Jerry was clear enough upon that.

The problem was that a charge was leveled against me that I left unanswered for a while and unfortunately you can't do that in this P.C. world. If you don't defend yourself that kind of garbage can stick, unless you're adept at P.C. spin, which I am not, because I reject it outright. If you are adept at putting perceptions over principle then you really can have a retard on your hands and promote it your way. (I'm sure you can find applications for what I've just said, you needn't look much further than the Rag figure error conduct.) It was all related to a some very old tongue in cheek posts that centered around the Japanese buying all our stallions and somehow the conflict in the mid-east wound its way into the nonsense. Which is not all that surprising, because that conflict has very far reaching tentacles.

Are there any other words you would like me to refrain from using Jimbo66?...lol I mean I should know so that I don't offend anyone else right? What about "asskisser", does that one bother you?...lol I don't know, if I was a retard I think I'd refer to myself as "mentally challenged" and then when I heard the insensitive use of the word "retard" I would know that it didn't apply to me. Maybe it’s poor manners, bad grammar and slang that you dislike. That’s something we can agree upon, I generally dislike them too, but I despise stupidity most of all.

Well, now Dollase tells us!:

"He was still a little tender in that area [the day after the Hollywood Futurity]," his trainer, Craig Dollase, said earlier this week. "Not pounding on it each day, it should come around fast. We'll leave the patch on and let the crack grow out. We'll look to challenge Declan's Moon again down the road.

Of course, the dilemma is did you believe him then or do you believe him now? Mr Dollase, do you mean to tell us that you ran a horse with an ostensible future on that Hollywood "track" with a quarter crack that you "discovered" the day before the race? Mr. Dollase, if he's really "still a little tender", do you consider yourself "mentally challenged"?

You have to like the upcoming Malibu. I know its California racing, but a change of surfaces was sorely needed.

An otherwise,

"Merry Christmas to All", even Frank, who is finally positioned to at least know how fast horses ran.
