If Farah had listened a bit instead of interrupting, he might have learned something.

George Balabushka was a renowned cue maker back in the day. Now gone, documented examples of his work are quite valuable.

The "strings on it" Farah mentioned was indeed original Courtland wrap...also known as Irish linen wrap. Courtland was a linen fishing line maker. No longer in biz, but Irish linen wrap is used to this day in various colors. If one can find a spool of the original Courtland in the proper color and size, he's found gold.

Rogan is quite the character, able to hang out in many areas and be accepted...the car guy world and the pool world are two of them.

Here he is at a pool tournament doing an improve of 5 times USA Open champ Earl Strickland...Earl is now in his late 50's, early 60's, still able to play at a high level when his head is right. (strong language warning)
