LOL! I love flying and as long as the plane is still in the air, a little turbulence is cool! I love it when planes fly beside a storm. It's the neatest thing to see!

Thanks for taking a look. It was just about as great as I could have imagined! It was amazing seeing Dave after six years!

My trip was amazing!!! After a fairly uneventful trip out (haha pretty much how you want it when you’re 39,000 feet up!) I finally got out to Kitchener. My friend, Dave, who I was there to see picked me up from the airport. On Saturday we went out to Port Stanley, a small sea town about a...

He's gorgeous! I'm really looking forward to meeting him this week! (and you and the rest of the critters too of course LOL!)

Yep!! I'll be in London for a week Thanks! I think she's pretty great!

My cat, Lilo, loves suitcases, boxes, bags anything she can sleep in. She's always been like this. When she was a kitten she used to push all of my stuff out of my purse so that she could sleep in it. I'm leaving on Friday for Ontario and of course am packing. So...she has been trying to get...

LMAO!!! I love it! There have been some wacky names out there. The worst one was Squirtle Squirt. I decided he was no good on the principle of his being named after a pokemon haha...but he was actually a fairly good racer. He won the BC Sprint, was the 2001 Champion Sprinter, made over $1m. I...

There is a petition in support of ringing eight bells at the 2009 Kentucky Derby in tribute of the great filly who was euthanized at the derby two weeks ago. Here is an article giving information on this movement. Eight Bells for Eight Belles? "The phrase "eight bells" notes the ending of one...

He is incredibly handsome!!! Matt- I sent you a PM awhile ago, did you get it?

I have made this recipe twice, following all the directions to the letter and both times it has come out rock hard. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but if I can make it so that it doesn't come out like this I would love it, because it tastes awesome!

Nicanor looks like a very nice boy! He's beautifully put together. It's unlikely he will be as talented as Barbaro, most siblings (even full siblings) are not going to be as talented as a Superhorse sibling. Bold Ruler, for example, has I believe five full siblings and none of them are the...

Just Us In Texas and Bunnylady, very well said. I have nothing to add that has not already been said.

For those who would like to discuss the ethis of horse racing. Please feel free to do so on this thread!

She ran a great race. I think we should all keep her connections in mind, it will be a very difficult time for them.

I'm sorry to be rude mininik, but I don't think that is an appropriate comment at the moment to us who are mourning this beautiful filly. We love the sport, every sport has it's downsides and at the moment I would appreciate not having a debate of ethics on this thread. Please feel free to make...

RIP Eight Belles The gallant filly collapsed after running second to Big Brown. She broke both front ankles and was immediately euthanized.

I am envious! I have never seen a Triple Crown. That is my greatest dream, to see a Triple Crown champion made before I die!! Baffert is still training. He is a California trainer out in Hollywood Park. He just hasn't had a Derby horse lately. He is still training many champions, including nine...

I never got to see Ruffian race I am too young. I've only see the greats caught on film on youtube! The first breakdown I saw on TV was Charismatic in 1999's Belmont.

Richard Dutrow, Jr. trains Big Brown. You can get all the info at www.kentuckyderby.com It is so, so horrible when that happens. The first time I ever went to a track a horse broke down and had to be euthanized right in front of me. I was 13 at the time. You could not have said it any better.

It is a hard image. I'm sorry it has soured you to racing.
