O.K., so I hear that "Street Sense" is a 9-2 favorite in the Kentucky Derby...

I lay down some cash...

Watch the race and see him 2nd from last...

Turn off the T.V.

Wake up this morning and see that he won by some sort of miracle.

I'm a happy camper today

Herb, I was going to reimburse you for your loss of money on that fight, but after seeing your avatar, I'm having second thoughts about sending you money.

Second that!!!
Herb... nevermind. I can't figure out how to say it without stepping on your toes. Whatever your opinion is, I respect that.

My friend's horse almost broke the track record at delta downs the same day I think. They won a big purse and she won quite a bit betting on him... The odds were against him.
