Hey I do have a rant after all... I just missed a phone call from my brother who is on a 100ft yacht somewhere off the coast of Greece where he just finished dinner prepared by the yacht's chef. I'm ranting because I would have loved to talk to him, not because I'm jealous. And of course I am a wee bit jealous.

Smarty Jones- a half blind, race horse who might win the Triple Crown on Sunday

Faina-Smarty Jones won the Kentucky Derby and galloped away with the Preakness. First undefeated race horse going into the Belmont since Seattle Slew. It's also a story made for the movies. He was hurt severely when he reared up in the starting gate and they thought he wouldn't race again. His owner is 80 years old, in a wheelchair with oxygen. The jockey had personal problems ie booze and fights and turned his life around. Smarty races at Philadelphia Park and was named after the owner's mother in law. They are comparing him to the great Seabiscuit...
