Rack 'em!

In case anyone has noticed, I haven't been posting as frequently or rambling as much these last few days. In part, this can be blamed on Yahoo!'s Pool game.

It's a multiplayer eight-ball game sort of like Side Pocket on the old SNES system, but not quite as good.

The gameplay is frustrating sometimes, the programmers' interpetation of the rules of eight ball is dubious and a lot of the players are rude a**holes who tend to leave mid-game or call you a "(expletive) loser" when they win.

Regardless, I'm hooked and I've been playing it a lot lately. If you happen to be there and browsing the game rooms, I'm supermanspaljimmyolsen - aka "Kid Scratch". Bring your own chalk.
