Great thread.. Have really enjoyed reading a lot of these.. You guys on here really get me to laughing sometimes. Wish I had a story, but as you know I'm from Texas and us Texans according to some don't eat the right "brain" food. So most of the time I don't rember sh*&$...lol

From the looks of your post I think you ate one too many meals at the Wiener Circle. I need the decoder to figure out what the hell you are saying. |

Tommy, how many days do you think it would take you to find Central and Montrose if you went by yourself? |

Actually, my dad grew up right there so I know that area pretty well. If I remember correctly, we used to get off at the Montrose 90 exit and then zoom by that park, gas station,Kentucky Fried Chicken, and my favorite Chinese restaurant, TONY's......I haven't been in the area for some years though since my Grandma passed a while back. |

East to West.... Western>>California>>Kedzie>>Central. Each of those are, indeed, 8 blocks apart. From the Montrose Saloon to Central is 13 blocks, not 40. And it's maybe a mile. 13, 40.... all must seem the same to you when you are drunk and sitting on the bus stop bench for a 1/2 hour. It's understandable. |

In the Sportsbook at Bellagio a couple years back with a group of friends none of whom were into horse racing. Had someone's leftover past performances in front of me and happened to notice a race at some junk track a few minutes to post with six need the lead horses and one capable closer. The capable closer was going off at 7-1 so I figured what the hell I'll make a bet. Wound up just playing a $2 exacta straight of the closer over the speed horse I thought was most likely to hold on. I tell my friends to watch this race, the one horse will start out way behind and blow by them all at the end and win. The break from the gate and it really looks hopeless, he must be about 20 lengths back. My friends are all laughing at me and I tell them to wait and gain more confidence that I'm right as the fractions roll on the screen and they continue to laugh oblivious to what 21.4 means. Sure enough it plays out exactly as I predicted and he blows by and as an added bonus the speed horse I played in second holds on for second. Only paid $65 but looking like a fricken genius in front of all my friends was priceless. Only bet I placed that day.
