"Mark my words.."
« on: June 05, 2004, 06:05:21 PM »
"Mark my words, that horse is gonna win the triple crown!"  

My World Studies teacher was wrong, I see, now that Smarty Jones has come in second in the Belmont Stakes.  Since the daughter of one of my school's teachers, a Ms Vannozzi, is the fiancee of the jockey, my whole school has Smarty Jones fever.  The whole thing just sickens me.

What is there to be so excited about?  A bunch of fucking horses run around a track and try to beat each other to the end.  What's so special about that?

What do make of this whole Smarty Jones business?

Three "sports" I don't get:

Car racing
Horse racing
Dog racing

Around and around and around and around and around...

I don't care for fishing much, and I REALLY don't understand watching it on television...

I come from a long line of rednecks, so watching fishing on weekend mornings is a ritual for my father and me...

Now bowling...I don't understand watching THAT on television.

Figure skating, too. Last time there was a hot figure skater on, I went to go hug the TV and it fell on me.

My mom watches figure skating a lot.  It crosses the line between good gay and bad gay.  



That's good gay.



That's bad gay.

It was rigged. I saw the jockey open a secret compartment on his horse and removed some weights. Fucking cheaters.

See? This is what happens when you don't have Olivier Gruner watching over the race.

Money. Lots of money to be made if you pick the right ones.

You mean that I've been wasting all this time scabbing money off my parents when I could have just gambled?

I'm not going to dignify that with the response you're looking for.

Hey, I like NASCAR.  There's more to it than "around and around", there's pit stops, tire and fuel strategies, alliances with other drivers....and the wrecks!  Gotta love the wrecks (as long as the driver gets out of the car ok).

And the drivers are really hot.

I'm not sure... I'd need more than a head shot to decide.  :wink: Maybe like a bikini shot. You never know but she could have a sixth toe. I could never make love to a women with six toes!

Six toes on one foot or just six toes total? That would be weird to have four on one and two on the other. Especially if the two were the big one and the little one only, so there'd be this huge gap inbetween the two.

But you could pick your nose with her small toe. That's not bad.

I just found out that editing your post and not doing a damn thing except hitting the submit button gives you loot.
