Could be a good SPA look. Bet you'll never guess who's mustache that is.

I was trying to handicap this Derby and I'm thinking about Tencendur, as big as they come just banging around everything around him and Danzig Moon trying to bite everything around him and then I'm thinking about Doug with the Porn Mustache. I'm a mess. Then I'm thinking about Byk at the Fish Fry. I'm all confused. Then I have to think about nasal strips. I'm going to have weird dreams tonight. Most likely Doug and Byk with nasal strips, porn mustaches and fried fish. Very disturbing.

I have two questions....

What are you smoking? And
Do you have any left??!

Nothing.

Haven't dome that since the 1970's.

Odd question.

It was just a joke, something I've heard asked of folks when they mention a series of odd things. No offense intended.

I used to smoke some weed years ago and I could pick horses, but I couldn't bet them right. Was a disaster. I did that at Garden State years ago, drove me crazy. I'd bet horses to WP and should have done the Exacta or Tri and vice versa.

Gave up the weed about 40 years ago but not sure I'm picking any better. Still do the same dumb stuff. Don't really want to go on the weed, but a bunch of my track buddies do that and we all make those same mistakes.

So I kinda feel bad. I don't have any excuses. However, I've won some and lost some and am OK with that. I've bought every house I've ever owned with winnings from the track. I've paid off every mortgage I've ever had with winnings from the track.

Why stop here? Why not tell us about the time that you rode a Kentucky Derby winner?
