No. AD beat Thunder Gulch for fun in the Futurity. I remember it well, I was 8. My bowling team that year was named Thunder Gulch....
He also beat Timber Country in another race. He was really good at 2.

Of course he is. Or he's fishing for attention.

Or both.

It's hard to tell sometimes with him.

I had a tough day at work, so my brain is a little fried.

I actually had to install a mouse for a woman for her computer today. The first one didn't work, so she went out and bought a second one at Staples. That one didn't work either, so she brought the computer back to us to prove to us it wasn't her.

Of course, it was her. She just didn't give the computer enough time to boot up to see her wireless mouse for the first time. She freaked that she couldn't move the mouse around while it was still loading Windows.

In the meantime, her husband berated her and called her a stupid bitch in front of me and another customer.

If I'd have had a pair of ice picks handy, I'd have perforated my ear drums.

Hence, my excuse for not being able to process RHT's retardedness tonight.

That made me long for that woman who bought her TV in Massachusetts so that she could get Massachusetts channels in New Hampshire, then didn't understand why her idea didn't work.

Next time you try thinking, send us all some aspirin first please.

Or some weed.

Oxycontin?

Pletcher's half to Bluegrass Cat was very impressive in breaking his maiden, but I've already seen posts on other boards declaring him:

1) Pletcher's best horse
2) A horse that just did something horses just don't do
3) A horse that is unrivaled in talent
4) The next Curlin
5) The easiest winner of the FOY, because those horses have no hope

All this despite the fact that most of the better horses from last year have yet to make an appearance. Does every talented horse bring out a reaction like this?

I'm sure Pletcher will push this horse to make the Derby, no doubt
