I still dump more than a dozen a day, mostly from Russia, Germany, The Netherlands, Israel, Latvia, and the British Virgin Islands.

The best user name ever run off still remains Heavenly Beaver. Nobody has ever topped that one.

I've been booting some folks that no doubt should not be and I regret that immensely.

peislander - sign up again and I will activate your account.

That's great that PEIslander wants to get on board again.

I was getting seriously worried about the guy after Saratoga last year.

The admin log is 39 pages long from May with booted spammers. I knew that eventually somebody legitimate would get kicked.

I would urge all sign-ons who truly want to be part of this board to drop me an e-mail at quarterpole@budweiser.com so that I will know you are legit and can activate your account without worrying about being deluged with porn spam.

Maybe that Russian lady Heavenly Beaver can send some photos as well.

peislander is in and I extend a hearty welcome and regrets for the toss-off.

Heavenly Beaver only needs $1,200 from me to verify my winning 3 million-dollar ticket in the Beaver Bang Lottery in Russia. An easy cash advance will soon have me a wealthy man. It's good to be with Beaver if you don't have to drink with it for long, marry it, or stay with it once you find your trousers.

It's also good if your wife of 36 years doesn't visit this board.

After a day at the races at home from Saratoga I have 26 new members looking to get in.

Folks from Latvia, Israel, Canada, U.S., British Virgin Islands, Serbia, Haiti, and Handjob, Iowa are knocking on the door. Spammers and viruses and dirty young girls that my mother would never permit me to meet.

This board could go away shortly. I'll have a beer on the White House lawn with the comminity organizer and the Harvard affirmative-action clown but I'm getting popped too many times here by dorks from around the world.

I have almost had it.

Go run a web site and see what happens.

Thanks KP, I am still around, mostly just lurking. It was a perfect storm that took me away from racing last year. I changed jobs last October, so I became an 8-4 guy instead of a 4 am to noon guy. My bank roll I build up in 06 and 07 got demolished in the spring and summer of 08. The raising of the take out 1 % completely infuriated me, and the final straw seem to be that Pick 4 that Friday Travers Weekend on Hidden Glance, it took me a long time to get over that tough beat and lead me to the break I was looking for and needed.

But Saratoga seems to get everyone motivated. Good luck everyone and have fun under the tree.
