Sarah Rousey – Superstar!

2010 January 7

How proud are we of Sarah Rousey right about now?  It looks like Billiards Digest will be kicking off the new year in style, because our Keeper of the Dawg is on the cover of the January 2010 issue!

Sarah Rousey - Billiards Digest January 2010

Everyone here at PoolDawg just couldn’t be happier for Sarah.   She’s been such a wonderful representative and ambassador for our company.  Plus, how many people can you think of that would willingly run around with a ceramic dog tucked under her arm?

If you’re in town for one of the WPBA’s tour stops, be sure to stop by and root for Rousey!  First stop will be at the Viejas Casino in San Diego for the WPBA San Diego Classic.

Once in a Blue Moon…

2009 December 30

It has come to my attention that on New Years Eve we will be graced with a full moon! If that wasn’t special enough, this particular full moon will actually be a blue moon. The moon won’t actually be a different color. A blue moon just means that there is an extra full moon so instead of the normal 12; we will have 13 this year. Blue moons come around every two-to-three years so if you miss this one you are going to have to wait quite a while to see the next one.

Coincidentally, here at Pooldawg, we just received a top-of-the-line work of billiards art in the form of a Southwest Custom pool cue. Normally, if you wanted to get a Southwest Custom cue, you would have to get on a list and patiently wait for your cue to be made. Currently the wait is somewhere around 5 years so if you have always wanted a Southwest but don’t want to wait a Blue Moon or two, look no further.

Recovering From The Holidays

2009 December 29

The holiday season is officially over, so we’re all slowly recovering from the onslaught of craziness that is the holiday season. I wanted to give a special thank you to our two holiday helpers who came in to help out with phones, orders, packing, box making and just about everything else you can think of.

First to help out was our longtime buddy, Samm Diep.  For the second year in a row, Samm came in after Black Friday to pitch in wherever she was needed including making an obnoxiously large and unstable box structure in my office (we were sharing space).  She stayed until December 16th, at which point we brought in the closer, Megan Ihle to wrap up the season.

Unfortunately, this is probably going to be the last year that Megan helps us out during the holidays.  She’ll be shuffling back off to Wyoming next week to finish up her final year at law school, which means next season she’ll probably be a little too busy to lend a hand.

Thanks again to everyone (both our customers and our employees) for making this the best holiday season yet!  See ya’ll in 2010!
