charismatic also would have missed the derby had there been different rules. what, there would have been no derby winner that year had he been left out? or mine that bird this year? horses get left out every year. the fact that on occasion a horse wins who may have been excluded doesn't reinforce anything except the adage that every dog has its day.

and no, i didn't read it in its entirety. i have james joyces ulysses on the shelf for when i want to read long winded writing.

If you didn't read it how do you know it's long-winded? Because I wrote it? Or because your idols mocked it and you desperately want to be part of their clique?

I wouldn't be cheerleading about a horse that would have been hammered worse if QR and/or IWR was in this race. He had everything he could do to hold off the 3rd and 4th place finisher and bumped one of them quite hard in doing so. All and all I think the horse still sucks and his backers shouldn't be chest thumping over that performance or writing a thesis about it either.

What about asking serious questions about the nature of the debate? Are you as opposed to that as you are to my "cheerleading" and "chest thumping"?
