Tom came up to the NERBS booth this weekend saying that thread art was out, and showed us a really cool hand painted egg done by an artist with huge skilz...he was just bustin' our chops, but it got me thinking regardless. I did this mess in '86 on a train to Philly to see YES at the spectrum, do some skateboarding, and visit my sister. The Eggshell Art got me thinking about my cast.

Must have been a long ride. Most people read a book or sleep off a hangover from the night before. Unfortunately, i missed the egg.

Billy...this was done quite a few years before I even new there was such a thing as a custom rod, or thread art...the egg reminded me of this cast jammed in a box in the attic.........kind of weird.

Make note of the "custom" ground notch near the forefinger where the pool cue use to slide...it was like playing on a fixed point constantly and knowbody noticed my winning percentage....the mind never stops Fred.
