went to grab a few drinks at hard reef with ko-chan the other night. we were sitting down watching surf vids when i heard somebody say, “where’s kirby”… i looked and it was this big marine holding a pool stick calling me out. huh? i was like “oh no, not again”…. haha. earlier, ko-chan had written my name on the chalk board for a turn in pool. so it was me against this guy that was running the table all night. so the competitor in me came out. i took my jacksan face off and focused on the ball. then there it was, eight ball side pocket. winner…. this was the moment… i stole this photo of islandaroma’s blog. thanks yoshimi-san for giving my blog a plug…
