The venue for Saturday will be races 1 through 10 at Belmont and the Queen Elizabeth II from Keeneland added in as the last race of our contest. If Joly or Don would post the threads it would be appreciated since they both have better penmanship than me.

RQ, you had me laughing out loud over your "better penmanship" comment. Throughout elementary school, penmanship was always my lowest grade [let's not get into the "works and plays well with others" grade if you don't mind]. I'm a lefty, and like many leftys write with my hand upside down, thereby always smearing the ink all over the page and the side of my hand. Despite that serious flaw, I'm glad to post the threads for Saturday's contest.

So I recently had to go to the dentist for a cracked molar which I understand has been an epidemic in itself of folks so worried about the pandemic that they have cracked their teeth. Can't say that I was conscious of that worry. Concerned, like anyone else, but not obsessed, but at any rate, I did crack my tooth and it was giving me excruciating pain therefore the visit to the dentist.
She crowned it and I wrote her a check. Other day I received a bill for 60 cents. I figured I had either written the check for the wrong amount or they couldn't read my penmanship which I must admit is pretty terrible. So much so that I can barely decipher it at times. I looked the check up in on line banking. Seemed to be the right amount and even fairly legible. Called the dentist's office. They got a big laugh out of it and blamed their billing software.

The cost of creating and sending a statement for 60 cents was more than the amount due! How silly! Glad it worked out well for you.

Good one, and my left-handed daughter would agree with this assessment!
