Wow, how nice that I spent the last couple of hours in a saner place. That is no reference to you, I assure you. How silly that someone in their 50's, male or female, would not recognize the sad truth behind the joke you relayed. How different to be somewhere, amongst younger people, where that didn't exist. Everyone played their game. But they know they're not even the norm for their age group, though it's better overall. At 40, I know all too well that 20 years ago a woman wouldn't have beaten a man at pool, or anything else, without it being a deal. Most males, that is. And I still steer clear of playing against men my own age or older. I've found, unfortunately, that it's still a deal. The disappointment I feel when they get huffy makes the game not worth it.
