I just called Chuck, and told him we are standing by, dancing to the music ... technical difficulties, working on it.

I asked him what he was about to say (as it DID sound important) and he forgot ....

Edit: 4:47pm it's a replay now .....

Just give Chuck a hammer & duct tape and things can be easily repaired...

Bell South was working on ISDN broadcast lines at CD media center and accidently cut us off. Spent 1.5 hours trying to restore. Utterly maddening. .

You sure you guys just didn't want to head out to dinner early, try to catch some trainers relaxed over a beer, get them to spill about their Derby horses? You know, "journalistic research" ?

Steve, on the Aqueduct pick 6 there was one ticket on Allaboutmack, it would have paid the same as Absolute Return. The only carryovers were to the 2 and the 7.
