I was always kinda proud of those signers.



(my current wife loves 'em.....she laughs and shares stories with friends about my occasional gambling prowess....)

One of my ex-girlfriends, who's very cool, spent her summers in the Hamptons ( obviously without me ) and her friends used to give her a hard time about me being a horseplayer and hanging out at the track. She was very happy when they once snidely asked her how I was doing at the track and she got to tell them I hit a Pick-6 for $141K a few days earlier.

They stopped asking her about me.
