Win $100 For Your Talents

[SJDinPHX]

On the subject of pool,
No one was so cool,
Even those with the custom cue sticks,
Playing many a year
On the road, it was clear
Came the man they called San Jose Dick!
Kicking ass, taking names
Every woman was the same
Taking all of his twelve inch thick.**.

How's this one, CB :

Buffalo Brain..Please edit your post (as above...please refrain from coarse language) We have ladies on here..**Besides, I ain't cuttin' another two inches off for no woman...

PS..You were just my sister's snot nose kid,(too young to understand) when I was forced to have my extremely painful
** Penile Reduction Surgery..

PPS..RBL (CB as you call him) has been eternally jealous ever since that day in the shower at the gym, and he saw my original..blah, blah, (before PRS)...blah, blah....That is why he often calls me a "freak"..

 

[SJDinPHX]

I Stand Corrected!

I Stand Corrected!

To all the "Ladies" I apologize, (that includes CB)
To Uncle Dick, I vaguely remember Mom mentioning that surgery, OWWWW!

PS: Uncle Dick, ooops, there I go again, Uncle Richard I hope CB was alot better shooter than he is at composing 7-line "Formatted" prose!
Will be at the office after 4 for one (or two)!

Traditional limericks have often been on the bawdy side, and I guess Buffalo's poem falls almost into the category of limerick, so.... In the event anyone is actually offended, drop me a note -- I will not reveal who you are. Who knows, maybe it will be my wife

..............When Two Giants Play..............

On a bright and sunny day, somewhere near San Jose

Nearly everybody came to watch two giants play

Each of them was ready after waiting all these years

Putting all their cash up, stilling all their fears

One of them would surely lose, it's always been that way

Cause only one can be the best, that's why two giants play

Knocking on the door of greatness as they had so many times

Each of them were ready, both of them were primed

That's how it's always been, every time two giants play.




To all: I wrote this two years ago and now I offer you an opportunity to win $100 doing the same thing. I am offering $100 to anyone who can write a ditty in the same form as this one.

If it comes down to it then members will just have to vote on the best one. It must concern one-pocket, onepocket.org., a one-pocket player or a story concerning all three. I suppose I will have to break any ties.

Get out your pencils, pens, (Ducky get out your hammer & chisel) and get to writing.

This contest will run till midnight on Halloween, that gives you all one month and 16 days.

Good luck to each and all

Dennis

Hey Vaquero Dennis ! Have you recovered from that Sunny smackdown yet?
Thanks for realeasing me. I love you for that.

Often in the still of night,
Newbies type away with sheer delight,
Expecting some nugget of knowledge,
Perhaps most should have just gone to college.

Others more savvy and gifted,
Communicate and brag to feel uplifted.
Knowing their game just isn’t enough…
Enlightening others is high on their list,
Thinking we are all lucky to be in their midst.

Nice job with the ditty, the last line really made me laugh.

Nice job Clare. OnePocket.org = advanced studies in One Pocket, but field work is required

On a lighter note...

On a lighter note...

On the pavement down on the deck
Never drew a legal paycheck
Everyone said a waste of his gifts
Perhaps it was just the lure of the grift
One Satchel was fine but a bit too slow
Cards big fun and fair money bestow
Keenly aware of morality and law
Edging back, pool not so slow after all
This is this that is that, all as sure as a six-ace flat.

Dennis, you're drawing a crowd. Here's another early entry, with still six weeks to go.

Opposite styles,
None the same,
Everybody can play this game.

Pinch it or punch it,
Open the stack?
Careful, son, you can’t go back.
Know all the angles,
Each kick and kiss.
There’s only one game played like this!

By the way, has anyone heard from Greg lately?

On the rail, jacked to the ceiling
Never a worse leave, head is reeling
Early move caused it, saw it coming
Pick a door, consider running
One more problem besides the jack
Can the air barrel help to turn it back
Kerchief out, sweat flowing free
Every railbird, 'glad it's not me'
Truth was: dumped backer's bills a-peeling.

Once upon a time
Never to be repeated
Everyone agreed

Position of cue ball and shot selected
Oh my Oh my
Can you beleive it??
kNot one dissenter
Even Eddie
Thats all folks

 

[RedCard]

Out of '64 he came
Never concise and calling names
Evidence Eddie threatened to scan
Put it up or cap the can
One good year it's now apparent
Can't wait to see how long he'll share it
Known to all that glorious year
Even now it brings a tear
This I know, I'm not to blame.

Many are good. The above is my personal favorite.

Once upon a midnight dreary
Not a shot to ponder clearly
Every angle, bank and shot,
Plan, and escape were clearly naught.
Off the rail, I heard a sneer
Clearly trapped, no shot I fear.
Keep it simple, shoot it straight
Escape the trap, he'll need some weight.
Trick and trap, its plain to me, all I did was foul you see..

I believe we have a frontrunner, I like it Bille and I'm sure that Edgar would like it also .

Well, I changed my vote. That was outstanding.
