Question by chickenmcnuggz: Beer pong on a pool table?
i'm having a new years party with my friends and i, but i don't have a ping pong table in the basement i can use to play pong on or any non absorbing flat surfaced table. no, i cannot play upstairs, i am supposed to keep the party downstairs so the kitchen table is not an option.
is it possible to still play beer pong on a pool table or should i get something to cover it? if so, what should i use to cover it? would it be better to just invest in a cheap folding table, if there even is such a thing as an inexpensive folding table?

Definitely cover it. The felt will soak up the beer, and trust me beer will be spilled. This will cause nasty stains and smells. Unhinge a door and throw it over top of the pool table. Also cover the pool table with plastic just to be safe.

the dress and top are adorable! great save on the vintage fabric.
the fabric storage looks pretty. however, i would be concerned about using cardboard to store the fabric. cardboard is highly acidic. that acid can leech onto the fabric leaving either holes or nasty stains. also, having the fabric exposed to daylight can cause fading. some fabrics will fade very, very quickly. it looks so pretty to have all the fabric visible, however, i keep mine in plastic tubs in a closet. the fabrics are protected from fading and dust.
perhaps you are different than i and actually use your fabric quickly.

Oh, my!! You need to get Jim a pool cover like ours. It's more like a trampoline stretched across than a moat
That way the wildlife just walk across and don't leave gifts. The snow and rain go through and leaves blow off. It's pretty slick.
Kelly, I love this blog! I am so entertained by your stories. You are great with words!!! Keep up the great work. Also love the pics of the kids. They can't be that old. We're certainly not getting any older!

Do you remember that this pool table was in the upstairs of the house on Timber Lane in Rosenberg?? Well, this picture was taken at my house in South Carolina, and it's the same pool table because Mom SHIPPED me the pool table when she sold that house. I had to rent a storage unit to put all the stuff she sent. The pool table was bigger than my condo!

Love your references to "Under the Tuscan Sun".
Several of my girlfriends and I have what we call "Under the Tuscan Sun" moments; when you're having an outdoor get together with friends in the garden or you're at someone's graduation and you almost step out of the action for a moment and you look around at everyone and you think, "This may not be exactly the life I planned, but it's a perfect life for me, right now, in this moment."
On several ocassions, in the midst of a party, my friends and I will look at each other and say out loud, "It's an Under the Tuscan Sun moment."

...using your example: $100 of taxpayer funds subsidising a loan to help me fence my (imaginary, come on: I live in the capital) pool, rather than the many $10,000′s in a futile attempt to resuscitate my neighbour’s kids plus funeral and ongoing counselling costs for the parents.
Seems eminently reasonable, given it's the taxpayers' representatives requiring generic "you" to fence your pool to cover for parents who can't be arsed keeping an eye on their kids. Got any unreasonable examples?]]>

7. There's a man on 43rd street in Manhattan, a block away from grand central station. Every day this guy sets up a table, and puts out cardboard boxes full of unopened plastic packages. Future Cardboard Gods, I guess you could call them. This block isn't particularly tourist-filled, as they'd run towards the 'I Heart NYC' stores or be too busy glancing up to see the Chrysler building tower over Grand Central to notice a simple folding table cluttered with boxes and boxes of cards.
It's the office guys who stop. It's hard not to, when an unopened silver package of 15 cards has Ken Griffey Jr. on it's cover with '$3.50 or 2/$5' scribbled on it in black marker glisten shines up at you.
That guy is a priest. And that folding table is an alter for the Cardboard Gods. =)

Hi Coach,My Kid id 4.2 years old. I have a ping pong table home. I want to teach my kid this sport. Although I have started with that, I want to know a systematic manner to teach him.I started with an exercise of rolling the TT ball sitting opposite to him and on the table. He uses only his back hand to roll it back to me. is this how kids start?Also please let me know some techinques how to teach him ball control and balance with bat.Thanks in advanceShiva
