It's still very listenable just slightly fuzzed. As always thanks ...

Steve,

I noticed more distortion on the stream today than usual (it's usually pretty clean). The Sirius audio was fine.

As I said.. we are preparing to leave the studio for a new location and KC has been sending out parts of the system for reconditioning, etc., in anticipation of the move. Won't sound as good as usual until we get everything back in the new place in July.

I cried my way through the Pearl Jam show as a result.

Default Levine horses get all clear

NJ officials have called Levine with the all clear on his horses for anything they tested them on...

Exactly. They can raid and pull blood until the cows come home. They won't find anything unless the tests are capable of finding the current designer drug du jour or be able to see past the masking agents.

There were no 'designer drugs' involved here..

I wonder what would happen when you combine:

1) an above average intellect

2) a indefatigable work ethic

3) long term experience in the game

4) a genuine love for the game

5) a 'gambler's' understanding of the game


You probably would get a trainer that's a little bit better than that pack of NY trainers who can't quite figure out whether their horses are sprinter or routers or prefer dirt of turf; and thus spend YEARS going repeatedly from one to the other. Clearly, there's the OTHER SIDE of this.

I have no problem assuming that Levine is above average and on a hot streak.

It's not that I know more. Did anyone really think a guy like Bruce Levine was going to use EPO? It's silly. He's been in the game 29 years and NEVER HAD A SINGLE VIOLATION. He's winning at a big clip.. knows that there's scrutiny.. and someone thought he'd jeopardize a 3 decade-long career using something like that? Just didn't make sense. If he is actually 'pressing the envelope', he's doing it the old-fashioned way...

How exactly do we know this? Isnt that the whole problem with the "designer drugs"? That they cant test for what they dont know about? Anybody caught with EPO is just plain stupid. Balco has shown how easy it is to alter an existing drug at the molecular level, render it undetectable and still keep its potency.

Not to get off subject, but the entire thread can't help but remind me of this.... Jim Carrey as Vera De Milo:

http://www.evtv1.com/player.aspx?itemnum=718

On a serious note, you only have to look at the power of the pharmaceutical industry to know they have much more money to throw at government than anyone else does and if they see a profit, they'll do anything to protect it. Just ask your grandmother how many pills she takes.

I've heard mention an idea that having the vets work for the track and keep up and be responsible for what they use. Why is that idea not being brought forward.

Finally, enjoy the clip. It's one of my favorites.
