Re: How old are you?

I'm 28, but my perspective on time is screwed up, so I don't know what I feel like.

I'm the oldest in my group of friends, but I sometimes feel like the youngest. -shrugs-

New Houston Go Meet Up (TBA)

I'm considering fronting the cash to procure equipment for a go club being held in the west Houston, TX area.

The two main go clubs in houston meet too far away from me, and even though West Houston is about 10 minutes

Re: 21st Century Dictionary of Basic Joseki, Vol. 2 release

Re: Recent Purchase

Yeah, I don't think it can be kaya as kaya has that very distinctive yellow quality to it.

Re: Recent Purchase

It was used, and assuming it was katsura (as the pictures looked kaya, but I couldn't be sure) I bid 1200 for it.
Which is cheaper than a brand new board. It has dents and wear on it, but as far as I'm concerned that's a bit of

Recent Purchase

I recently made a purchase on ebay. a 17cm thick go table with legs.

Would anyone be able to tell me the type of wood used to create this table if I were
able to provide pictures of it?

I appreciate your help.
