"Pool is like dancing chess."
These are the words of Bob Fancher, Ph.D.
a pool-shooting psychotherapist who wrote
The Pleasures of Small Motions
Mastering the Mental Game of Pocket Billiards
This classic should be read several times
as we grow in our skill and
appreciation of the game.
The brevity of his writing about an infinite subject
is an indication of his brilliance
and his skill with the language,
but it says nothing about his skill as a shooter.
So if you're reading this, Bob,
(or "Doctor" if you prefer, and I respect that)
I hereby invite you to
"paint on green canvas"
(Bob Watson)
here at FastMikie's Fun House
at a date and time of your pleasure
and to join in on a session of

with
FastMikie and Friends"
