Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Did You Miss These Pool Table Facts

By Athena Hunter


Not all pool tables are created equal, the price often dictates the quality. You may be wondering if it is worth it to spend a lot on a high quality pool table. It is our personal opinion that it is definitely worth it. If you plan to play on it and take care of it, then a good quality table will offer a lifetime of enjoyment and a good playing experience. You aren't likely to find a substitute for quality. We will give you some food for thought where pool tables are concerned in this article.

As you know your pool table is an investment you want to last, and it will f you learn how to take proper care of it. Keep chalk away from your table. It will be inevitable that some of the chalk will fall onto the felt when you do that. This chalk residue will eventually cause damage to the felt material. First, you will not be able to remove the chalk once it becomes embedded into the cloth. The chalk can cause tiny tears in the cloth over time. Too much of this will require you to replace the table material, or felt as it sometimes is called.

Slate makes for the best table beds, though you can find them made from other materials as well. The WPA sets guidelines for tables eligible to be used in tournaments, and these must use slate beds that have a thickness of at least one inch. A professional pool table must also conform to other specifications, such as the flatness, or tolerance of the bed.

Pool tables with slate beds that are under an inch thick are, of course, sold for casual and home use. Cheaper pool tables may use wood or another material for the table bed rather than slate.

Pool tables come in a variety of sizes and styles to accommodate the different billiard games that can be played. We are talking about specific types of games. Russian pyramid pool, Asian four ball and bumper pool are just a few of the different varieties you can find. You can also find completely original billiard tables that have their own particular shape and style. These games and tables are mainly for standard pocket billiards. Whereas a regulation table is a standard rectangular shape, though, these unconventional tables may be any type of shape you can imagine, from circular to triangular. In the U.S., bumper pool isn't considered that strange, since tables of this type are so common. Very often you will see bumper pool tables in places like recreation centers. There is a massive amount of accessible data online that pertains to pool tables of all kinds. If you are researching because you are interested to buy a table, then you will benefit from learning as much as you can. We kindly advise that you purchase the greatest quality you can contentedly manage to pay for. The logic for doing this is simply because they cost a good deal of money, and a superior quality pool table should last you a really long time.
