Topic: Still alive, but selling table
|
|
|
Hey I changed email providers so had to change my account. Given my performance at the last draw I decided to change my name 
Actually had a minor heart attack a few weeks ago. I'm doing fine, except the meds make me dizzy. Turns out they're not required so I expect to be better soon.
Ironically I was eating better and exercising starting a couple months before it happened. Apparently it had been in the works for about four years though. Probably from the foosball, j/k.
I need to get more fit though, so I'm making room in the basement for some equipment. Selling my table for $500. I found it quite suitable for practicing 5-rod and shots, etc. It feels close to a tournament table, but is a little different. It's a Dynamo home model with Tornado men. Some photos on the craigslist ad:

I've played on it and it is a nice table.
Get well soon Richard.

Take care of yourself Ricardo. Don't be telling me about heart attacks - I'm within spitting distance of your age.

Hi Richard......I'm glad to hear that your doing "fine". Have a speedy (and complete)recovery.
You are probably correct that it was the foos that did it...that is, the LACK of foos over the last few years....everyone needs their escape
p.s. we can play the over-50 together soon.
gerry

hope ur feelin bettr, you should use my technique for health, everytime i score a slop goal, i reward myself with a sip of red wine.
|
|
|
if u stop comin out to foosball, at least u can live vicariously by watching my meteroic rise in the ranks and just pretend its u doing it.
ps. ask tuano about my new 5 and 3. I'm sure he had plenty of time to think about it last nite wilst he was tossin and turnin in his sleep wakin up with a pillow soaked with tears. right now he doesnt know that he doesnt know but soon enuff he'll know that he knows and that's what I call "the rude awakening"

Robbie, since the episode I have thought more and more of the leadership and charismatic qualities you display here.
But I still can't think of any.
|
|
|
I just can't stop thinking about how much red wine Robbie must be drinking. Maybe it's time to buy some stock in the wine business.
|
|
|
Don't think I've met you before but glad to hear you're doing well. I may be interested in the table, what's your phone number?
|
|
|
I sent you an email btw via Craigslist.
|
|
|
Heh Richard-be sure to take care of yourself buddy!
|
|
|
Not playing Robbie in a game of foosball is your first step to a speedy recovery. Get well soon and avoid those rock concerts...
|
|

I went over to Richards house last night and played a couple games on his table, feels surprisingly similar to a tornado aside from the slightly lighter rods. Now I get to practice slop shots and be just like Robbie. Now to purchase some wine....
|
|
|
the key to a healthy heart is consistent crap goals from, every rod and every man including the score markers.
|
|
|
Got the table setup in my basement, practiced for about an hour and lovin it. Thanks for the great table Richard, hope to see you drop in at the Soho sometime.
Onur

Miss ya Richard. Take care of yourself.

Next time you see me I'll be a deadly handsome man with an entourage, pimp shoes and a big hat with a feather in it. I'm just saying.
|
|
|
You are becoming Robbie? That's scary. Well, except for the deadly handsome part.
|
|
|
brutally handsome not deadly
|
|
|
Brutal works for me - it's the handsome part we have trouble associating with the suppergifted1.
|
|
|
they use a picture of my face to cure lesbians, one look and they realize what there missing. they never go back to girls again.
|
|
|
Oh yeah, it's not everyday lesbians realize they were missing the gift of blindness.
|
|
|
Maybe they should watch you three bar in inaction. Then it'll really hit home.
|
|
|
All they need is Robbie's 3" bar?
|
|
|
As luck would have it, my hot water tank decided to spring a leak so my entire basement had to be cleared out and taken to storage, including the table. Construction is expected to take 1-2 months, but I'm guessing it's going to be more along the lines of 3-4 months =\
Damnit!
