I did a favor(work related)for a friend a week or so back.When he asked "what do I owe you" I said a bottle of "Jameson".He delivered,just downed my first of the winter.If this thread starts rambling .... it's the Irish in me  BTW ,anyone need a drunk electrician.  |

So yesterday I played some GP.I did alright,hit a couple Saturday too.I don't know why it is but I have my best ROI at GP.It's the only venue where I have the rare opportunity to withdraw  from my ADW and still keep playing. 1.5 Jameson down..........so far. |

This Tampa contest has gotten the juices flowing.I never did much good in contest playing.Yea, a few here and there but never got into it hard core.Now I can see a little clearer.Some of these races I wouldn't bet Chinese money on but are forced by rule to"bet"the race.Normally like I said I would pass on some of these.When forced you can go off your normal parameters,it's hard ,but easy in a way.Sorry I'm rambling...opps my glass is empty...I'll be right back.  |

We just had a party and I was gifted a bottle of Jameson's Black Barrel and a Glenfiddich "Fire and Cane". Has anyone tasted either of these?

No.Where do you live?  Drink the Irish,give the Scotch to the mailman or paperboy. |

Way back I was working on a new inground pool installation. My father was going over some details about the install with me.I'll try to paint the picture.My dad and mom are from Galway Ireland. Growing up listening to their Irish accent made it sound normal to me.I'm not quite sure why that is.Some of my friends and coworkers would say "I can't understand him".I would reply "he's speaking English" what can't you understand.The gentleman we were doing the install for was from Sligo Ireland.Now HE had an accent. If you ever had a pool installed or saw the process,the first thing they do is dig a BIG ASS hole in your yard.So this ironworker walks up to us and says to my father "you talk like the guy who lives here,what are you Scottish"?My father, all five foot five of him looks up at the six foot four ironworker and says.You want to end up in that hole real fast?The ironworker does a Ralph Kramden,homna homna homna,as my father says I'm Irish. |

Looks like the Tampa area will get some rain tonight.Tomorrow's forecast calls for "chance" whatever that means I think 30% or so. So what say you, ON OFF ? NFI? The two races tomorrow are 5th 8.5f turf and 6th 6f dirt.Last week in TW's contest I made a rookie mistake in not checking the weather.A couple of my plays were not well meant.The problem I have is one I may select is in the 5th.I have to make my pick before I head out to work  well before scratches and what not.Should I look more at the dirt race?Or does an OTT Tampa race look like a better payday? |

Three young ladies just showed up at my door.  When I answered, one about all of 10 years old says "we'll shovel your driveway for six dollars".I said I would love that,only problem is I don't have six dollars.I ask Margie(battle axe)if she has cash.Smallest I have is a twenty she replies.I go back to the girls and say this is the best I can do and hand her the twenty.I say just do a nice job.Ten minutes later my wife went out to tell them enough girls.GREAT JOB,and I didn't spill a drink. |
