Lassie Pot the Black!

Dogs that dance, sing on the cellphone, Elvis impressionists, singing plumbers and 9 years old human magnets, is nothing you haven’t seen on television talent shows. But you must see a snooker playing Collie:

Too old to play darts, Blue, the 11-years-old Collie accompanies his owner, a 39 years old building contractor named Geoff, on his frequent visits to the local pub, where his best mate entertains himself in a couple of games of snooker, or pool. Despite, the Britain Got Talent objection, Geoff and Blue still aim to vanquish a lady who can play flute using her nose and a 9-years-old who uses his face to store a set of spoons in the race to the Royal Variety Performance.

Snooker Twilight Stories

The end of the 2008 World Snooker Championship is an excellent timing to review a few of the latest snooker pool stories.

The first one is a bit trivial – the garbage (or rubbish as it is called at the homeland of the snooker) behind a snooker club in Eastwood was burnt by a group of hooligans, and a smart commenter suggested to rename the venue “The Green Blaze” instead of “The Green Baize”.
