Were you a winner or loser this year?

[GPK]

Down on the year...not sure how much. But on a more positive note, I practiced an infinite amount more patience this year at the windows than ever before. So all in all, I am pleased with the year I had. Just trying to continue the learning process.

Kev- You lost enough that last weekend of Saratoga to feed a 3rd world country. Dont think I have forgotten about you throwing chairs and slamming your fist at that simulcast place! Not to mention asking me for a quarter so you could buy a piece of cardboard pizza.

For a second there I swore we were twins separated at birth

K,
If you like Redd Foxx, you owe it to yourself to find and listen to a CD by a guy named Rudy Ray Moore. Your life will never be the same.

it's great stuff. He's a cross between Richard Pryor and Biggie Smalls. 70's stuff. The Godfather of Rap. Find a CD with the track "ABCs" on it. Or, if you can download it, it's certainly worth a dollar. Money back guarantee.

Back in the 1970s, my brother and I were selling raffle tickets for little league. We were going door to door in our neighborhood. We rang the doorbell of a house about two blocks away and you won't believe who answered the door and was renting the house. It was Demond Wilson who played Lamont Sanford on Sanford and Son. Me and my brother were thrilled. We were huge Sanford and Son fans. Wilson was really nice to us. He bought around $10 or $20 worth of tickets. We were talking about if for a week.

Sanford and Son was such a gret show. The whole cast was great. There were some people that weren't on every episode but that were on every once in a while and they were hilarious. I'm talking about people like Julio, Grady, Aunt Esther, Bubba, Rollo, etc. What a great show. It was truly a classic.

Nice story....!

I didn't like the show that much when it first came on the air, but it sure grew on me. I really liked Grady! And Red Foxx was far more talented and accomplished than my kid mind realized at the time.

"Barney Miller" was another classic fave of my mine from the same era.

Just to bring this back to horse racing, "Nick" from Barney Miller was a regular on episode reader of the DRF....

The creator of Barney Miller was Danny Arnold. He made millions of dollars from that show. He was a big horse owner out here. He had a ton of horses back in the 1990s. He died about 10 years ago. I used to be very friendly with his two sons but I haven't see either one of them in a few years.
