Indian Charlie,you can still read Barry Irwin's comments on the Paulick report.He is always there,and he gets into it sometimes with people there.

You left out all my favorite characters from the two greatest(funniest) internet boards of all time, the Thoroughbred Times and the Daily Racing Form. To me, there was nothing better than reading the rantings of a certain bloodstock agent who was the sole cheerleader for former Santa Anita Derby contender Last Minute Detail. He was reguarly challenged by the wife of another owner who raced horses with some big trainers, Blackthroatedwind, and Fanofthejuiceguys, who also did his best to make that bloodstock agent look ridiculous.

If memory serves, legendary characters such as MajorityWhip, Censorship, SA Fan, Hondo, and many others participated in such battle royales over integrity in racing partnerships, the management of the aforementioned Last Minute Detail, and fradulent bloodstock agents among others.

There was also some crazy woman seemingly associated with the Funny Cide group that absolutely hated Mike Gill.

aaaahhh the good old days.

The Thoroughbred Times board was the best! Fanofthejuiceguys was actually Censorship. His later forum name was created after they banned the word "juice".

It would also be a trainer's wife who would force the closing of the board.

Dixie (blue eyes, speed boys etc.) is a legend.

Dixie and Oracle ABSOLUTELY have earned a spot on this prestigious list. Without them, it is null and void.

I wasn't around those parts for any of that .... but if you lead off a cast of "legendary characters" with Majority Whip ... you have to be a part time scroll wheel salesman to go along with your training gig,

I consider this phrase to be the comic center of nicely crafted list.

He was epic. Prolific as they came but always matter of fact and polite. A super rare combination of traits on message boards!

Google up "Dilan Esper"--that MFer must post in over half the forums on the internet. Seriously.

Thanks!

You know, I always suspected that he had to be either an attorney (most likely) or an engineer, based on how he wrote.

I think your the only lawyer I know of with a personality.

I thought the short stint by "Lovely Laurel" was classic. Stevie had to strike a few of hers from the record.

[chucklestheclown]

On a serious note, My Miss Storm Cat must be the most un-acknowledged, if not under-appreciated, poster in the horsey community. While she professes not to gamble, her dedication, insight and all-around horsemanship make it obvious that if she were to deign to post on mere non-international threads all others would surely have to bow to her superiority. Except me.

The funniest person I've ever met is actually a lawyer.
