New saying is, in polite company, “Don’t bring up religion, politics, or Bob Baffert.”

I made mint juleps for the first time today for my wife and myself to watch the Derby. Rather strong, but pretty good. It was a heck of a race, and very enjoyable.

I think if you hit the “Escape” the popup closes and you can browse around.

Today’s “Frank and Ernest” has a horse losing by a nose in a photo finish because of mugging for the camera...the cartoonist didn’t anticipate a three-horse photo finish.

Thanks. That camera angle behind the horses enabled a great view of that jockey’s boldness. The horse in front of him was moving to the rail. If he had waited even one second more, he couldn’t have squeezed through. Saw his chance and took it.

Reminded me of the swimming events in the Olympics. Milliseconds off from each other.

Less than a nose. Half a nose.

We had a bit of Basil Hayden as a quick toast.

I reasoning is he was fading.

He ran a great race for the exact distance.

Belmont is a mile and a half, though.

Maybe he’s got it in him.

I kinda think that you run the race you’re racing. Not the one before, and not the one later. You may be right, though. We will see if Mystic Dan can pull it off.

Nice.

He really did run a great race.

18-1 but he pulled it off.
