Was texting an ex-coworker, he has a small interest in racing.

I have an acquaintance who has asked me about racing since the Derby. She really wanted to bet California Chrome and pestered me till I gave in... took her damned 60 dollars, played him across the board for her (yeah I know, I know but this was what she wanted. ).

So I'm reading my email this morning and there's one from her, can I drop off her money (?).

Called her and said ummm excuse me he was off the board.

She said she knew she'd only be getting her $60. back like I was the moron.

So this new wagering rule whereby we get back whatever we bet... when did that go into effect cause I missed the memo.

Unbelievable.

As I didn't have a reserved seat, I ended up standing near some older ladies who earnestly explained to me why racing horses at 2 was so harmful to them. The one lady said she knew this because she was involved in greyhound rescue for ten years and so knew all about the problems in thoroughbred breeding.

These people affect things like our government, schools. They drive on our roads. The level of stupid and/or willful ignorance out there is astonishing sometimes. It makes you very afraid to realize how much you have to battle.

On that note, here is the single greatest comment made about the race:

You'll have to click on the image once or twice to get the type large enough to read, but it's worth it.

Over 1400 retweets. I really hope some of those were 'can you believe this?'

Have really enjoyed this thread - that being said am really starting to dread work on Monday morning and the queries about Sheriff Cogburn that are surely going to surface, uh hope for once the entire day is booked FULL of meetings ...

It is a really funny blurb, though.

No conservatives are to busy convincing idiots that they are looking out for them while positioning themselves to collect no matter the outcome. Liberals are busy convincing idiots that they are looking out for them while positioning themselves to collect no matter the outcome.
