Now, I know Andrew and I are the only two here who care about this (though you all should - and it kind of makes me sad that you don't), but the Derby's tomorrow! 130th Kentucky Derby, right? Okay, so this is what I've got:
Borrego (20-1) WIN
Smarty Jones (9-2) PLACE
The Cliff's Edge (4-1) SHOW
That is how it's gonna be. It's true. And you can't deny it - Churchill Downs is THE racetrack. The shiznat, I say. And it's a fuckin' rider. You don't want to fuck with it, because you know it brought its gang (?) with it.
Yes, I'm gangsta. I know. Too much to handle at this point.
I really hope that Minister Eric doesn't win or place or even show because I really hate Pat Day. In fact, no - I hope Day falls off his horse and is trampled over.
That's all. I decided to bring some middle Eastern (American ;)) love into this place.

I wanted Imperialism to win too, but he got off to a bad start.

You've got to be specific! I want to know that I've been in the same places people here have been in. Like, I'm in St. X (Andrew's HS) A L L the time, so that's no fun. I've been to numerous places in Cincy, and I'm sure Joey Kentucky's been there. So . . . Elaborate.

ok... the places i can remember their names:
Kentucky Horse Park and International Museum of the Horse
Bluegrass Speedway (didn't actually see a race :? )
Louisville Motor Speedway
and we've been to Frankfort to do stuff
Amanda
-
No fun! What about more LOUISVILLE?! What restaurants?
-
um...
i don't really remember the names...
we go to a lot of Mexican type places
Grandpa always takes us to Alameda Bar and Grill and then there's this one placw where they serve pizza and they have this organ player at the place and he plays like everything, and the organ is really huge. forgot what it's called though...

But no, I meant SUBDIVISION (houses ALL look the same - it's crazy) not SUBURBS. I live in the actual suburbs.
