Also interesting that no one took flyer on Steve Asmussen's horse, Stellar Tap, to win his record setting position of all time leading trainer in America. It was almost a no brainer but . . . almost??? Patty and I talked to him several times, briefly of course, wishing him luck in his earlier racing days Lone Star Park. He always stopped and responded to us in a congenial way.
Sure glad he got a real haircut ![]() :

If I ever come back this way again as some seem to think we do, I want to have Steve Asmussen's hair or may Jim Acosta. My own hair vacated my head long ago and it was so terrible and frizzy, I wasn't even upset. Some of you that watch the Fox broadcast probably caught the golf cart interview between Steve and Jonathan Kinchen about hair and other things. Kinchen, I think is a positive addition to the show.

What hair I have left is gray. I think it started turning when I reached 40. At one time I also had a beard and mustache. Funny thing about that was my beard and mustache was reddish or blondish which did not match the hair on the top of my head. Can't tolerate a beard anymore. Itches too much. Glad those days when people had bigger hair, side burns, beards and such seem to be over. At least for a while until it comes around again as everything seems to do.

I still have my mustache and probably always will as I wouldn't recognize the stranger in the mirror, if I did away with it, but just saying a full beard has become an uncomfortable thing to me. Don't know how I was ever able to tolerate one when I was younger, but lots of things change as we age. As for the FBI look, I was never in to that. The place I worked, had a dress code, but I always ignored it and usually wore jeans and T shirts to work. Eventually, the powers that be came over to my way of thinking and did away with the dress code.

It's always intriguing how our conversations meander to all sorts of interesting topics. I tried growing a mustache once as an act of independence. While I was serving in the Army [1970 or so], I had a temporary duty assignment that attached me to a German missile unit that was stationed on the island of Crete as part of a NATO exercise. While we had military duties to perform, we didn't have the same military discipline that I had been used to and I took that 6 week assignment as an opportunity to grow a mustache. It was in many ways more of a bother than it was worth, but it did make me look older [I had a baby face and was asked for proof of age in bars until I was in my 30's. Now I'd generously tip anyone who asked
]. Kept it for a few years thereafter but I guess I just got tired of trying to keep it trimmed evenly. I'm just as glad that Ruff and I have never met in person. Her "YUCK" description pretty much summed me up every working day of my professional career, when dress down day meant leaving the vest on my 3 piece suit at home. The things you need to do to make a living and support a family. I've tried to compensate for that since retirement by wearing shorts and a polo or t shirt in summer and a sweater and jeans in the winter. |
