pelagius defeats palestinian champion!

In a stunning display of controlled power, or outrageous luck at least, I actually succeeded in taking a frame off my friend Issa. I should probably mention that he gives me 4 blacks start, he was breaking in a brand-new cue at the time, and I scored several quite remarkable flukes. Nonetheless, a win is a win, and I can feel justifiably proud of my minor achievement. In all fairness I should say that I played at my (miserable) best, scoring several breaks in the teens and playing some good safety shots too. So it wasn't a totally sham victory. I feel now, however, that he won't be giving me any more easy wins. He has his face to think of, after all, and we all know how important that is to an Arab...
