This guy buys a pool table for $73K (!).

Scratches it by using the wrong balls, and claims that he wasn't told about the possibility of damage.

Sues for $219K.

Why not?

Right on cue, Mik. Right on cue. Chalk that one up to being around here for a long time.

I feel so responsible for this ....

Let's see, I guess it would take some balls to weigh in here, but I have to earn my stripes, even if I must kick and scratch to find a good solid one.

Yep. You could have banked on it.

Got this thing in my pocket. It was a great run, though.

Speaking of which: Foreigners are a lot like cue balls; The harder you hit 'em, the better English you get out of them.
