Makes me think of all of those summers on the road to Santa Fe. Love you! (NukeDad) I still think of those days every time I head Eddie Money. Or, as they say in Mexico; Eduardo Dinero. Love ya back!

I kept rewinding it over and over. The only thing that would have made it any better is if I had placed a bet. (NukeDad) There are a lot of people wishing they had made that bet.

Let's see how you can spin it!

I am a big horse racing fan. Calvin Borel has rode regularly in the meets at Oaklawn in my home town for years. I have wagered plenty of money on him. I prefer the years when our local horses fare well like Smarty Jones, Afleet Alex, and Curlin, but I was happy to see Borel ride in a long shot. Yes I know only Smarty Jones won the derby out of the 3 horses I mentioned. Afleet Alex won the other 2 legs of the triple crown and Curlin became the most famous horse in all of horse racing. (NukeDad) Advice also had ties to Sunland Park. 13 was an unlucky number for them; that's where they finished. <abbr><em>Otters last blog post..<a href="http://lifeofanewdad.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-was-awarded-withan-award.html" rel="nofollow">I Was Awarded with...an Award</a></abbr></em> Good story.

I love the story of your brother sneaking into all the pictures, that's hysterical. The only thing you seemed to leave out was a story of you 'stepping in it' while at the track. I bet there's another awesome post hiding in there somewhere. (NukeDad) Steppin' in it? Thankfully I didn't have to pull stall mucking duty. We were mainly inside, away from the stalls and the....aroma. If low expectations are a sign of future greatness, I got it made in the shade!
