Unfortunately what more can be done if racing continues to not cater to the fan by early retirements, the wagering mess and the preceived dishonesty of trainers among other things?

I wish I lived near Hollywood because from what I was watching on TV it looks like they were really trying their best to bring a good product to their customers.

no you don't, trust me on that one.

flying into LA is like watching a scene from a nightmarish borg planet. concrete everywhere extending in all directions for much further than the eye can see, even from an airplane.

hours of traffic to get anywhere. pollution, stupid people, and constant noise.

though, inglewood, the town HP is in, is a lovely place. it's amazing what iron bars over every window and door can do to pretty up a place!

you can get really good ribs at least down at mr. jims. you need no teeth to eat our beef!

best bbq i've ever been to.
