I have certainly heard from him. I have to give kudos to Samyn. He is an excellent handicapper. Nice guy too.

To good for this board I guess

To bad, I liked the kid, until he turned like a rabbit fox.

You'd have to walk all night, thumb some rides, and get on a bus to travel far enough to meet a nicer kid than Samyn.

That fellow is a joy to be near at the racetrack and I have told him many times that at just under 6 foot I intend to hit that mid-60s growth spurt to be as tall as he is.

Greg is a wonderful fellow and a fine handicapper. And a kinder or more gentle man you will never find.

I understand that some regulars have drifted off from this board. I also understand that some folks here find it difficult to tolerate one another. I further understand that I spend a lot of time biting my right hand deeply when things get posted here and chase some fantastic posters away but I let things go.

Yes, Chuckles.

I was drilled by Mrs. Schwenk and Miss Mulgannon more than 50 years ago about grammar and usage.

Kids would have to go to the board and parse sentences with lines of chalk and explain to the class the noun, the verb, the dangling participles, the idiomatic expressions, and why Valerie's breasts were becoming things of interest in the 7th grade.
