Just got a barn burner a couple minutes ago here Hooves...Was completely silent and BOOM, lighting and thunder and then a friggin downpour.

The hilarious part about it was the comedy c0ckapoo was chasing the cat around the house and both of them jumped like 10 feet the air, completely out of nowhere....pretty awesome

Weather says showers this am, then cloudy. So, hard to say ... unless you're with Scav where the ominous Black Cloud always is present.

I actually do not need crutches....Went to Sports medicine guy this morning

30% tear in my calf muscle, guy said I will start walking normal soon but no athletic activities for 8-12 weeks...I asked him about vegas and the specific activity I REALLY want to partake in and he said she can only be on top. BEST EXCUSE EVER

"Yo Honey, I blew out my calf muscle so you are going to have to do all the work"

I LOVE IT

Have fun, Tom. Weather should be nice. If you're a freakin armadillo. Last time I was in Vegas, I went at the last minute. Stayed at the Boardwalk Holiday Inn, next to Monte Carlo. Talk about Comedy! The place has a giant clown face on the front and the main doors are inside the clown's mouth. All class!

Still reeling from Calder's 9th race yesterday. I'm at the track. I like only 3 horses... the two 7/5 shots (6,11) and the 3 at 25-1. Thers's tons of scratches and only 6 horses. I'm up a couple hundred. AS posttime nears, I'm really liking the 3.

So I play tri's:

$40 3/6,11/6,11
$40 6,11/3/6,11
$10 6,11/6,11/3

So, I've got $180 in. It comes 6/11/3, but if you get a chance, watch the race. It looks like the 3 is gonna run 1-2 until real late. Anyway, the thing pays $69.20 for $2. So, I'm getting back $346.00. Ok, not bad, though I'm in line to cash and a bit p.o.'d I didn't spread a bit better.

So I go to cash my ticket. The teller, a 60ish blue haired gal, runs my tiket through and puts $345 in front of me. I don't touch the money. I look at her. Then I look at the money. Then I take off my glasses, raise my eyebrows and look at her again. The rest goes like this:

Her: What's your problem?
Me: What did that ticket pay?
Her: I gave you $345.
Me: I know what you gave me. What did that ticket pay?
Her: I gave you $345.
Me: OK, you know and I know the ticket is worth $346 and you gave me $345, right?
Her: What's your problem?
Me: You owe me $1.
Her: (Getting angry) I don't have any singles.
Me: I'll wait while you get some
Her: I can't do that. (At this point, the teller next to her, an older guy named "Joe" is starting to laugh pretty hard)
Her: Joe, WTF is your problem!!??!! (now I'm laughing)
Me: Look, it's getting late.
Her: Well, I still don't have any singles.
Me: Maybe Joe can give you change!
Joe: Sure I can!
Her: (turning to Joe) Shut The F@$% Up! (Joe and I laughing uncontrollably now)
Joe: She's been cheating people for years.
Me: Look, I can make change. I have singles.
Her: No. I did the right thing.
Me: I'd like to see your supervisor.
Her: He's busy.
Joe: No he's not, he's right there! (Joe calls over the supervisor)
Sup: What's the problem?
(I explain what's going on and tell the Supervisor that I find it difficult to understand how this teller does not have any singles, that she owes me $1 and I'd like my money so I can leave. Joe's laughing, I'm cracking up. She hands me my $1. )
Sup: Sorry about the misunderstanding (Supervisor walks away)
Joe: Misunderstanding my ass!
Me: Thanks Joe. Here, Have a sandwich on me! (I hand Joe $5).
Her: A@#hole!
Me/Joe: (Laughing)

Next time I go I think I'll bet twenty $2 show tickets and as her to cash them separately. But, of course, only if Joe is there.

Great story! I hate it when tellers try to skim a few bucks off me too. It's ridiculous.

Thats a great story STS. There are a couple at Calder like that. I was there yesterday also, maybe that teller was the same one who punched my bet wrong for a different track. They got some of them who are half dead, gotta watch them!
