She doesn't understand that all us old gaseous people with our failing vision because of cataracts and such have difficulty with all that paraphernalia that she surrounds her picks with. Kind of looks like she might have been employed in a tattoo parlor at one time.

All the fru-fra and crazy emojis surrounding your picks. It's over the top and too much. Lets discuss this more in a PM.

I told my son afterwards, "it's a fluke that he even got in". Now I need our resident fact checker to explain that saying.

I was texting with my friend in Jersey and told him the same thing. Must have been a lot of unhappy people and maybe a handful of very happy people. I think the $1 superfecta payoff was over 300 grand. You know, I dismissed him like everybody else, but sometimes I look at those numbers that are supposed to indicate breeding and his were somewhat low. I looked at his pps again. Curlin is his grandsire, but his daddy is Keen Ice. Remember him? He's the one that beat American Pharoah.

Paraphernalia posts, lmao. I can in no way shape or form evaluate Ruffian's posts even by next Saturday, will not even try. Hell, just give her the win. I'd need a few hits of acid to fully appreciate all that stuff. "Colorado catnip" no way will help in this kind of situation, nor does it explain it even to a slight extent.

Kidding, Ruffian, love ya!

Also so much for Monday post position draw giving an early advantage, eh? I didn't bother looking at field until Thursday, never do for Saturday races. "Early" draw did nothing for me, glad I didn't bother watching or paying any attention to it.

I think she knows that I was just joking with her. I think all that stuff she puts with her picks is just a reflection of an artistic personality and one that was excited and enthusiastic about the big show we were all about to experience.
Win or lose, it's always entertaining. In my opinion, the Derby and the Triple Crown never disappoints.

OF COURSE SHE KNOWS YOU ARE KIDDING 🤗
THATS WHAT SHE LOVES ABOUT YOU 💗

DEFINITELY AN “ ARTISTIC PERSONALITY “ 🖌 🎶 🧠

WRITER, 🖊 POET, SONGWRITER, 🎶
PROFESSIONAL ENTERTAINER, 💃
CAT 🐯 AND DOG 🐕 BREEDER, HORSE 🐎 OWNER AND TRAINER
PHILOSOPHICAL THINKER…. 🧠

IMHO
EMOTICONS = DISPLAY IMAGINATION AND CREATIVITY 👌
……. SAD THAT SOME FIND THEM OFFENSIVE 😔

I also immediately emailed Ruff to let her know that my post was in jest. It actually will only take me till Friday to edit her post. It might not be acceptable humor but it's my type of humor.

Me too RQ. I guess we could all sit here and say nothing as if participation here was like a Monday morning staff meeting that we'd all rather not be at, but that is not my way. If I think of something, I think is funny, I usually share it. Can hardly resist it, but it's all in an attempt to amuse. We all have these little quirks of personality that sometimes amuse and sometimes annoy, whether a person chooses to reveal something of themselves or not, it's ok with me.I value everyone here and enjoy everyone's company. So anyway, we've had our confessional and hopefully been absolved of our sins and said a few prayers of repentance and now we can get back to whatever we were doing.
