Once I cried when I had no shoes, until I met a man with no feet.

If this is all you have to bitch about, stop bitching and be glad you have what you have.

PS: Going to the racetrack at Belmont Park seems to remove any sympathy vote......

What's this supposed to mean?

Is your life so shallow that you think that all who attend the races are degenerates of some sort? I was there for the Breeders' Cup races, which were held in New York for the first time since 1995. These are now broadcast around the world, and people travel here from all over the world to attend. I met and spoke with several from a huge group of Englishmen who made a 48 hour trip to the USA for no other purpose than to watch these races in person. If they merely wanted to, oooh, gamble they could have visited any turf accountant on their own shore and watched on their own TV's. They recognize some beauty in life which you deny. Too bad for you. Go get a copy of Jay Privman's beautiful Breeders' Cup book and open your eyes.

Although it may seem trivial, this is a much bigger problem than most people realize, and has the potential to expand throughout other aspects of life if we're not careful.

I will tell you that the track is a true republic, you either have a winning ticket or you don't, there is no getting by on one's looks or who one knows like you must be used to.
