MAYBE WE SHOULDA CALLED IT

CAL-AFORNIA DREAMIN!

Congrats On A Ruff Tuff Day .

Thanks. I really wanted to play a Jackpot High 5, but that would have probably taken my whole wad of imaginary cash for a very high risk bet, if there is such a thing for imaginary cash. Unlike you I don't score very high on the clairvoyance scale. I do think there is a High 5 with my name on it, but that is probably truly California Dreamin.

It’s what you use to buy “Imaginary Wishful Thinking Items”

For me it would be

RED JAGUAR CONVERTABLE
A second home in California + Hawaii
A hot tub inside the house

Thanks. I didn't play so great during the year, but that was a good way to end it and maybe there is something to build on for the future. We horseplayers could hardly carry on, if we weren't eternally optimistic even after some pretty good whuppins, as they say in my neck of the woods.

Cal, that ROI win was the perfect way to end our contest year. You received a very generous return on your super play, probably due to the inclusion of #7, whom many players overlooked, and the absence of Catalina Cruiser from any part of the super. I truly enjoy seeing a well structured ticket.

Again, my congratulations on what I think is an auspicious win as we look forward to next year. You have already given us fair warning to watch out for your dramatic leap up the standings.

Real Quiet, as the contest year comes to a close, I want to express my sincere thanks and admiration for your conscientious ROI scores and droll commentary. I often finish reading it with a smile even if the score next to my name is zero.

Thanks, I hope I can walk the walk as well as talk the talk. I do seem to have more of a clue about what I'm doing than I did in a goodly part of this past contest.

As for RQ, I too have grown to fully appreciate what he does, especially when he has to figure out complicated exotic bets after some scratches. I imagine that a lot of my bets have taken him more time than all the rest of you put together. I apologize for that, but I think that some of us like you and I Joly and RQ and a few others like the challenge of the exotics although I have to say that the straight bet players probably have the best approach to wagering and as proof of that I offer Roamin's outstanding play and Ruffian too.
