got game, but you take part of my words and turn it into mountains of hate and beat your self up with it and get angry with me. I wont give you my honest words anymore. I think maybe you have had a hard six months and now you might be taking it out on me. I am not an emotional punching bag.

Lost and found…
I lost my henna marker in the bar and I find it on the street 6 blocks away; wow. This is like the time I lost my glove in the Bronx and find it on west 14th street on the one train two hours later the same day I lost the dam glove.

I let Ron down today… I lost my match…I can’t even remember what I was thinking during my match; or maybe I did. My opponent looked a little surprised as well. He new I gave it to him. No body applauded when I lost nobody applauded when he won. Not a sound was made after I scratched on the eight ether. My record is pretty good according to the APA standard ratings. 12 wins 4 losses. Not bad according to the APA.


According to my philosophy about the game of pool. It doesn’t matter if I win or lose; pool goes on and on. I forget I am looked at as a formidable player. Some one who gets the point’s, under rated and so on. From the way I played yesterday it looked like I never held a stick before. There is something in my head that prevented me from doing what I do. I am so scared of it I wont even right down what I suspect it is. Ron was cool with it. When you lose you win. But I let him down anyway. I feel bad. He belives in my game. I will not let him down again. If I am in to the whole “don’t judge your game thing” why do I feel bad? Maybe I new I could have done better. Is this judgment again? I wont beat myself up; I will just let it go. This whole thing might be my Karma catching up to me. Lately I have been showing mercy to people I like very much, what a dick head I am. I think maybe people wont like me if I beat them. Maybe I deserved the embarrassing lose. This is why I am living the way I am. Maybe in previous life I did wrong and I need to learn how to do things right. Treat others the same way you want to be treated; William. Stop being a dick head and arrogant. Be appreciative of what you know but don’t inflict on others for selfish, supercilious reasons. Before my next mach I will right down 500 times “I will not show mercy on the pool table” I have a feeling this lesson is over.

I will never finalize my game, as long as you keep playing, you will always be growing as a player.

The religion of William
So I have been told, Time and time again. Of this thing called, "the religion of William". Often, People told this to me by yelling it at me, “you know William! You’re never wrong! You always have the answer for everything!” More than once I have had this yelled at me. “Your so hard headed William! You think you know everything.” Yesterday someone asked me how would I rate my pool game; my pool-game? How would I “rate it”? What the hell does this mean? Asking me to judge myself is almost, evil. It’s like some sort of psychological suicide. I will no way, ever belittle my self by comparing my game with someone else. I will not say I can play like him or him or her but I cannot play like him or her or him. This sort of judgmental idea of how to rate your game is ugly and self-defeating. To learn something well and then unlearn it is key. The objective of knowing with out knowing is a journey back to the beginning, only now you have the knowledge and wisdom to understand what doesn’t need to be understood.

In the begining...
Literal, close observent and calculated practice must be done and then forgotten. To forget is not to be without knowing. To know is to not know how you know. There is a place inside of you were all knowledge and wisdom plays with child a like demeanor; everything is new and perceived and discovered for the first time. In other words. When you’re on the table, and you make the shot with the accurate position you wanted for the next ball without thinking about it, with out knowing or calculating how; this is what it means to know with out knowing. But in order to achieve this idea. You must know how and then forget how. This is done by practicing, very hard; long and hard and then forgetting. But before you forget you must know it the right way first. Only you know how to forget. Do something else other than pool, (like bowling for a few days). In your efforts to forget what you learned you will see when you get back on the table and just shoot without calculating on how to do the shot, you will see and feel-all that witch you learned has gone into your natural stroke; to the place inside of you that is like the child at play. Some people call it the zone, others say she/he’s on point or he/she’s in stroke. Feeling this newness along with the knowledge and wisdom of how to do it with out knowing how is the objective of the champion.
How’s that for a fucken rating?

So Rumble-Fish won yesterday. Four Point xxxxxtory. Weeeeeeee there was a big brawl between the two teams. Way to many technicalities, you know what, if your going to try and beat Rumble fish that way good luck.

BIG DOG????

 

Dead Beat…
I have been loaning out a lot of the bling-bling lately, bling-bling I can’t really afford to lose and it looks like I will again. Oh well. Nice guys fish last or suckers. I’ll be ok that’s the benefits of being single with no children. I need a second job. I wanted to start fencing or bowling; maybe even a shooting range. But the way things are looking right now I will have to wait a little while longer… what ever.

Big dog? I guess sometimes when you lose, you just lose. What the fuck does that mean, What the fuck are you talking like that for? What are you-scared of him or something? Now I feel like a dick. This is a slap in the face reminder on why you should not show mercy on the table; William. Rolling over a few matches to build up confidences for your player does not make them feel better about there game. It just gives them the “delusion” that there better than you; that’s all. This is not helpful, and in some ways it an insult to the opponent, I think I wrote this down before, but I forgot. Don’t feel sorry for the other guy William Don’t do it. it's egotistical and judgmentle and you are insulting the other player. I
guess sometimes when you lose, you just lose.

April 10/11 th 2004 Sat/Sun

Sometimes when you win you lose.

Aaron:109 - xxxxx:116 - Will:50 - Claudio:89 ---- I came in last on all four sets...Fun

Things are getting a little tuff for me right now. Once again I am reminded that the only person I can rely on is me; I think. I’m not in a do or die situation or anything. In fact, it’s quit simple; just leave and deal with the consequence. The consequence is not so bad. I mean, I’m living that way already. I will just have to set up correctly before I take off.

About last night. I have learned something new about xxxxx I never new before. I see why she is such a great shot on the pool table. She is a Virgo, very competitive. Me on the other hand; am not competitive; I like the sport for the sport. Sometimes though when I find my self playing someone who want to win no matter what, ill just give it to em, even though I did write once I will show no mercy to anyone ever, I think its different when the prize for a win is just gloating. Gloating is not a trophy for me. Sometimes when I play some one I really like something inside of me falls asleep; just the little part that I need to get to the end of the race. My incentive moves around; sleep walks; I really don’t know what it is.

I got poisoned at Bowling Lanes. I went bowling with Aaron Claudio and xxxxx. It was fun but the beer was so bad I threw up; a lot. I was so sick. But Bowling was great. Cluadio has the best form I have ever seen in my life. Ill do more of it later.

I have a hard time beating people I like, or love. perhaps this applies to my personal life as well; maybe. My ___ is asking me to lie about something, again. This thing will only benifit him and him only. If I drop dime on him he will go to jail. But becuse we are related I cant do it. This is affecting my games I think. If I got mean maybe ill be a winner. But sometimes when you win you lose.

Hypocrisy, Pretense, Irony...

oh my

On my way to work and thinking of the Wild Flower

Hypocrisy, Pretense, Irony...Oh my If you tell me you are good at pool and your not, does that mean your good becuse you said you are? If you have black strait hair and you tell me its blond curly hair but I clearly see black strait hair, I dont give a shit what you tell me you have, I see black strait hair . If you get a sheet of paper and a pencil and tell me you are going to draw a square and then you draw a circle but insiste you drew a square, I hate to break the news to you, but you drew a circle; your action was a circle. If I say get out of my house and then I yell with tears dont leave,well.... what does this mean?

So I went to practice. 50/50 Fuentes strikes again. Before I went to the pool hall I was informed one of my fellow co-workers is quitting. My workload has now tripled in the last three days. Anyway I went to the bar to tell Patrick and Cynthia happy birthday. Cin-wants a pair of Lucky Number seven Jeans. They were getting drunk and all were merry. Stephanie walked in. she looked yummy; a little too yummy. I walked away after I said hello. I might of started behaving like a little puppy dog if I hung around too long. MmmMMmmMMMmm Stephanie. Ok William stop it.


Rumble fish is in second place, so I was informed; Wow. My team is macho. Next season we will be even more Macho. This will be the fifth season we make it to the playoffs.

I wonder why xxxxx and I are still bickering. I will have to analyze this one carefully. We need to get things resolved. Perhaps when we get our trophies, finally, things will clear-up; hopefully. She’s my buddy. Were just blowing off steam I guess, from old-slightly-over-dramatic-events. She will always be welcomed on my team, but if she doesn’t want to join that’s ok too. She’ll always be a Rumble Fish no matter who uses her…..er I mean who team she plays with.

xxxxx says my theme song is the Super Mario Brothers...

My sleeping turtle on my bed

 

Action speaks louder than words…
I hate it when people put words in my mouth. Especially if you did not hear me say it. Words only have a true meaning with an action behind it? If you want to leave something behind, that’s it, it’s a free country, don’t feel bad when you make a hard decision, a lot of people quit or leave things they sometimes cant handle at the moment, but if you feel like a loser or a quitter or you simply made a coastly mistake after doing it don’t blame someone or anyone else for it. Take responsibility for your own actions. Talk is meaningless without action. Action speak louder than words. So on that note

I’ll make it simple…about last monday... this applies to the whole team. If you don’t listen to me, and you are on my team. I wont keep you on my team. I will ask you to ether follow the rules of swimming in my lake or you can go else-were. It is not like I have a real choice. Who is going to respect a captain if he cant control his own players. No captain should keep anybody on there team if they are disrupting the harmony of the team. I don’t care if you are consistently winning or loosing. I have seen players have bad seasons and I have seen players have good seasons. I will not ask you to leave if you are having a bad season. That does not mean I will keep you if you are having a good season as well. I will not tolerate arrogant players. I will not tolerate delusional players on my team. If I have to keep asking you to stay quite and respect the other team mates while they are shooting. I will ask you to leave. If I have one player who is complaining about another player; both being on my team. I will have to weigh the pros and cons and make a decision. Based on the history of both players and a vote of popularity from the team; I will make the final decision. I do not want a week link on my team. Brian is my oldest player/teammate as well as Douglas. These are the two who will help me make a decision if I need cast a vote of keeping a player. If I end up with a co captain, the co captain will help me make a session as well. Unless my co captain is the problem then I will have to make the decision myself. Don’t sit by the table and start loud mouthing woulda-coulda-shoulda while the other teammates are shooting. It does not matter how right you appear to be about a coach or how wrong you are about a coach. If player “A” does not want a coach from player “B” then Player “B” should stay quiet and respect player “A”. I am the captain of Rumble fish. If you are not happy on the team please feel free to leave. I will not cry and smash cookies on the ground or cry over a skinned knee. I don’t judge people and I especially wont judge my game or anybody else’s but I am the captain of Rumble fish and that is not an easy job. I like every one on my team; our team. But…I don’t want ripples in the water. Rumble fish needs calm water to execute a proper xxxxxtory; now, back to my tuna sandwich. Thank you.

xxxxx is calling me sassy..grrrgrggrgggggrrrrrrrrrr.

Douglas did a reading yesterday. D is good. Then his sis went up, she read a very moving story; made me want to yell at everybody who voted for bush.

Cybele is leaving

 

About Tuesday…
I played…I won. Some dude said, “Here come that guy whose gona get Samurai” Samurai Jack I’m called these days. The captain of the other team we played bought every body on both teams ice cream; how can ya-hate a guy like that, you cant. I was pretty cold when I played, it might have been the ice cream. I got lucky on a few shots. The other guy had heart. He had me a few times but missed critical shots. Eric came to watch me shoot; and drink. I corrected some smack the “V” told him Monday night. He looked at me and said, “ How could you, you loser! She “was” a great player, kicking her off was really dumb, you’re a loser William”. Bull shit he didn’t say that. Anyway, I miss Eric; we need to do something wacky one day.
*
Funny thing happened…
When I spoke to xxxxx yesterday on the phone she laugh at me for acting like a little queen on Monday December 12. 2003-9:45pm during the APA pool match taking place in Ace bar; thought I just mention it again. Being she thought it was funny when we spoke about it this morning. What happened that day you ask?
The Story…The Drama…
When xxxxx announced her departure from my team and didn’t not want to tell me why that day. After trying to pull it out of her and all I got was silence. I smashed a bag of Oatmeal-raisin-cookies on the ground as if it was a bottle shattering on the floor; instead of hearing a violent crash you heard muffled crunch instead. Then I fell in front of Joe’s bar and skinned my knee as I was running and crying in despair around the block. The end.
*
I got some people who want to join myteam next season who are pretty dam good.
*

Today was Cybele's last day .We had a privet lunch and said our goodbyes. I am sad.
*
xxxxx says I have changed but not changed. Uh?
She says I never think I am wrong. I don’t believe this is true. Of course not, because I am right. Dhu… So from now on I will not sound like I am right.

1. Eric is 30 years old

2. Evasive means
adj 1: deliberately vague or ambiguous; "his answers were brief, constrained and evasive"; "an evasive statement" 2: avoiding or escaping from difficulty or danger especially enemy fire; "pilots are taught to take evasive action" 3: skillful at eluding capture; "a cabal of conspirators, each more elusive than the archterrorist"- David Kline [syn:

xxxxx tried to sell me a Turtle for 5 bucks.

Yes... Why-thank-you...

Sunday
I have a feeling to learn a new critical shot; or practice the ones I know already. Learn and then for get what you learned, to know with out knowing is the way of the Rabbit-the-Monkey-the-Fox. Develop a natural instinct for the game with practice. Sometimes when I practice with my buddies they think I am trying to make the ball, they don’t realize I am practicing so they tell me why I missed; funny. A good game comes from practice, or at least for me. Develop patience and a clear vision. Understand the environment around your game table and master it. Don’t be judgmental. Give me another Bloody Mary...
*
The APA number/level system is an inadvertent judgment of ones game.
Order and control must be maintained of course; it’s a bar people get drunk. Just to let you know, If I ever judge my game based on the would be skill level system then I would have left the APA already. Give me a Bloody Mary now....

Saw George. I asked if he was looking to start a team; “Hey George! I heard you were looking to start a team? I said to him. This man had no idea what I was talking about, not a clue. Then I said, “xxxxx said you guys were looking to start a team”? He goes “what? No way!” Diana was there as I was talking to G. I looked at her after George said no way and I go and say to Diana. “Could it be he doesn’t know what I am talking about because he is stone cold sober? The Guy was like a whole new person. He even looked at me like he barley knew me; it was scary. His eyes were well slept; meaning none bloodshot and he spoke with coherency. He barley new me and you know something I barley know him. I need a Bloody Mary

I'm not a perfect person
As many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why i need you to hear
I've found a resaon for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You [x4]
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

7:30pm William you….Big-you…Mr. know it all….
Why did you bitch and moan…it’s old news already then again you did not do it alone, did you? It might be the trust issue; it might be. It’s not resolved nether one of us are submitting, I think. I have not spent quality time with my best buddy; but it’ll never happen I think. Personal time is definitely required; I’m dreaming. The issue in witch we departed on bad terms with is still lingering its like a nasty scare after a nasty. Look me in the eye and say it. But that wont happen in a long time’ I hope I am wrong. This issue is not with out its reward but it is definitely a ruff road. Maybe it’s for the best. But I feel so stupid right now and I can’t quit put my finger on why I feel the way I feel. I can’t see her in the face, I’ll get mad; conceded I am maybe? Or just full of too much pride. But it has to be this way; I think. Here I am sitting at the E-bar with an empty stomach and on my third bud and all I can think about is the wild flower. She was very special to me but I cant tell if she really evey belived it. I don’t like to lie and there are way to many lies going on here; from both ends. Perhaps its for the best it stays the way it is. Cause deep down inside, I will never forget that Monday I learned what the APA and my team meant to me.
*
Just a personal feeling..not that I am starting trouble...but.
Some people would rather be used as a number and not a player. I thought about this long and hard and came up with some good rational. There are advantages and disavantagese about being used as a number for team your not really part of. But I think using people in general is quit evil; Bad Karma.
*
I’m a little drunk right now. It’s fun to write a little drunk. You say or write the damnest things.
*
10:05pm I am drunk…I’m coherent though…to bad
I’m wobbly. If I get up I am going to fall over; maybe. 10:10 pm. I didn’t fall when I went to take a pee.
*
10:15 ok now I am bored with my drunkenness. 6 buds.
I think I’ll get something to eat and some coffee.
*
11:19pm. Oh no!!! Aaron called!!! He’s on his way!!! Its drinking time again!!!
11:30 pm. Aaron showed up and we had a few.
1:30am some chick from church shows up and talks to me about god, I just stare. Not 20 minutes later she is making out with a complete stranger at the end of the bar. 3:15am some movie star chicks show’s up.

Part two

 

One and a half pounds.
This is how much me and Aaron ate at the Katez; a lot. Then we went to the bar to play pool. Aaron was playing strong knocking people out. But then slowly Aaron and me started to feel the effects of the food; uhggggg. We were bloated with meat and potatoes. Aaron ate the heavy stuff; pastrami. I ate a lot of turkey. When I told Cynthia me and Aaron ate at the katez she says” Oh, you had a pastrami sandwich? MmmmMMmm.” I said, “ I had turkey” she says “ Turkey! William I didn’t know you were gay? What kind of a fag eats Turkey?” I said. “ A-only-on-Thursday-fag”. The bloated feeling just kept getting worse. Our game turned to pastrami and all I can think about was my bed. Michelle wore a skimpy whity-tighty at the bar; oh-la-la, and there was live music again. It was good but I still kept thinking about sleep.

Bloody-Maries and a few buds can make will a wild boy.
Work was ok, but all I can think about was bloody Maries all day. So I went to the E-bar and drank a few or three or four. Michelle and I made two Bloody Maries, really hot and spicy then the nine o clock bartender came in and made me two more. I stole some flowers from the bar, then it was bud all night till one am. Boy was I piss drunk. My head was spinning and I played pool with out thinking hard 50/50 Fuentes strikes again. Michelle is living on her natural instinct. And Cynthia has finally got her ibook. Sam has a cute little doggy and AJ is getting a big head again. A regular day at E-bar.
*
I stole some beads from Molly, love beads. Maybe we are in love; maybe. Maybe she wants some booty. But then again I am walking into April fools day drunk on Bloody Maries and Bud wiesers.
*
Office incentives for a little booty.
Accepting gifts from someone who wants to sleep with you in witch you have no intentions on sleeping with is wrong and only leads to trouble. You look contemptible and a little selfish and it kinda gives the gift giver the impression that they have a chance of getting you in the sack; unless you plan on giving him some booty In the future. So smoke it up.
