If I don't hit today, I'll be so poor that if McDonalds started selling burgers for a dime all I could do is run down the street yelling, "THAT'S CHEAP, THAT'S CHEAP!"

Tom, I'd love to make it up there. Hopefully I will.

June 21st through the 24th, and then hopefully the last week in July for business (if I get this job I am hoping to get)

I have to thank Andy (Blackthroatwind) for essentially calming me down after I was 4 for 4 and calling him (Andy, this is Tom, WHO, SCAV, WHO, Oh hey man how you are?) and telling me NOT TO HEDGE. RIDE IT OUT he tells me given the situation. As he will probably say, I was absolutely frantic because I had no idea what the hell was going on. It is absolutely amazing feeling. It isn't excitement or happiness, it is a sense of satisfaction, and feeling this, it is a feeling that is like no other. More to come on this as I am filtering through everything and figureing out what is going on, including purchasing that plane ticket to Vegas in June and TOGA in July.

More to come later as I digest all this. Kev was right, I have been on the brink of tears for about the last three hours. Those that are close to me understand why (lots of stupid things) and all those stupid things, ARE CLEAR.

More to come later, and I will upload a file of the GREATEST PICTURE OF ALL TIME

FYI, I have gotten offers to go to stud already..

Agreed, it isn't really about the money when your horse crosses the line in the last leg. The first time I hit one I started screaming so loud they tried to kick me out of the OTB, then I showed the manager the winning ticket she says "you can scream as loud as you want" and had to call the central office for more cash to pay me out, LOL

I'm so happy for you. It's the best feeling in the world.

That's my Boy with the high F.O. Factor....(defined as having the financial stability to be able to tell your boss to F Off)

Straight ballin, that's right. Toga is going to be sick.

Are all of you guys coming up opening weekend?

I'm going to opening weekend at Del Mar, and I WILL hit the pick 6 out there and be ballin' for Toga. Mark it down.

#**198** 05-24-2007, 09:30 AM

Looking back at that sequence it's incredible how much it paid. That's why it's of utmost importance to play a pick-6 when the carryover is that large. Pick 4 for $2 pays barely over $600 and due to the second leg of the pick 6 and the massive pool, it pays bonkers.

Congrats again, you two. Unbelievable that Bigs hit it for what? A $144 ticket? That's like a Jordan game winning shot.

F*cking sweet. Swappy, Sniper, Sightseek, and I will definitely be there. Dr. Dave (docicu) said he may make it as well, and I fully expect Joey (ateam) to make it as well.
