He said, "My Dad told me that the horses at Tampa were a lot smaller than the horses in the big races." I said, "Are you serious?" He said, "Yes, my Dad used to own horses." I said, "Your Dad is completely wrong." We finished the drive in silence.

One of the oddest conversations I have had in a long time.
That sounds like a scene out of "Curb Your Enthusiasm." I picture Larry in his Prius with Richard Lewis riding shotgun.

"You're calling my father a liar? Well phuck you, Larry! He was a great horseman!"
