I still cast away more than a dozen a day.

Most are from strange places but many times I toss and ban IP addresses from the U.S. of A. The Ukraine and Israel and Russia have been breaking balls lately.

My friend NTamm1215 got in today. Nick is a good guy to be at the track with. I once spent an opening day at Aqueduct not long ago with him, Travis, and Vulture. Travis wore a suit and and as the new announcer from Loosey Anna was a big shot to see some NYRA big shots. I was stuck at a table at the Manhattan Terrace in my strapless blue gown and wig.

A lot of people on this board are fine people. With money and with not a lot of money, it matters not. I have railratted with a board member here who is a professor at St. John's University and a horse owner who went out of his way to introduce me to the TVG personalities who were in for a big race day at Belmont. I have railratted for half a century with retired millionaires and guys that were worried about the next deuce after the second race.

Great game is racing. Some great people can be found in it.

The railrats are a whole lot better than the spammers.
