No complaints today

Did not hit crap at Colonial. I played a Pick 4 and 3 at Belmont, both late. I hit the late Pick 3 which to my surprise payed $83 for a dollar. I had a couple nice little exactas as well at Belmont. A fun day, I actually made a little over a $50 profit when it was all said and done, started with $150. Darn 10 Horse at Colonial ate up $50 of that. Fun day, real fun day.

How did everyone elses day go?

I agree with that, but it seems more and more people here just can't get enough e-beef..

Wish I could tell you how my day went at the windows, but I didn't play!

Hes a nervous guy right now. hes at the girlfriend's house at a party for her mother. hes met mom but is now meeting the rest of the family for teh first time. Women will never now how excruciating that is. I'd rather sit through two root canals. Most men's parents are real nice to a women they bring to meet them, they are just glad that somone wants them. With women's family,man, its like being under a microscope. Its enough to make you completely insane. Poor bastard.

Oh my lord that is pain in the 10th degree. I swear to God one time I almost did a number #2 in my pants when I first met one of my girlfriends parents - eyes looking everywhere, what do they think of me, my shirt. Yes mam, yes sir.

yeah same here. yes sir, no sir, than you maam. then it gets even trickier, if you grab too many beers they think you are a drunk, if you refuse all drinks they think you are an alcoholic. So you have to have one and sip it slowly for like 2 hours even after its warm as toast.
Then there is the questioning( in subtle and not so subtle ways) about basically your life history. Its like being interrogated under those bright lights the cops use in old movies.
