>I've been lucky enough to have a pool table most of my life. I learned to play pool when I was about 8 or 9 years old. The funny thing is .. even though I'm right handed .. I play left handed. That's because my brother is left handed and I just copied him!!

Isn't that odd. I'm right handed, and the only thing in this world I can do left-handed is to play table-tennis. I learned to play as a kid when my right hand was in a splint. Eventually, I became better with my right hand than my left, but I was still good enough that I could make a few bucks after playing right-handed by using the phrase, "Ok, 10 bucks, and I'll play left-handed."

Up here it's snooker tables and they're 12x6. My eyes are no longer good enough to see through the mists to the other end.
