I love playing O'Sullivan. It is a bit of a role reversal from when I used to play Alex Higgins.
Alex Higgins was my hero, so to play in Belfast, at the superb Waterfront Hall, is very special to me.
People often talk about George Best and Alex Higgins as two similar personalities... but the truth is that Best did not like Alex.
People fell in love with Alex Higgins, a working-class fellow from the back streets of Belfast. That's what brought the game alive.
No Alex Higgins, no snooker.
Women under phallocratic rule are confined to the role of vessels/carriers, directed and controlled by men. Since that role is the basic base reversal of the very be-ing of Voyaging/Spiraling women, when we direct our own Crafts/Vessels we become reversers of that deadly reversal.
Someone threw a petrol bomb at Alex Higgins once and he drank it!
It meant so much to me lifting the Alex Higgins Trophy at Goffs.
Maureen O'Sullivan did 'Hannah and Her Sisters' with Mia Farrow, her daughter, but O'Sullivan had a very minor role.
The game really started in 1969 with Pot Black, but in 1970, along came Alex Higgins and the game took off.
There's been a lot of role reversal going on in the band. The roles people have been playing for a long time will always be there, but everybody's willing to try on different outfits.
In 1983, I played in a new tournament called the Professional Snooker League. I won eight of my 11 matches, beating Alex Higgins, Jimmy White and Dennis Taylor, among others.
I'd love to play a villain! I always end up playing people that are quite goody-two- shoes. I would love to play someone who is a little bit evil. I think that would be really fun.
I play role-playing games, and I love the concept of leveling up.
We're a role-reversal family in every way possible. And I love that our country has evolved to that. It doesn't matter who makes money, as long as something is rolling in and you're happy.
I used to play role-playing games a lot when I was younger, but once you start an RPG, it takes a lot of time. So I like things like action games you can just pick up and play.
Northern Ireland as a whole is a great snooker country because of Alex Higgins and Dennis Taylor and now of course there is Mark Allen. It's a hotbed of snooker and a place where our sport is always well supported.
