from what i heard on tv about greely is that he is a really large horse and i know so little about horse racing but it seems to me that these huge horses need time to grow into there frame like that 13yr old kid that was 6'2 and uncoordianted as hell till he turned 17 and was 6'5 and a monster on the court or the field just my thinking. i watched the race and felt bad for the horse as he had no chance after the jump from gate.

Honu, where did you grow up?

One of my favorite memories of my first trip to London was of seeing a big double decker bus with a huge ad for Rolling Rock on it that said, "The Pride of Pennsylvania." I thought, "Yeah, not if you're actually from PA." (I prefer Yuengling myself, if I'm drinking a Keystone beer...) No offense to Rolling Rock fans!

Of course, Anheuser-Busch just bought Rolling Rock and I think the last PA factory for it is going to close. Pbbbbttt.

Thanks for the info on Horse Greeley and his female family. Interesting and hilarious to read.

I grew up outside of Harrisburg. I haven't tried Stoney's; I'll have to pick it up next time I'm visiting the 'rents. Yay, Keystoners!
