If your grandkids are like mine, they demand total attention. Especially, my grandaughter, age 7. and if she's not demanding total attention, then she's monopolizing the computer watching hip hop dance moves or watching videos on how to make things out of duct tape. Some marketing genius discovered that if you make duct tape with all kinds of designs and colors, then little girls will make bows and purses and wallets and all manner of things out of duct tape.

Anyway, as Colin Raye said in the country song, "that's my story and I'm stickin' to it."

When they were about 10-12 i picked them up from school and when we got to their house i had to race my grandson up the stairs to the computer..Had to tackle him a few times...I had to get to YB to get some bets in and he was in the way.....Now he's built like a pro linebacker and could crush me with a hug..

I'm thinking that all my picks may be a little too popular. That's usually when they run up the track or pay nada, if they win.
