Last Post Wins

[Regret]

I wish that I could have just had one day (my birthday, too) without the drama from this POS person that keeps infecting my life. She wrote a nasty comment on one of my Facebook photos telling me that she'd see me in hell. ON MY BIRTHDAY. How effing classy is THAT?! :angry:

Jesus. Okay. I'm done with that. Now I can continue with my happy mood. I just needed to vent about it. :laugh:

[Vertigo]

Sweet Caroline had been stuck in my head for days!

[luvthesales]

Wow. They had some serious drama at Kempton today. A horse spoked while in the starting gate, broke out, crashed through the rail, and plunged into the lake. By some miracle, the horse's only physical injury was a minor cut to one of his legs. The Racing Post has a picture of the horse after he crashed through the rail on their website along with the full details. Scary stuff though.


Pretty amazing he didn't get hurt any worse!

I really should have used the spell check before I posted that. :laugh: I should have added that the horse had a hood on over his eyes, so he couldn't see a thing while he was going nuts. That more than likey didn't help the situation.

Spell check more than likey would've helped you in this post, too, but I knew what you meant then and now. :laugh:

Yeah, the hood makes it even scarier to imagine.

Dang, I'm getting to be as bad as Carly. :laugh:


I'm stuck trying to come up with a topic for a fifteen to twenty page research paper over World War II and the Home Front. I wanted to do something over my home state of Delaware, but I'm not sure the topic I came up with is going to work or not. :undecided:

Word. I was just thinking today about going back to school. Then I saw that, with the prerequisites that I DON'T already have, a 36-credit Master's would turn into 51. :tongue:

[Afrashad]

This is the first time that I've ever had to write a paper this long before. Dustin suggested writing it over horse racing, but I'm not there's enough info out there to write that many pages.

I wrote fifteen pages on the absolute insurer rule. If I can do that, surely there is enough info out there for you.

[Silverbulletday]

I was notorious in my non horse classes for figuring out ways to incorporate my obsesseion into my assignments, LOL.

I say go for it Affy!

[Vertigo]

Dang, I'm getting to be as bad as Carly. :laugh:



Hey-o

[mariasmon]

Carly, were you a fan of Henri Le Navigateur?

[Afrashad]

As for right now, I'm leaning towards writing my paper over baseball in WWII. I still have roughly two weeks before I have to turn in the topic to my professor, so I have plently of time to change my mind...again.

[Vertigo]

Carly, were you a fan of Henri Le Navigateur?



Um... no?

[mariasmon]

Yeah, but for all I knew Henri Le Navigateur could have been a completely different horse.

But yes i was.

[Afrashad]

The emergency alert system is working at my school. Boy, I feel safe now. :laugh:

[Commentator]

It's zero degrees right now... in RHODE ISLAND. I looked up my school and the low is -12. I'm never going to escape the cold :sad:

[mariasmon]

The emergency alert system is working at my school. Boy, I feel safe now. :laugh:


I had a class one time that met on the day that the siren was tested monthly and at the same time and in the building on which the siren was anchored. The professor pretty much had to stop teaching for 5 minutes while it went off. The first time, she tried to keep on talking, but nobody could hear her, so it was pointless.

[Afrashad]

They only test the system like once or twice during the semester, so it's not too bad. There's just loud sirens going off outside, and they send a test text to the cell phones.


Frankie and Saeed teamed up for their first Dubai winner about thirty minutes ago. She's another tail swisher. :laugh:

[Afrashad]

I think Frankie's going to get the award for most bizarre ride of the night. That was nothing short of ugly.

Which race?

[Afrashad]

Which race?


Race #4

I believe the announcer commented that Iguazu needed a new rider as he was doing the order of finish. It was hard to tell with the accent.

[Vertigo]

Where at?

[Afrashad]

Where at?


Nad Al Sheba

attheraces.com has the replays up if the dubairacingclub.com site doesn't.

[Vertigo]

I shall look when I get home.

[Afrashad]

It won't go down in history as his finest moment. :tongue: :laugh:

[Vertigo]

I am assuming he is still just as satisfying

[Afrashad]

One would hope for his sake that he still is.


One minute till complete panic time.

[mariasmon]

Is Meydan about to run?

[Afrashad]

No, he didn't get into the race much to my relief. That was going to be a terrible spot for him. My panic moment was the Al Maktoum Challenge Round I. Fortunately, my horse pulled off the win. :cool:

[mariasmon]

Was it Happy Boy?

[Afrashad]

No, Happy Boy finished well up the track. He hasn't been the same since that leg infection he had last year. My Indy was the winner of the race.

[mariasmon]

No, Happy Boy finished well up the track. He hasn't been the same since that leg infection he had last year. My Indy was the winner of the race.


Is he a Godolphin horse now?

[Afrashad]

Is he a Godolphin horse now?


Happy Boy or My Indy? Happy Boy's with Sheikh Hamden bin Mohammed, and My Indy has technically always been with Godolphin. He was left in Dubai when everyone else shipped out though.

[luvthesales]

As for right now, I'm leaning towards writing my paper over baseball in WWII. I still have roughly two weeks before I have to turn in the topic to my professor, so I have plently of time to change my mind...again.


Oooh, good topic.

[Afrashad]

Oooh, good topic.


The more I think about it, the more I think this will be my topic. I have to narrow it down to something less broad, but I still want to put in a bit about the enlistment and drafting of major league players and how that brought about the women's leagues as well as a revival in the Negro leagues. With that in mind, I may look at race and gender in baseball during World War II.


Being the klutz that I am, I tried to get up out of my desk chair when my foot was asleep. My foot turned over, made a lovely cracking sound, and I came pretty close to kissing the floor. My foot isn't swollen, but it hurts like hell to put any weight on it. To make matters worse, I'm flying tomorrow, so I sort of have to be able to walk.

[Somnambulist]

I need my SAT scores, but can't remember what I got on them, let alone the breakdown of each thing.

[Afrashad]

I didn't take the SAT. :cool:

[Regret]

The SAT is overrated.

[Silverbulletday]

I didn't take the SAT. :cool:


Hence the reason you are at FSU. :grin: JK, did you just take the ACT?

I'm so ready to go back to the farm, but I did just get off the phone with Dan Pride, and he actually remembered me. That was absolutely amazing. :shocked:

It's going to be -3* tomorrow am. *dies*

[Afrashad]

Simon and Saeed have a tendency to be a bit on the contradicting side. Case and point would be their respectative statements on Sos Brillante. Simon stated that her win was unexpected because she hadn't shown a lot, and that she had more than a bit of an attitude. He also stated that she would go on to the UAE 1,000 Guineas. Then, Saeed stated that they would look at the 1,000 Guineas, but no decision would be made until closer to the race. He also said she was a nice filly. Hmmm.....

[Afrashad]

Hence the reason you are at FSU. :grin: JK, did you just take the ACT?


Yeah, the ACT was the only one I took because most Southern schools prefer it over the SAT.

[Somnambulist]

The SAT is overrated.


No kidding. It's the biggest joke there is. According to it, I should probably not be doing as well as I am in school. Then again, I fell asleep half way through it.

[luvthesales]

It's going to be -3* tomorrow am. *dies*


Amen, sister. Of course, I realize I won't be as affected as you will be, but still. It's the principle. :grin:

Yeah, everyones pens were freezing today, and a couple of us went "ice skating" around the barn after lunch, LOL.

I'm so tired of calling all my friends in FL and listening to them complain about it being "cold" down there. After being in Lex for only a week, I can already feel the difference between 30* and 14*. There's a HUGE difference - so just stop complaining!!! I was joking that I'd be mucking stalls in a bikini when I got back to Ocala today, haha!

[Afrashad]

50 something degrees is cold though. :laugh:

Whoa, I did not read that as 'pens'. :shocked: Didn't I tell you that would happen? Mechanical pencils (or space pens, apparently) are the only way to go. :grin:

The good news is that 14 and -3 don't feel all that different, IMO. I mean, we've already determined that anything below 60-65 is crap.... Like you, I can tell the diff between 30 and 14, but not when it gets any colder than that. It's just 'misery' with a number assigned to it.

[luvthesales]

50 something degrees is cold though. :laugh:


Well DUH. :tongue:

[Silverbulletday]

50 something degrees is cold though. :laugh:


I would have agreed with you a week ago. Now, however, when the temp suddenly spikes to 30* from 14* I feel the urge to peel a few layers off and rejoice. :laugh:

And I wouldn't know about everyone's you know what's freezing luv, since I'm not equipped with one and don't have one to experiment with. :wink:

[luvthesales]

Well, I figured it was bad enough (cold enough) even if you weren't whipping it out. :grin:

That's great; congratulations. :smiley:

[Silverbulletday]

Thanks luv. Only a select few of us know how truly hellish that sale is, LOL. And they freely admitted to being hard on women in their shedrow, so that made me feel even better, even tho I didn't really feel like I was working hard. It was definitely not the hardest I've ever worked at a sale, it was just the most awkward circumstances.

[CoronadosQuest]

0 with windchill of -17*F now. But this morning, when I was going to work, was -28*F with windchill of -40*F

Ohhhh yeah.



Delta totally destroyed my suitcase and lost some of the stuff in it. This was after it arrived eight hours late, so we had to go back to the report the damage. They have to pay to replace everything, so I ended up getting a new suitcase on sale for $29.99. The original price was $79.99, so it wasn't too bad of a deal.

[Somnambulist]

Gaaahhh.. I just got back from seeing "My Bloody Valentine". :shocked:

i think the part of my brain which processes information has just lost 1% of it's cells after watching that

[Silverbulletday]

LOL, D. The Gator rap was a lot cooler.

This has been such a long day of waiting. Probably the highlight was forgetting that pesky thing about not being able to have liquids in your carry on and getting all if my toiletries confiscated. I can be such a blonde. So I'll be headed to Ulta tomorrow to replace my Clinque facial stuff. That aucked *** to get that taken away. But there's nothing a full stomach can't take care of - and this bartender at deSha's is completely in awe of me. :laugh:

I cannot wait to be home.

[Commentator]

I've been at school for like eight hours total and I'm already more drunk than I have been ever, in like my entire life. Wow, is that bad? I'm li,e, super drunk. A LOT. It is great to be back.

[Regret]

Dustin speaks the truth. You're not drunk enough if you can still type correctly. :laugh:

[CoronadosQuest]

I agree with Reget and Dustin. When I am SUPER DRUNK, I can't even walk, let alone type hahaha. Or at least... not that I can remember.

[Commentator]

Oh, I could barely walk last night. Or talk, or function. And typing that took like five minutes of deleting and retyping. WHY I was self-conscious enough to write properly when I had spent the previous half hour lying on the floor of the study area talking about football with two guys I had never met before...

I don't think you do. It's okay when you're talking about the racing side because horses are moved between the two operations all the time. Zada Belle has made four moves between Godolphin and Darley alone. When you start talking about Godolphin buying farms, stallions, or broodmares and giving stud deals, then there's a bit of a problem there.

Yes, a that person asks that question so often that I want to scream.

[Silverbulletday]

LOL, flipping thru his/her posts is a trip - it's almost like they're a TBH troll. Almost all they post are links to articles, and when they do post something else it's completely bizarre or severely delayed. :laugh:

[Afrashad]

Yes, a that person asks that question so often that I want to scream.


It is rather annoying. I also don't like how they post the article after someone has already posted the info. I'm sure we can all figure that out on our own.

[mariasmon]

Whoa. I was a little confused when I saw Country Star in the Darley silks, then it dawned on me. Don't hate her because she's beautiful. And crazy.

[mariasmon]

I really want to like Life is Sweet. I loved her sister. But I can't stand those Wygods.

I had too much to do today. Heck, I still have too much to do.

[Commentator]

Agggh I bought a textbook off ebay, but I can't pay for it yet because I messed up my paypal account and got my mom locked out of her bank account (long story). So the textbook isn't shipping until tomorrow at the earliest.

And what do you know? It's my genetics book, and I have homework due next monday. From the book. Agh.

I feel like I achieved a lot today despite waking up drunk. I even went to church even though I'm not being religious at all. It was very interesting.

[Genuine Risk]

Hamsters, one day, shall rule the world.
Or not.
Nope. :kiss:

Heh. Very random.

[Silverbulletday]

I definitely got a lot done today. I went shopping, watched the Steelers game, did four loads of laundry, more importantly, put all that laundry AWAY, and rescued my poor paddock boots from the Keeneland mud. Ahhhh, I can now go to bed and worry about more important things tomorrow.

[Regret]

Who is Genuine Risk?

The horse?

You. You're clearly a poster who's been here before, since you posted 13 times on your first day. Most people don't dive in quite like that. Who are you?

Barbecue Eddie is entered in Dubai on Thursday. I didn't realize Shadwell had bought him. Other entries include Desert Party, Regal Ransom, Hatta Fort, and Jay Peg. :cool:

Enough of this nonsense. Lock this thread. NOW!

Desert Party!!! Oh man, I didn't know he was healed enough to be racing. That horse is awesome :grin:

[Silverbulletday]

I *finally* hit the gym again this evening. It's time for me to start with the whole portion control thing again - along with cutting all fast food.

[Silverbulletday]

Gerty, why do you still have that godawful photo in your signature?

[Afrashad]

Desert Party!!! Oh man, I didn't know he was healed enough to be racing. That horse is awesome :grin:


I thought you would like that news. It's a seven furlong race, and he should draw into it. Of course, Godolphin could always change their minds about running him.

[Silverbulletday]

It's time for bed. Another day from hell tomorrow. Oye.

[Regret]

I'm bored. Did everyone go to bed?

With Obama taking over today, I shall start building that nuclear bunker in my backyard. :lipsrsealed:

That was horrendously fantastic. :laugh:

My favorite part of this picture is how Bill, Hillary, Al Gore & Tipper, Barbara Bush (younger) and Lynne Cheney are all visible in the background. I wonder if they are thinking about her hat or the music?

I was thinking the same thing. :laugh:

[Afrashad]

I'm in. I'll bring the booze.


Somehow, I knew we could count on you to bring alcohol. :laugh:

[Silverbulletday]

Alcohol and condoms...my contribution to the club. Oh and I have a few Quizno's coupons on my wallet (free subs!) that expire at the end of the month. I'll share those, too.


The coupons won't be too useful in the bunker.


The coupons? Like the condoms will be? Typical guys. *rolleyes*

[Afrashad]

We should put the adorable guy on the right in the bunker too. :kiss:

[attachment deleted by admin]

[Silverbulletday]

Maybe the condoms would be a good idea then? We can't exceed the bunker's population limit, after all. :police:

[Afrashad]

We currently have five people in this bunker, so there's some wiggle room for a few more people. Hmmmm......who else should we allow in?

[Silverbulletday]

I'd ask to bring Fergie, but he's kind of old for a bunker. I'll have to go with some one younger. Liiiiiiiiike, hmmm, Tim Tebow? :grin:

[Afrashad]

Oh yay. :tongue:

[Silverbulletday]

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat? :laugh: I'm sure he'll do his best to be un-obnoxious.

[Afrashad]

I'm sure he will as well.

[Silverbulletday]

Well, reserve two spots in the bunker for Affy Jr. and Silver Jr. :grin: What are we up to now? Seven?

[Silverbulletday]

American Idol auditions were held at Churchill Downs. How awesome is that? :laugh:

[Afrashad]

Well, reserve two spots in the bunker for Affy Jr. and Silver Jr. :grin: What are we up to now? Seven?


Yep, we're up to seven now. I think the limit will be about ten or so, but no more than twelve. We do have some undeveloped land behind my backyard to work with if it comes to that.

[Afrashad]

As much as we do adore you, Dustin, I'm not letting that into my bunker.

[Afrashad]

I'm sure she does, but she's not getting in. It's bad enough Tebow's going to be in it.

[Afrashad]

Yes, we're all about democracy in the bunker.

[Afrashad]

I'm sure if we gave him a football he would be happy as a clam and wouldn't have time to preach.

[Silverbulletday]

So two of five people vote and the man I picked to help save the human race with is booted out? Not. Cool.



I'm sure if we gave him a football he would be happy as a clam and wouldn't have time to preach.


I'm quite sure I could keep him happy as a clam. :grin:

[Afrashad]

So two of five people vote and the man I picked to help save the human race with is booted out? Not. Cool.


It's going to take quite some time to get in touch with Sheikh Majid to get his thoughts on Tebow's inclusion, so we'll leave it up to mons.

[Afrashad]

However, a tie favors Affy (her bunker), so the nays win regardless


I was attempting to be kind and left that little detail out.

[Silverbulletday]

I'm quite sure I could keep him happy as a clam. :grin:


Man, send you to Keeneland for a few days and I become chopped liver :wink:


Well, until you've become a studly 6'3" 240 lb piece of raw muscle and power who's won two national championships and a Heisman, you and everyone else pretty much are chopped liver compared to him. :laugh:

[Silverbulletday]

Oh, OK, so we were just a democracy until I wanted to bring Tebow in, huh? Now we're a dictatorship. I get it. :tongue:

And ultimately Tebes and me both have the same chance of being a star in the NFL...0% :grin:


But at the end of the day, he's just soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo handsome. :grin: Who wouldn't want to be stuck in a bunker with him besides the two of you - a straight man and an FSU student?

[Afrashad]

Mons may not be a fan either. I have no real opinion on the matter, so you two can fight over allowing Tebow in or not.

[Silverbulletday]

All of the straight men?


Only the heathen ones. :wink: :grin: :kiss:

[Silverbulletday]

Hmm, if Tebow had his choice of multiple bunkers bunkers, what makes you think he'd miss ours? And don't use the "I'd make it worth his while..." rationale - there are thousands of chicks who'd do the same and then some


What makes you think Majid would want to be in Affy's instead of his daddy's???

And btw, that thing in your sig has GOT to go if V won't kill you for deleting it!

Settle down - I haven't even started disputing that one yet


Settle down? I'm more than half asleep here. I couldn't be any more settled if I tried. :cool:

And if you start objecting to that one, you'd better find yourself another bunker to hide out in.

[Afrashad]

And if you start objecting to that one, you'd better find yourself another bunker to hide out in.


That would be a rather safe conclusion. :laugh:

Pffffft - you want me in this one too much :tongue:


If I can't have Timmy in my fantasy doomsday bunker, then I'd rather not have a fantasy bunker right now. :tongue:

[Silverbulletday]

Oh sweet Jesus.

I'm also moving to have Mons' cousin invited to the bunker. And if she declines, she'll be kidnapped and forced in against her will. I say that in the un-creepiest way possible.


How charming!

You only qualify as Mr. Charm if the handcuffs are pink and fluffy.

If this attachment works, I've created the current bunker plan.

[Silverbulletday]

I gotta say, that had me in stitches, Affy. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:



As a showing of good grace and space saving, I will will share my bed with SBD. Or I'll share her bed with her. Whichever works.


Um, I thought we'd established that you'll have to beat Timmy away from my bed first. Good luck with that, btw.

[Afrashad]

Perhaps SBD should have a back-up plan to avoid such a fate.

[Silverbulletday]

He always shows in my fantasies. :grin:

[Afrashad]

Hmmm....if we're going to go by who actually shows up in our fantasies, then I should change mine. :tongue:

I'm on permanent "invisible" status on FB for that reason. When I go on FB, I generally go on to check real quick, not to sit there for a half hour talking to people.


Yeah, it's kind of tiresome.

I believe we're now up to eight people in the bunker, so there's room for at least two more people. Space is limited, so act now, people.

[Silverbulletday]

We need an attendance sheet!

Af
SBD
Mons
D
Majid
Tebow
Frankie
Affy Jr
SBD Jr

Now, take out the two juniors, and there's room for about four more people. Of course, things would then get crowded later on.

[Silverbulletday]

I'd like to invite Carly, Commy, CQ, and Luv.

And we're definitely not giving up the juniors!

Brown and Dutrow liked Aretha's hat as much as I did!

Rick seriously looks "Aunt Jemima-ish" with Aretha's hat on. Brownie just looks embarrassed. :laugh:

[Afrashad]

So, I took out a loan for my last year of school. According to the Citibank, they sent my money to the school on the 9th. When I check my fiancial aid status on the school website, they show that they don't have the money, which means I was charged a $100 late fee for my tutition. I now have to hike my way across campus to deal with this mess, and best guess is the school screwed up somewhere. Just my luck of course.

In other news, I hate the fiancial aid office. They didn't authorize my *private* loan due to some federal aid form that wasn't filled out. Yet, they disbursed last semester's money without this form.

[mariasmon]

Can the hat come to the bunker, too?

[Afrashad]

I suppose we can let the hat into the bunker so long as it doesn't take up too much space.

[mariasmon]

This is sounding more and more like a Simpsons episode...

[Afrashad]

After I was informed that my loan money had been sent back to Citibank, my dad called Citibank to find out if the money had indeed been sent back. Nope. Citibank hasn't received any money back from this stupid school, which begs the question of where's my money. :angry:
